2008 SBS Drama Awards

Following MBC’s Acting Awards on the 30th, the 31st saw awards ceremonies for the other two stations. First up: 2008 SBS Drama Awards. (KBS coming up next!)

The big news is that the SBS Daesang was awarded to the very young but very talented Moon Geun-young for her gender-bending role in the gorgeously shot historical drama Painter in the Wind. It had been widely speculated that her co-star, shunned star Park Shin-yang, might not appear after being shut out of the nominations and criticized for his exorbitant asking fees, and he in fact did not show. (I think Park’s management did not handle the War of Money pay situation well, but making a point to blackball him from SBS seems like scapegoating to me.)

Moon Geun-young (Painter of the Wind) wins the Daesang! Congrats to her, but she is looking alarmingly skinny. Not overworking-skinny, but has-ceased-all-sustenance-intake skinny. This is worrisome.

 
Moon Geun-yong also won Best Couple with her co-star, Moon Chae-won (Painter of the Wind) — I wonder if this is the first time the best couple has been same-sex?

 
Lee Junki (Iljimae) — so, SO much better than the day before at MBC’s awards show!

 
Han Hyo-joo (Iljimae) is pretty, but she’s done this look before, and recently (at the Mucha jewelry event).

 
Han Ye-seul as been rocking the red carpet all year long, and she shines in this gorgeous dress. Love everything about her look, even if I didn’t love everything about her Tazza role.

 
Tazza wasn’t a huge winner, but it did take home several awards, among them one for Han Ye-seul and one for Jang Hyuk:

 
I think Choi Kang-hee (My Sweet Seoul) is going for casual cool, but it was hard finding pictures of her not looking stoned. Aside from her facial expressions, I think she looks good in the dress, minus the boob-curtain thing it’s got going on.

 
Choi’s co-star Ji Hyun-woo (My Sweet Seoul), um, came looking like Mr. Rogers.

 
Yay to newly engaged Moon Jung-hee (My Sweet Seoul) for her award. She was the best thing about that drama for me, so I’m pleased to see her here.

 
Did Kim Haneul (On Air) parachute in, and not have time to remove her harness? Her bondagewear aside, she’s gorgeous and is another actress who’s been looking great all year.

 
Her co-star Park Yong-ha (On Air) was also awarded for his role, as was Song Yoon-ah, who cannot pick a nice dress to save her life. I’m also irrationally bothered that one of her boobs is apparently supported (by the bodice trim) and the other one is cut in half.

 
Kim So-yeon (Gourmet) is a gorgeous woman with a fantastic figure. She can even rock this asymmetrical furry-looking concoction whose short side looks like a figure-skating costume, while the long side is cut almost like a wedding dress train.

 
Ha Suk-jin (Happiness) is putting up his dukes on the red carpet. I don’t know why. One wouldn’t think a drama called Happiness incorporates much in the way of fisticuffs.

 
First Wives Club was a huge winner of the night. The much-watched series brought acting awards for Ahn Nae-sang and Kim Hee-jung, among others:

 
Lee Joon-hyuk (First Wives Club)

 
Lee Sang-woo (First Wives Club)

 
More from First Wives Club! Here’s Oh Hyun-kyung and Oh Dae-gyu:

 
Kim Ja-ok (Working Mom) opts to go traditional in her hanbok:

 
I like the swirly patterning on Kim Sung-ryung‘s (Iljimae) halter dress:

 
Kim Yeon-joo (Daughter-in-law and Daughter-in-law)

 
Lee Hyung-chul (On Air)

 
Cha Ye-ryun (Working Mom) looks fabulous in this chic sheath dress:

 
Lee Yo-won (Surgeon Bong Dal-hee)

 
Lee Moon-shik (Iljimae) is here with Lee Won-jong (Gourmet), who didn’t win for SBS but did pull in an award at the KBS awards (for Great King Sejong), which happened concurrently:

 
Oh Man-seok and his costar Park Bo-young from King and I:

 
Kpop singer and actor Ryu Shi-won is stayin’ alive.

 
Winners Sohn Hyun-joo (Tazza) and Do Ki-seok (Iljimae):

 
What adorable tykes! Yeo Jin-gu and Kim Yoo-jung both won for the child actor category for Iljimae.

 
Yoon So-yi (City of Glass). I like the dress in theory, but somehow that shiny black sash doesn’t really complement the minidress all that well. I think reversing the colors (white sash, black dress) may have produced a chic-er effect.

