2010 KBS Drama Awards

290 December 31, 2010January 3, 2011

by javabeans

KBS just may have the longest winners list at the end-of-the-year award ceremony, but they do have the most programming. Not surprisingly, some of the big winners were expected names, like Baker King Kim Tak-gu, Cinderella’s Sister, and Chuno.

The Grand Prize of the night went to Jang Hyuk, who beat out Choi Su-jong’s president (of the nation), Jeon Gwang-ryul’s president (of a baking company), Kim Gab-soo’s president (of a makgulli factory), Lee Mi-sook’s scheming wife, and Moon Geun-young’s damaged daughter characters.

Red-carpet-wise, KBS’s event was much more interesting than MBC’s lackluster event the night before, and perhaps a step up from the slightly better SBS awards, although there was a curious abundance of white. Everyone wearing it looked great, but I had to wonder whether, if you put ’em all together, they’d look like models at a bridal convention.

The hosts of the event were perennial cutie Song Joong-ki (Sungkyunkwan Scandal), veteran Choi Su-jong (President), and a very tall Lee Da-hae (Chuno) in between. (She IS wearing platforms.)

Aw, what a trouper. Lee Da-hae came to the ceremony even though her body is being ravaged by a flesh-eating disease. (Neck up, gorgeous. Neck down, well, still attractive, just also being attacked by monster algae.)

Jang Hyuk was the big winner of the night, and I’d say he deserved it for Chuno, which was the role of his career. And he finally cuts off his mane of glory! Not gonna lie, I’ll miss his hair, although he’s always been good-looking clean-cut as well. But… that bowtie? And the holes punched out of his lapel like something out of an office-supply catalogue meant to hold up your keys? It’s like he went straight from lion on the prowl to mama’s boy at the nerd prom. (Omg, how great would a nerd prom be? I mean that completely sincerely and without sarcasm. I think I’d have a lot more fun at one of those than I did at my own.)

Jang Hyuk came as part of the Slouchy Bad Posture Trio, otherwise known as himself, Oh Ji-eun (Three Brothers), and Sung Dong-il (Chuno). To play on the bride theme, Oh would be the fashionista bride who’d rather have something edgy and new than something traditional and expected. Even if that means slashing her sleeves and shredding her skirt.

Kim Gab-soo wins Top Excellence, yay! When you’re as well-known and prolific as Kim, sometimes people start taking you for granted, but it’s lovely to see him get some props. And of all the bazillion dramas he acted in this year, the one he wins for (Cinderella’s Sister) would also be my pick. So consistently warm, vulnerable, and sincere, even when the plot was caving down around him.

This little guy, Kim Dong-hyun, has also gotten around this year, and played Kim Gab-soo’s son in Cinderella’s Sister before going on to be little Nuri in I Am Legend and one of the young boys of Sungkyunkwan Scandal. He’ll next be seen in the new weekend drama Believe in Love. Seven years old and four major drama series to his name? Oy, I feel unaccomplished.

I love how Moon Geun-young looks here — classic, simple, and pretty. I’m sorry that Mary Stayed Out All Night tanked, but it still netted her a couple award — although really, if you give out five “best couple” awards, it’s kind of a cop-out, no? Plus, she picked up an acting nod for Cinderella’s Sister, where she was amazing, as well as a popularity award. Three out of four ain’t bad. (She was also up for an acting award for Mary.)

If she were at the aforementioned imaginary bridal convention, I’d have to say she’d be the classy no-frills bride — everything would be elegant, but simple.

*Tear* There were times when I didn’t think this day would ever come — Jang Geun-seok, looking impeccable at an awards show? I need a moment to soak this in.

This almost makes me sad to think the days of showing up to events dressed up like a crazy hobo, or a glam-rock groupie, or Severus Snape, or a cheery neighborhood ajumma are over. Well, it was fun (and absurd) while it lasted!

Micky Yoochun, or Park Yoo-chun, can bask in his success transitioning between idol star and actor (a rarity, since idols are most often dogged with criticism), as he pulls in a newcomer acting award for Sungkyunkwan Scandal. I actually think he looks better in the old-timey Joseon garb, though that could just be because I found his socially inept nerd character endearing. But I do think it’s the bangs. (Not a fan.)

