Nominees announced for Baeksang Arts Awards

In the past, I haven’t posted up full nominee rosters for the big awards ceremonies—sometimes I miss the nomination announcements and sometimes I just want to wait to see the winners list. But I figure it may be a point of interest for y’all, so here you go: the nominees for the 50th Baeksang Arts Awards, whose ceremony will be held on May 27.

To give you a general idea of what the Baeksangs are, it’s an award ceremony first established by a newspaper founder and is presented annually in the spring by IS Plus Corp, which is the publisher of a newspaper. It’s the only major award ceremony to honor both film and television, so in that regard it’s a bit like the Golden Globes. The film world has numerous other awards (various film festivals and the Blue Dragons, for instance) but television doesn’t have much outside of its own broadcaster-hosted awards (i.e., the end-of-year ceremonies from KBS, MBC, and SBS)—but as those events are self-congratulatory and designed to spread the love around strategically, I tend not to take them that seriously.

So I do look forward to the Baeksangs with curiosity, because I’m interested in seeing what stood out across the board (and namely, across multiple broadcasters, including cable stations like tvN and JTBC, which have some great programming deserving of recognition). I don’t take any award show that seriously because yes, they do tend to be highly subjective at best and blatantly political at worst, but they’re fun to look at.

That said, this year’s Baeksang list is utter crap. I won’t argue too much with the film side, but lordy who the hell compiled the TV list? Was it a person who watches television? Because Imma say maybe it was compiled by a person who doesn’t watch television. I won’t even take issue with glaring omissions because okay, there were a LOT of shows to consider and Baeksangs fall in a weird part of the year where last year’s shows are competing with current shows, and it’s understandable if people get forgotten in the shuffle. But Good Doctor as best drama or best directing, really? Shark for anything at all, but specifically good writing? And fine, I will take issue with an omission after all because somehow Baro got on the list twice for God’s Gift (but not Answer Me), yet Jo Seung-woo’s name is nowhere to be found. For shame.

So basically, now this list holds no water with me. I will look forward to the awards show for the red carpet, but that’s all. That carpet had better be rockin’.

The best rookie in film category fascinates me:

Im Shi-wan
Yeo Jin-gu
Kim Soo-hyun
Lee Joon
Kim Woo-bin

Two idols (ShiWan and LeeJoon), a model (WooBin), an actor (Kim Soo-hyun) and his younger version (Jin-gu). Personally, the 16 year old is the better actor for me. Can't wait to see him grow up and improve even more as an actor.

I'm sure I can already guess who is going to win, probably dye to popularity alone, which isn't a surprise. Korean drama awards has been screwing over actors since the beginning.

but the biggest question I have is, why isn't " Touch Love" by Yoon mirae from Master Sun not on the Drama ost nomination? It was widely popular even topping charts for a hecka long time.

Go Ara (Answer Me 1994) was likable not lovable. Jeon ji-hyun was lovable and she deserves it for that crazy smooth acting She stole the show. I liked her more than kSH :) Will shoot anyone if Lee Min Ho wins any award.KIm Woo bin was amazing as the rookie actor. He totally deserves that. This list seems biased. Why is Gong Hyo-jin (Master’s Sun) not nominated in actress category. Really
blank ... she put such a great performance why she was not recognized.... this award list is dull. A honest list recognizing ppl only for their talent and not their celebrity status or popularity would have been good.

Totally agree with everything you said...it's sad that both GHJ and SJS didn't get the nod, because they were both great in MS. As for GA...just because she actually got better at acting don't mean she deserve the nod -- JEJ was hella better in AM1997 than GA was in AM1994.

I loled with your remark about LMH...at least he didn't get the nod for best actor, or there really would have been hell to pay ;)

I'm sad at the omission of Gong Hyo-jin and So Ji-sub from the acting honours too, they made a perfect unit that saved Master's Sun and turned it into a show I actually wanted to watch....just for them.

Individually and together, they're fantastic - and it's the calibre of the individual performances that makes me rate them the best couple of the year - KSH didn't quite match up to JJH in YFAS, but SJS/GHJ? They were perfectly matched, both in terms of acting ability and chemistry.