 
Just see how nicely Yoo Seung-ho, left, (Legend) is growing up; Bae Soo-bin (Painter of the Wind) is lookin’ mighty handsome:

 
Yes, comedian Lee Han-wi (City of Glass, My Sweet Seoul) is wearing sneakers, and what appears to be be a velvet formal suit, but rock on with yo’ bad self. Also, Bong Tae-kyu (Working Mom).

 
Chae Young-in (Happiness)

 
Ha Yu-mi (My Man’s Woman); Hong Ji-min (On Air)

 
Im Jung-eun (Aquarius)

 
Ha Joo-hee, also from morning drama Aquarius, which I haven’t seen (nor heard much about). I did enjoy Ha as the bimbo model in Soulmate, though.

LOL, I'm guessing Ha Seok-jin is doing that since he played a boxer in "Happiness."

And yay Moon Geun Young! Well-deserved. But I agree with you on how skinny she looks...and I am not a fan of her hair.

SBS awards ceremony was way better than the MBC one...which was just...@#$#@#!

KBS awards ceremony was great too.

About *Teen Star Award, isn't the award Top 10 STARS?
Teen Star Award just sounds weird. I think it's suppose to be Top 10 STARS (10대 스타상).

Aw I'm so happy for Moon Geun Young! And I love the same-sex couple idea. This makes me want to watch Painter even more. (Btw, I think Lee Junki and Gam Woo Sung also won Best Couple for The King and the Clown a few years ago.)

Are awards always shared like that? I though MBC's was bad, but SBS gave ELEVEN people the "New Star Award".

Woot Woot!!! I'm so happy that Moon Geun Young won the daesang! She's an awesome actress especially for her age! Although I was also rooting for Lee Jun Ki, I'm glad with the results overall (much better than the sucky MBC Drama Awards yesterday where they co-awarded the daesang to Song Seung Hun -_-)

Congrats to Miss Moon! Though I've yet to see her work in "Painter", she's always worth watching in all of her roles. Even I agree, though, that she needs to beef up in order to protect her health. The demands on theses ladies must just be gruesome. One would hope that each set would include a physician or a nutritionist at least to insure that the players remain healthy enough to keep supplying those milking the "gravy train."

It was also nice to see the kids from Iljimae being acknowledged.They were definitely among the highlights of the series.

Congrats to MGY on a much deserved award! I agree, she needs to adopt a more healthy diet! When you don't eat you lose muscle, hence the skinny arms and legs!
Next comes the so called collapse due to exhaustion from overwork! No, it's due to malnutrition! No food no energy/no muscle no strength!
Sorry about the rant!

to Moon Geun Young, she deserves the award. at least the basis of this Dae Sang was not on rating but more on the acting of the recipient.

somehow i am satisfied with the results of SBS Dae Sang...
they do not have those Excellent Actor Award, Best Actor Award, Oustanding Actor Award....and somehow they only give one for each category...except for some categories...unlike in MBC where every category has two recipients.

Nice. I'm glad to see Moon Geun-Young winning Daesang ... and I agree with those who said that she deserves it.

I'm also glad to see a couple of my old favorites being awarded for their performances, too. Kim So-Yeon and Sohn Hyun-Joo. And, of course, the ever-pretty Lee Jun-Ki!

I really don't understand all the random awards that they made up this year. It seems as though last year's award categories were alot more straight forward. I guess its just an excuse to give everyone an award. Congrats to MGY for being the youngest daesang winner. I'm quite surprised but very happy for her. Seriously, Choi Kang Hee?? Her dress looks like she created it 5 minutes before the award show. What in the world?! Kim Haneul's dress looks very elegant, minus the black strap things that resemble toilet paper.

hey this is nicer lineup of fashion after MBC awards doldrums.
what a crazy biz...2 years ago MGY was trashed after her movie with kim ju-hyuk bombed. ppl were crying doom as they rejected her attempt to move from innocent sweet gal to a fierce, bitter woman. now she has the last laugh! but why so skinny now work's over?

kim ja-ok even got a traditional hairdo to go with hanbok. those tarty waves :D - cool.

happy new year to song yoon-ah's right breast too; poor girl.

Ugh, I remember noting how thin MGY looked on one of your previous posts. It really became obvious here. I hope she doesn't think that (frail almost keeled over) figure is pretty.

OMG, what the heck happened to MGY? She looks very freakingly thin, which is very worrisome. She needs to eat more and really look after her health because she doesn't look healthy. Aside from that, CONGRATS to one of my favorite young actress, You rock girl!

