2010 Seoul International Drama Awards

The Seoul International Drama Awards were held on September 10 and hosted by KBS, awarding the winners from a pool of 172 entries from 43 countries.

Sort of an odd list of winners, I thought. (I mean, Chuno alongside The Last Days of Lehman Brothers alongside NCIS?) Not that there’s anything wrong with any of those projects, but who’d’ve thought they’d ever make it to the same awards show. Random.

But no matter: On to the winners!

Celebrating Chuno’s multiple wins

 
Jang Hyuk (Chuno) picked up an acting award, alongside Lee Byung-heon, who didn’t attend. Both dramas were huge and probably merit the “Hallyu” award, but they’re also KBS shows. Coincidence? In other news: cornrows AND a pompadour AND a ponytail, Jang Hyuk?

 
I almost didn’t recognize Jang’s presenting companion as Oh Ji-eun from Three Brothers with that haircut. Can’t say I love the dress — her sleeves have sleeves! (and they make me think of armpit hair, never an association you want when going for glamour) — but the fit is flattering on her.

 
Choi Su-jong (Jeon Woo) and announcer Choi Yoon-young presided as hosts:

 
Lee Seung-gi (My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho) won a netizen popularity award, which is no surprise given that the whole freakin’ country is enamored of this textbook example of an 엄친아, or the boy next door that all mothers love.

 
He won alongside Ruby Lin and Charmaine Sheh:


 
Lee In-hye (Comrades) has picked up the nickname of 엄친딸 over the past few years, which is the female counterpart and means, loosely, the girl next door.

 
I don’t think Lee Chae-young (Comrades) is going to be picking up that nickname anytime soon, however, wearing a shiny tablecloth held up by seatbelts. And are those… detachable hip pockets? Holsters? Wings?

 
Kim Ji-hoon (Joseon X-Files) should always have facial hair and look slightly rumply, as though he already had his fun at the pre-party and is just here to smirk and smolder. Smirk (and smolder) away!

 
He presented with T-ara’s Eun-jung (Coffee House), making a pretty snazzy-looking couple, I must say. I don’t think her shoes are so flattering, nor is the way the voluminous skirts hit at the widest part of the hip, but she looks fresh and lovely and I like the halter. Plus, she’s got some serious arm candy.

 
Han Ji-min (Cain and Abel) presents with the Seoul mayor, Oh Se-hoon. I know she’s working two fashion trends — animal print and an asymmetrical neckline — but in essence it gives her the appearance of a sophisticated cavewoman. Like Pebbles (without her Bam Bam) all grown up and at a fancy party.

 
But nobody, and I mean nobody, commits greater atrocities against fashion than Cha Ye-ryun (Invincible Lee Pyeong-gang). You may have to zoom in and really take a good look to let this monstrosity sink it. Neck-up, she’s wearing a Jackie O collar, inexplicably torn from its home on a comfy winter pea coat to rest on a sleeveless summer shift dress with flower applique and a blocky black hemline. I almost — almost — love the shoes, except they look like they got tangled up in a fight with the aforementioned pea coat. I’m not sure which one emerged the winner.

 
Ji Hyun-woo, Cha’s Invincible Lee Pyong-gang co-star, presented with Nam Gyu-ri (Life Is Beautiful):

 
Gu Eun-ae is a model who is probably best known for dating Ha Jung-woo. In comparison to some of the oddities at the event, her swirly two-tone pink confection is pretty and inoffensive.

The best thing about these award ceremonies is seeing who comes up with the worse catastrophe and decides to call it a dress. Seriously, fire your stylists!!!!

Ohmigosh that was so highly inappropriate of Lee Chae-young wearing such a skimmy dress and showing off her assumingly 'boob jobbed' boobs that are way too big for my likings. Lee Chae Young is prob trying to go for that hollywood look. Or maybe it's craziness.Who knows?

I know this is a KBS awards show but "Chuno"? Really?

While Chuno was pretty to look at (very nice cinematography, set and costume design), but the story line plodded along and was essentially one long chase scene.

Also, pretty much all the characters were 1-dimensional.

The fact that "NCIS" got an award makes this an even bigger joke.

Sorry girls, the assets so marvelously on display care of Lee Chae-young are due to her own genetics and not the work of Dr. Frankenboobs. And to think during all of those episodes of 'Comrades', it was her eyes had my pulse racing...

Lee Seung Gi, Lee Seung Gi!! Amazing actor.
Charmaine Sheh from my HK!! front line of hk fa dans!!

i agree that some of the drama award combinations sound a bit strange...ncis with chuno?? my relative loves ncis, law and order, the mentalist, csi, csi ny us crime dramas (thought not csi miami that much). is chuno that good?? xx i havent watched it, cas im a bit afraid there'll be violence...the posters do show really violent characters with scary glared and wild eyes!! and their costumes...but ive seen some trailers and they look pretty amazing...

charmaine sheh's a great actress, can't buy me love <3 <3
heard that sammul chan is somehwhere, or almost got on?? hes a good siu sang, good actor siu sang.

whats the last days of lehman brothers? what country it from??

i like how international these awards are, broad and goes to show that the ceremony is open to dramas worldwide. dramas from us, uk, korea, hk, taiwan, mainland, japan, eastern & northern europe, etc etc.

I think that Oh Ji Eun looks better with her hair long and dark. The short cut and the color are not flattering and make her look older. She was much prettier in Three Brothers!