And I totally agree about Go Ara (now, Eun-ji in 1997, she was lovable) and Jeon Ji-hyun.

that's a matter of opinions....and everyone seems to have one of those. No matter what they picked someone's gonna have a pickle about it. I agree that the two from master sun should be nominated but as for them being the "better" couple then YWCFTS? I disagree! For me, KSH & JJH chemistry is OFF THE CHART! after seeing many, many dramas and loving many couple's chemistry...after seeing theirs, no other couple seems to be able to match up...for me I like the Master Sun, not loved it because I personally think the chemistry between the two was a little lacking (the kissing was pretty tame and disappointing for me, I liked her chemistry better in The Greatest Love)...MS is better than a lot of shows but it's shy from reaching my top 6 for me.
...there is no right, and there is no wrong....just a bunch of people with a bunch of different tastes and opinions ;)

You're exactly right about the MS couple...while they had sizzling chemistry, their "romance" was so unabashedly tame! (even by kdrama standards too). There were infinite possibilities and ways the Hong Sisters could have played out the whole touch attraction concept, but they played it extremely chaste. Hahaha...I'm laughing as I type this because I sound so dirty, lol ;)

And again, you're exactly right with your last sentence :)

Seems to me that the awards are also riding the hallyu wave, what happened to the recognition of the talent, arts and skills? When these awards bow down to big conglomerates and sponsors, everything just razes to the ground, big time.

Not having good ratings doesn't mean not good dramas, somehow the fad dramas become watchable because everyone's watching them.

Oh well....

I wonder why there're many comments in here dissapointed about Jo seungwoo not being chosen as best actor. I agree he' done good job in God's gift but his role in here as supporting role at first eventough he got more screen time later so I understand why he doesn't get nominated. Also I have same feeling with @SS so I'm sad when read comment about Good Doctor. I have feeling that joowon will bring best actor award this time because he's done fantastic job in good doctor

I'm thinking Yay here hasn't seen any of Jeon Ji-hyun's previous works...or Go Ara's, for that matter. If they did, then they'd know GA pales in comparison to JJH, hands down.

If you compare AM1994 and AM1997, Jung Eun-ji > GA by far...and it was JEJ's first acting role. I'll commend GA for improving, but she in no way warranted a Best nod.

You are absolutely wrong . I have already seen "My sassy girl " , "windstruck " and YWCFTS .

If you have seen R1994 and will see "you're all surrounded" then you'll come up with the same conclusion .

I think in dramas, YFAS is going to get most of the awards, but in drama actors, Yoo Ah-In also deserve to win. I recently started watching Secret Love Affair, and man, he is good. His face is much more expressive that Kim Soo Hyuns´. but Jeon Ji-Hyun really does deserve to win, for being so fully immersed, completely sucked into the role.
is there no best villain category though? drat.

Aigoo...sometimes I feel like DMJ's character itself will KILL Kim Soo Hyun at award shows. He is such a great actor, but the DMJ isn't a multi dimensional character... Hard to act out lots of emotions when there only 2 emotions your characters get are being Cold and being in love.

Jun Ji Hyun deserves to be on that list, as well as Kim Soo Hyun. They did a wonderful job in MLFTS. Kim Soo Hyun's acting was solid and he portrayed the character so well. Do Min Joon is an old man, cold and detached from all human feelings. Therefore, KSH's acting matched perfectly with the character. Jun Ji Hyun's acting was superb in my opinion. She brings life to the character!

Although I'm sad that Ha Ji Won wasn't nominated, as well as Jo Seung Woo... They could have made a better list... Like Lee Jong Suk shouldn't be on that list, IHYV was great with LBY, but LJS to be nominated? what????

Why is running man not in the list? It is the best variety show.

I watched Terror, Live and well it turned out to be a fantastic action movie. I am not really into action but man, Ha Jungwoo was pretty intense. I watched it when I was in a 6-hour flight and I actually tend to skip and change the movie I watch in that circumstance but man. The setting are just an office and other minor places but still shot awesomely. I hope this movie at least will get the best picture award.