It’s pictures like this — fresh! flirty! — that initially had me furrowing my brow when Park Min-young was announced as the cross-dressing lead of Sungkyunkwan Scandal. ‘Cause, ain’t no way a bunch of smartie scholars would look at her and think, “Yeah, that’s a boy.” And they’re the future leaders of the nation? But with some (okay, a ton of) suspension of disbelief, she managed to pull it off, and now returns to looking pretty and womanly. If I’d just spent months dressed as a man, I’d wear gowns like this every day.

I’ll give you a moment to ogle. Okay, done yet? *scrolls back up* No?

I don’t know how Yoo Ah-in (Sungkyunkwan Scandal) can pull off looking fierce and hot wearing a shiny gold bowtie, but he does it. And then also pulls off adorable, winning for best couple with his best bud Song Joong-ki, although I think it’s a shame he didn’t win for New Actor. (I actually liked Yoochun and his character, but he wasn’t better than Yoo Ah-in in that drama, no way. I would say I was willing to fight for this stance, but I have a feeling nobody would fight against it.)

Gah, Lee Shi-young would have me in a perpetual fit of envy, if only I didn’t like her so much. With her talent, I’m surprised she didn’t break into the industry earlier. She had a few dramas this year but it was Birth of the Rich that got her a newcomer award here.

I love everything about her look, even that blunt blob which, face it, not everyone can pull off. (It’s the type of cut you ask for at the salon, and when you’re done, your face falls because now you look like a 12-year-old medieval pageboy whose voice hasn’t dropped yet, while somehow Lee Shi-young gets to be luminous and regal. The world isn’t fair.)

And now it’s Baker King Kim Tak-gu time! The drama was KBS’s biggest hit of the year and netted a number of awards, including one for Yoon Shi-yoon in the title role. He arrived with his co-star Lee Young-ah, who is just the cutest wee little pixie thing. Yes, many of those words are redundant, and yet, I feel they are all needed to convey her adorability. Even though that ring/cutout at the hip reminds me of (the inverse of) those T-shirt rings that were all the rage in elementary school. Don’t judge, ’cause I know you all had ’em. In multiple colors. Decorated in glitter and puffy paint.

I’m ambivalent about Eugene‘s look. On one hand, she is always gorgeous, and her hair is effortlessly loose and she’s confident and cheery. The black gown, though? Eh. The cut of the neckline is something you’d find on your standard business-casual tank top, although it does have an interesting sheer back. Don’t love, but don’t hate.

Is Joo-won still in character as Tak-gu’s bitter rival, with that scowl on his face? The look seems off to me — jacket too long? pants too skinny? — but on the other hand it makes him look like a cute little boy. Out of a Dickens novel. Who’d have to be the hero’s rich enemy, since Dickens didn’t have any wealthy young protagonists, making him… just like Ma-jun to the David Copperfieldian (or Pip-ish?) Tak-gu. Wait, is this all some massive meta statement?

Baker King parents Jeon Gwang-ryul and Jeon In-hwa, the latter of whom schemed and manipulated her way into an acting award.

Twelve-year-old Oh Jae-mu played young Tak-gu, and for that he won a youth acting award. I will overlook the clunky brown shoes with the black suit since he’s a young kid who has never acted before Tak-gu, meaning I doubt he has a wardrobe full of shiny gala wear. Give him time, though.

My first thought upon seeing Jeon Mi-sun (Baker King Kim Tak-gu) was, “Oh, so that’s the name of the lady I see in all those dramas.” My second thought was, “…dressed up like a bar madam in the old, old West whose saloon really doubles for a brothel. A clean, high-class, fancy brothel.” At some point, are we not too old to wear bowties on our biceps? Wait, were we ever young enough for that?

Another show that got its share of props was Gumiho: Tale of the Fox’s Child, whose three leading ladies all got acting nods. Here is Han Eun-jung, looking statuesque and elegant even with a gigantic bow sprouting from her butt.