Cha Ye-ryun 's sheath dress is amazing. Love it when beautiful women dress like that. Shows a certain confidence and flair.
Kim Hanuel's hair looks great. The hair tied low at the nape is a much better look for her than the top knot. Love her makeup too. No one can rock the statement earrings like she does. The duct tape on her dress makes her look like she trying too hard.
Song Yun-ah's dress is depressing. She's not young enough to do skimpy, strapless, shiny, pink all at once. And those awful shoes and accessories.
MGY's dress is perfect for her. Love it when young girls are adventurous and do something fun and fabulous.
Lee Jun Ki just exudes sheer masculinity in a suit. Delicate features but his energy is so manly. Mmmmm

Major claps and congrats to all the winners, especially MGY. I was already rooting for her to get the Daesang ever since the list was announced, and indeed, she did not disappoint. She deserved it, with full force. Congrats girl!!

I think the girls looked fit and pretty in their dresses... at least they were so much more better than those in the MBC Awards, which was a total slum for me.

The guys look pretty suave and good looking as well..

All for a good and glorious night, for SBS! Good job this year!

ah.. the many faces and expression she did.. so so good *recalls*. hehe.

i actually blushed when i read who won the best couple award. hihihi.
even though MCW's acting at first seemed stiff,
she improved a bit through the episodes. plus, she's pretty and hot. +10 points. :p
and for some reason, there IS a chemistry between the two. hahaha.
(yeah, i was wondering the same thing, whether that was the 1st same sex couple award :p)

and oh yeah, you know the part in the ending where SYB sails off?
maybe SYB decided to be with JY rather than KHD. hihihi.
hey, i can wish, can't i? *LOL*

happy '09 everyone! XD

Oooooohhh, so many goodies to comment on! And apologies in advance if some sound cranky - still nursing remnants of hangover due to missed nap today.

Moon Geun-young: YEAH!! I started late so only on Ep7 but already felt she deserved award! But...what's with the hair and does Korea not have sheer evening stockings or sunless tanning products (and this is not limited to her)? Tomboy knees don't go so well with a fancy dress, especially one whose length (height?) made going on stage a bit risky!

Best Couple - MGY and MCW: Hilarious! Fantastic! Some of their scenes seemed to have more sexual tension than male/female ones in other dramas.

Kim Haneul & her dress: Must demand refund for trying to pass it off as Jean-Paul Gaultier original.

Javabeans being on "irrationally bothered" by Song Yoon-ah's dress: Made me spit up my ice cream as I imagined the deadpan delivery of this sentence.

First Wives Club: Can't believe it won so many awards & still can't comprehend why it was so popular. Few times I tried to watch, visceral reaction turned me into nasty, man- & woman hating b*tch while my BF watched from safe distance. Seriously, not a drama to air while Korea's childbirth rate continues to drop.

Lastly, Javabeans, how in heaven did you ever restrain yourself with just "stayin’ alive" for Ryu Shi-won?? ;-)

I never watch the shows so thank you for the lovely recap & pics!

Kim Ha Neul 's dress like rope around the box that look good for you I am doubt about you test and your opinion. Song 's age is only 35 years she look always beatiful.So if you have bias opions please choose another works to do new.Dont use your space to kill the pure girl for your cheerful,

Tone,
Javabeans is probably too nice to respond to your comment so I'll do it. Not because she needs defending but because your comment just pissed me off.

1) Understand that this blog is the result of Javabeans's time and efforts (with great contribution from others), so she is at full liberty to like or dislike a dress and to opine as to an actress's choice for wearing it. (Frankly, the dress looks like a Gap cotton sundress with costume gold braiding. Also, the color reminds me of Pepto-Bismol.) You like it? Fine. Next.

2) Javabeans did NOT like Kim Ha Neul’s dress - she made fun of it by using the term "harness" and "bondagegear". It's clear that English is not your native language but still, if you know enough to read this blog, you should be able to note the difference.

3) WTF does Song's age have to do with the price of beans in Mexico? Javabeans commented on the dress, not the actress's physical appearance.

i know you SYA's overprotecting fan.

but there's Javabeans' blog, she can comment anything that she thinks
everyone 's test and opinion are different.

What's wrong with Javabeans that she think SYA 's dress is not good.

if you did see KOREA REPORT , 2008 SBS ,MBC and KBS best dresser.

you wiil see SONG YOON AH got The WORST DRESSER.

it's not only Javabeans but The Media also think the same.

i also think SYA is not young enough to wear pink one.
she tried to look young BUT The result is pretty Bad.
