I'm so disappointed that Kim Sang Kyung of Great King Sejong didn't win anything! He always gets shut out at awards.

I'm really happy for Lee Yoon-ji - she looks awesome as always.

no more drama like MBC awards!!

KBS all ppl deserved to get that right

WHOA! Sung yuri and Park min young look like twins!!!!! lol

yes this and SBS's awards were beautifuly done...
I'm so happy about SIG winning the Top Excellence Awards (aja aja oppa).
and YES JGS looks really great (compared to yesterday <_<)
BTW dear javabeans... you forgot to add Choi Jung Won with Lee Ha Na in the Excellence in a miniseries... they both got the award.

I guess the third time IS the charm. Out of the three award shows, most of them looked great at this one.

I still got a chuckled in at Jang Geun-seok's look. He was all man neck down, and then a 3 year girl with a little pony tail, and big glasses. hehe, too funny

Kang Ji-hwan and Sung Yuri looks really good together! Too perfect... almost.

kbs awards is nice too. I specially love the dress of yoon ah..lovely dress and very charming actress..
I can t really say if one deserve an award more than another one cos I drop the quasi totality of all dramas ..hmm..not all..in fact i still watch kingdom of the wind because of Song Il Kook. Personally I prefer him in a king costum than in a suit..hehehehehe..so gorgeous..

Once you are over thirty you shouldn't do fur, too much bling bling and big hair. It's very aging and you end up looking like a dowager.

thanks for the recap javabeans...Yuri and Ji Hwan looks great.... still a little disappointed that ji hwan didnt win top excellence award but like you've said he has a long career ahead of him so it's okay esp when he won best couple and netizen awards.

hehehe...the HGD trio are all wearing black this time...last baeksang they all wore white.

Kim Ji Soo and Sung Yuri look fabulous as always. And I love that Park Min Young actually has some meat on her bones.

thank you javabeans. it's nice to read recaps instead of watching hours of the shows (a luxury at the end of year!)
somebody must be denying JGS entry at the doors: not outrageous enough! come back when you're Fruity! (he's turning into equivalent of odagiri jo, who shows up with outre ponytail/boho skirt-pants at awards:P )
lol @ horse tranquilizer comment. is lee hana that big?
kim ji-soo's either born perfect or pimping her latest skincare/lotion line :D

I am really really ….. disappointed…why KJH didn't win??????

A lil dissapointed coz my fav actor kang ji hwan didn't win top excelent actor or popularity.you still have plenty of time ji hwan ssi!but still i love charming-good looking guy-song il gook anyway.congrats him!looking forward to see him in a modern drama even i like him more in saeguk dress;-) but why choi jung won?why her?was it only me saw her ordinary acting on KOTW?

Ji hwan look like a bit skinny than his present on blue dragon awards?is he recover from injury yet?perfect couple ji hwan-yuri;-)

Happy to see Yoona being recognized along with the always notable Lee Pilmo and his tv wife Kim Jung-nan (who, together, were the best characters on the show) holding up the hardware after surviving the extended haul that began with great promise and fizzled due insipid writing; The emotionally exhausting daily You Are My Destiny. Yoona and the cast deserved a better script, but I enjoyed watching each of the veteran and new actors who, no doubt, grew as tired as the loyal viewers of this promising story that somehow became a broken record about 2/3 or the way through.

I'll say it again....Lee Yoon Ji has to be the prettiest, least appreciated, actress on the scene. She is always a delight to watch either in performance or just smiling beautifully on the red-carpet each year on the way to pick up her annual award.

After watching the opening music sequence, I knew the KBS award show was going to the best of the three. After watching Lee Yeon Hee singing in the MBC opening, I knew the MBC show was in trouble. Let's hope KBS can get some winners this coming year. Boys Before Flower looks good. I hope this series does not disappoint. But how can you ruin this story when the plot has been written out and done twice?

I found KBS (and SBS) awards better compared to the controversial MBC.
So happy my choices got the awards:
SIG for Top Male Excellence;
JJY for Excellence (Miniseries, Actor) - Hooray for Yuri Taewang!
and JGS for Popularity Award (Actor).

JAVA: I agree...JGS was so close! His men's suit was perfect (as compared to the other night) but the hair was like...uh oh. Lol.

i hope jgs continues his improvement into 2009. a worthy new year's resolution? :3
i wish he'd let his hair down sometimes. it looked so cute in the beginning of that black engine mv from long ago. :)

Congratulations to all the winners! I think they all deserved their wins! ^^

Altho my fav KJH didn't win, I wasn't exactly that disappointed. He was nominated along with SO MANY veteran actors, and for him to have been in the list with them, it's already an honor... and plus, it's not like he lost or anything. He got the fans' votes! hehehhehe...

Out of all the awards shows, I loved the outfits the celebs wore here the most. They all looked really glamorous and sophisticated... esp the ladies, I almost wished I could have all their dresses. Lee Yoon Ji was the best looking one of the night, and to mention the others, like SYR, Park Min Young and Choi Jung Won... they took away the spotlight for me..

And for the guys, it's always and has always been Kang JI Hwan...<333

Kang Ji Hwan did get anything for his acting? Huhu, kind of disappointed with that. But yeah. He has a long journey and one of the very promising actor out there.

(* *) I happy about awards for Sung Yuri, She overcome Song Hye kyo to give it.
but Kang Ji Hwan haven't awards for his casting in drama HongGilDong.
Mbc awards with a most of awards belong to East of eden, Kbs is not.
I love Sung Yuri & with Awards she become a true actress. Waiting for you in drama '' The land of professionals'' with Ji Sung.
Kang Ji Hwan look old & thin. He is busy a movie with Kim Ha neul'' 7 GRADE CIVIL SERVANT''. hOPING he will success with awards in next year 2009!

jang geun suk has baby mason hair xDDD

@11, horse tranqs are really strong sedatives that some people abuse to get really wasted. i don't think it's a comment on her size.

thank god the other shows (sbs kbs) weren't as bad as mbc's lame excuse of an awards just to kiss east of eden's butt.

"I really don’t get this dress-changing habit that some actresses have gotten into (and this is mid-ceremony, not red carpet to awards show)."

The only ones who do it are the award show MCs.

I am happy that both Kang Jihwan and Sung Yuri had an award. Although I was expecting that Kang Jihwan could get a major award for his good performance in Hong Gil Dong. Both of them truly deserved the best couple award for they really look good together. They really look stunning during the awards night. I just wish them both congratulation and I hope that they could do another good drama in the future. I am looking forward also to watching them in any upcoming dramas, be it in KBS or other production. More power.........