Both Han’s young co-stars were awarded for their performances: Kim Yoo-jung in (yet more) white, and Seo Shin-ae going traditional in a hanbok. I love that her shoes are peeking out from the dress, and also that they are traditional-style yet high-heeled.

Lee Min-ho! He was dressed more formally last night at the MBC awards, where he was accepting an award for Personal Taste. But here, he’s cuttin’ loose and I love that he came wearing a T-shirt under the jacket… although I do dearly wish he weren’t so enamored of his skinny pants.

Lee Jong-hyuk and Kim Ji-young both took home awards for Enjoy Life. My goodness, her capelet is enormous.

I read somewhere recently that black pantyhose is considered passé. How can black hose be passé? That said, I sadly think Lee In-hye (Comrades) looks a little passé. But beautiful and happy and cute! Just… a little overdone with the cuff and black nails and multiple rings and bracelets and platform leather stripper heels. I think that dress could’ve been awesome without the belt, jewelry, or hose, though.

Oh Ji-ho got an acting award for Chuno? Are pigs flying? And there’s something very… weird… going on with his pants that makes me a bit uncomfortable. (I’M NOT A PERV, THE LINES, THEY POINT THERE.)

Lee Seon-kyun, who won an award for his one-act Drama Special episode Our Slightly Risque Relationship, is looking better (hair-wise) than he did the night before, but my lord is that an ill-fitting suit. I have seen my share of ill-fitting suits, but this one may just take the cake. Did he run out of fresh ensembles after yesterday’s awards and have to borrow Dad’s? And then lose twenty pounds overnight? Sag, sag, sag.

Kim So-eun (Fine Windy Day) would be the casual-Hawaiian-getaway bride, to continue our convention scenario. She’s already got the wavy loose hair and the glowing tan; now all she needs is some hot groom arm candy.

Lee Pil-mo! *Drools over the hair.* Wait, I didn’t mean drooling ON the hair, I meant because of it… Uh, there’s no fixing this one, is there? Here the Kim Su-ro actor poses with his Sol Pharmacy brother Sohn Hyun-joo, the latter of whom won for his Drama Special episode.

Park Eun-bin (Queen Seon-deok). Super-cute look on a cute girl, but I think the torso’s too short. I get the floofy bubble-skirt effect it’s going for, but instead it looks more like bubble-hips-and-butt.

Is it me, or is this dress proportioned all funny? Kim Sung-eun (Enjoy Life) looks lovely, but that dress either needs to be way longer, or way shorter. It’s like the designer couldn’t decide whether to make it into a mermaid gown or a ball gown, and in the end didn’t do any deciding after all. Maybe s/he got frustrated when pageant Barbie was told by her newly bankrupt oil-tycoon Daddy that he couldn’t afford to buy her a new pageant gown AND a bridal dress and forced her to choose, and after a brutal round of Sophie’s Choice, she poutingly made one work double-duty.

Kim Ha-eun (Chuno, Runaway Plan B): Aw, is this what all the young coven ladies are wearing to the witch debutante ball now? How sweet.

And that’s it! Now we bid adieu to the old year. Onward, new year!

YES, someone who agrees with me about Yoo Ah In! He should totally have won that (though he isn't a rookie, in all honesty, but since he was nominated!!!)! He was really so good in SKKS and everyone had Geol-O Ache! Come on! -.- And the best couple award... -.-

First Three:

YOO AH IN! "I don’t know how Yoo Ah-in (Sungkyunkwan Scandal) can pull off looking fierce and hot wearing a shiny gold bowtie, but he does it."
It is because Yoo Ah-in is a demigod!!!♥

JANG GEUN SUK! never thought that this day would come!

SONG JI SOOK gives me a toothache (the good kind) he looks so sweet and dapper.

.. and the rest..

Micky Yoo-chun deserves an award. he was really good in portraying his character in SKKS, though I do agree that YOO AH IN is so much better!

Kim Gab-soo- my favorite step father of all

Eugene is really stunning

BRIDAL CONVENTION- HIL-A-RIOUS!!! and I soo agree

Prettiest Bride Awards goes to..

Moon Geun-young! hands down! though it would've been better, for me, if she won an award for her stellar performance in Cinderella's Sister. Eun-jo will forever be in my heart.

Kim So-eun- the Hawaiian-get-away bride comes second! she really looks pretty but the title fits to a T!

and for a minute there I really, really thought that Lee Da-hae was sick!! OMG. I thought that she was really inflicted by a genuine flesh eating disease... wtf.. hahahaha

Thanks for these Javabeans! Happy New Year!

She did win an award for Cinderella's Sister. Her Top Excellence award was for her work in Cinderella's Sister not Mary Stayed out All Night. I think her best couple award was the only one for Mary.

---> I JUST HAD TO LAUGH ALOUD AT THIS. I asked for a bob at the salon a few weeks ago, though not this short, and I have to agree. I look 12. But man, I hope I don't look like a pageboy. World isn't fair indeedy.

Yoon si Yoon deserves the newcomer award than the rest of the nominees but KBS gave him a higher award which is the Excellence Award... Just like Moon Geun Young who did not win for Excellence Award but for Top Excellence and same with the veteran actress from Kim Tak Gu who tied her in Top Excellence... They gave way to Park Min Young and Yoo Jin for the Excellence Awards...

I share your exact sentiments about Jang Geun Suk. I saw him on the red carpet and f I was wondering whether it was actually JGS and not some look-a-like because...well, where's the raccoon neck warmer and the sparkling silver tuxedo and the top hat? Although, having seen the full body shot I do have to say that you can take immaculately shined pointinini's out of a man, but you can't take Jang Geun Suk out of his immaculately shined pointinini's.

I see you there, Taekyung shoes.

I do wish he'd lose the sideburns though. I wish that one day Jang Geun Suk will show up at an award show looking like he did during the fake wedding photoshoot with Maeri in MSOAN, especially the hair.

Your commentary was priceless from start to finish (no surprise there), but this line just...it still cracks me up just thinking about it because it's SO TRUE.

“… It’s the type of cut you ask for at the salon, and when you’re done, your face falls because now you look like a 12-year-old medieval pageboy whose voice hasn’t dropped yet…”

Reading that it like looking at a scene straight from a movie.

Which very true, he was still nominated in that category and there is no way in hell, no way in hell that Yoochun was better. Just no.
I love me some Park Yoochun and he did a good job for his first role. But yeah, Ah In was the shit. When you think back about SKKS you will remember Yeorim and Geloh first before you even start to think about Sun Joon....

KBS Drama Awards 2010 will always be this prick in my heart which i cannot remove....

Yoo Ah In had suffered an injustice last night because of this award.. he was initially nominated for Best Actor. Fans went ahead and voted for him online for this award as well. There was a switch in the nominations at the very last minute. He was removed from the nominations list and was placed under New Actor's Nominations instead.

That is simply ridiculous. Having acted in 4 dramas from KBS, how is he eligible as a New Actor?

Just needed to vent my frustrations about how unfair things can be when it comes to BIG AWARDS at the end of the year...

thanks for reading...

and thanks for sharing all news JB... always enjoy your posts!

Why does YAI being removed from Best Actor to New Comer category relate to politics? Is it because he made some controversial statements on his twitter acc? I feel happy for YAI-SJK Best Couple award but a little sad because they underapreciate his talent.

Biankoy@ 105

Isn't it MGY won the Top Drama Excellence award for her role as Eunjo in cinderella unni? I don't think that is for MMM?

Anyway, when she was interviewed, she said this is the award she really wanted. There was no way she will win another Daesung because her role in CS is not as complicated as the one she had in Painter in the wind.
Hands down to Jang Hyuk who really deserved the Daesung this year.

But what was touching was MGY was teary eyed when stepdad also won the award for male drama top excellence.

And you guys are correct, JGS looked so dashing to compliment MGY's classy looks. Since they were so sweet and uber close that night - Here comes the bride and groom!!

And YAI and Yoonchun should just have tied in the newcomer award to make everyone happy! Although in reality, YAI no longer a newcomer and should have nominated in the best actor category..

Well, if you're going to cite that as an example... Yoo Seung Ho won the same award for QSD in 2009, even though he was already appearing in child roles since 2000. Park Shin Hye, too, for YAB even though she was acting since 2003. Or how about Won Bin, winning the newcomer award for AIMH despite the fact that he actually debuted 3 years earlier.

I'm not saying Yoochun is undeserving and that Yoo Ah In should've bagged it 100%, of course. I just want to point out how weirdly the term 'newcomer' is defined in these award shows.

There were so many great looking actors and actresses in the KBS awards,and they were all dressed very nice. The prettiest in my mind was Goo Hye Sun,and it was not just due to looks. She was absolutely deliciously radiant. Chemistry between her and Yoo Ah-in was great when they were presenting. They should do a drama together.

Look at the long list of dramas that Ah In has done since...2003 (many of them were KBS dramas, see wiki), how could it even be fitting that he was nominated for the Newcomer award? Totally not got it. Would he be happy to get this rookie drama award at this stage in his career?? I did like him in skks, so i was a little sad too that he only got that one award that Everybody Else got...

Considering the "newness" factor, the difficulty level of the role, *and* my initial doubt about his acting abilities, I have to say I was impressed by Yoochun's potrayal of the scholarly, gentlemanly, yet passionate, unbending, still yet occasionally comical Lee Sun Joon!

I do agree that Yoochun looked much more attractive in SKKS than in real life (at this award show), sigh.. =((

Your review of the KBS awards was absolutely delicious!!! It takes a lot of talent to be critical and funny without ever being mean.

I am wondering why KBS or the actors' managers didn't help them to make better fashion choices. It seems to me that in the States actors have stylists to prepare them for these big events.

Ah, so many wonderful actors/actresses!!

Hmm, I loved, loved, loved Yoo Ah-In in SKK Scandal, but I think Park Yoochun actually deserved the award!

Yoochun seemed to work extremely hard for the role and I think considering that it's his very first attempt at serious acting, he did an amazing job.

Idol stars as actors usually don't work out, but Park Yoochun acually did extremely well (especially with that crying scene)!

As a potentially very valuable actor, he really deserves to be acknowledged this time.

Yoo Ah-In has already shown that he can act beautifully, so it's nice that a new actor was acknowledged :)

At first I worried that Jang Geun-seok had gotten a hair cut and felt devastated, but then I realized from the last picture he just got it done up in a super cute bun, and everything in the world became right and well again.

Question: Why does YAI being removed from Best Actor to New Comer category (in the very last minute) relate to politics? Is it because he made some controversial statements on his twitter acc? I feel happy for YAI-SJK Best Couple award but a little sad because his talent is under-appreciated.

... YOON SHI YOON deserves the acting award he got, his performance in Baker Kim Takgu is impecable indeed!!! he is so convincing and sincere that even we arabic women doesnt understand much about korean culture, we come to love the show.

... SKK's YongHa and JaiShin best couple award is the most wonderful surprise of the evening! we cant help fall in love with their characters at SKK - we love them with all of our hearts!

... Jeongim (the battered wife in "All About Marriage") is also deserving in her acting award (whatever it is) - she had become an inspiration to us women who are facing hardships in their marriage life! - and we hate her husband from that show though - we hate that guy to the bones!.

Wow, a fireworks display of stars glimmering on the red carpet. For a moment there, I was like *in shock* oh no please someone tell me Jang Geun-seok still has his rockin' hair till I scroll down this page to see his bunny tail locks on his side profile. Phew! WT... Mickey reminds me of the Beatles, calling any mop top for an audition to Cirque du Soleil's Love at the Mirage. I love this act; it was beautifully orchestrated. Did Oh Ji-ho get the Static Guard memo, or NOT? I never knew happy trails were so metallic and shimmery. "o , 0' Most of the ladies did a good job showing me a Winter Wonderland theme rocking white dresses for 'tis season. And, I was like Dang, Lee Shi-young looks HOT! She is perfect for this night.

Yoo Ah In should have won an individual award. If they gave three to Yoochun, they should have considered YAI because he acted better in SKK (without being a biased fan).

An off TOPIC question! KBS is rich enough to use teleptompter at these awards show, instead of having the presenters and show hosts with these big ugly cards, their heads are forever down cannot see their faces, Come on TELEPROMPTERS!