I seriously don't understand the hype about YWCFTS , it's just a story about an alien meeting a stuck up actress who happens to be older than him . Even though ,she acts like a 20 y.o . Like seriously though ? It was not even realistic , Aliens teleportation and staff ? There was no back story , no emotions NADA . I seriously did not feel this drama , I will never rewatch it again .
In the other hand , people who insult Go Ara ...seriously ? The girl was amazing , I felt every moment of her acting , she was natural , sassy , adorable , loveable ....etc . I watched so many actresses perform , at first my fav was Yoon eun hye ,but after watching R1994 , it just switched to Go Ara !
Plus for Reply 1994 is the best kdrama so far , it contained strong back story , it made us live through the 90's , know what was going on at those time , made us cry and laugh with the entire cast . It was a splendid Masterpiece . That's why everyone who took part in its creation should be rewarded .
Plus Reply 1994 needs to be downloaded and rewatched again and again and again .
I hope it wins all the awards out there !

Yes, because Korean romantic comedy dramas are known for being realistic and true to life.

Answer Me 1994 was charming, but had 5 episodes too many and the episodes it did have, were all 20 minutes longer than they should have been. - way too bloated. I know it got higher ratings but the writers/PD actually did it better the first time around, with Answer Me 1997.

EXACTLY.

AM1997 was definitely better than AM1994...I connected more with their characters (loved everyone!) and their story was more slice-of-life than 1994 was. 1994 tried to capitalize on the popularity of its predecessor by baiting viewers with the "who's the husband" gimmick, which was old and predictable.

...But who knows. I was 12/13 in 1997, loved H.O.T. and found similarities in JEJ's SW in me. So maybe that's why I highly prefer 1997 than to 1994. GA's NJ was spunky and interesting at first, but I didn't connect with her as I did with SW.

It only expended for one episode . And I wishe it was longer , i seriously couldn't get over this drama . I even cried at the end and I still miss the bording house with its amazing people . Unlike R1997 , which focuses only on the leads , r1994 from NJ's parents to seureki , everyone left his /her own trace , it depicted the life of each one of them . I don't know how people leaved in 94 since I was born in the same year , it made me think if only I was 20 back then instead of now . I lived with each character specially NJ's cause I have lots in common with that girl . I teared and laughed every episode with them . No drama so far made me this way and that's why until now people are still talking about it and giving theories . (Just have a look at soompi forum -cider couple or nareki couple)
Plus, it talks about mature people not high schoolers .... Bottom line is , it's a special drama to recommend vividly (I already did that , all my friends and family loved it) . It's worthy of million awards .

Is not hard to understand why Yoo Ah-In is nominated for best actor. He is phenomenal in Secret Love Affair and it's no joke at all.

For anyone who said that Yoo Ah In and Secret Love Affair didn't deserve the nominations, you just don't know how popular they are in Korea right now. The fact that they, a tv cable show, got 5 nominations alone along with YWCFAS and IHYV tells it. And most importantly, they are receiving a huge amount of good reviews in Korea due to the high quality in acting, cinematography, directing, and storyline. See it from the local's perspective for once. Congrats and dood luck, Secret Love Affair team! Make these people shock!

I'm amazed by his acting skill and piano-playing scenes in SLA. He's totally immersed in his role. The PD said he didn't use substitute/stand-in for the piano-playing scenes. His piano concerto performance is totally mind blowing and he looks utterly sexy! Yoo Ah In deserves to get the best actor nomination.

Check his piano concerto scene video

I liked the song Sung Shi Kyung did for YWCFTS more than Destiny and his song for Reply. And as much as I love Choi Jin Hyuk getting recognition and Wol Ryung is one of my fave characters ever, seeing him being nominated for a new actor's award is strange. Kim Soo Hyun as well. By now, they should be getting real awards.

Oh My God! I had so much fun reading all the comments. Phew! Happiness, sadness, angst, disbelief, it's all there, ladies and gents. Anyway, it has just truly hit home to me that the reason why JB and GF call DMJ 'Grandpa Do' is not simply because he is a cranky 400-year old alien. It is because he is a 400-year old alien who acts like a grandpa, thinks like a grandpa and, most importantly, talks like a grandpa in very outmoded language.

Ah, I missed DB.

I have only one question... why is LJS nominated for Top Excellence actor?!?! They really need to have more than one category... like Top Excellence and then Excellence or something as they usually do for other award ceremonies... and well have to agree with others that the lack of nominations for Nine is really a huge pity... though it did get other nominations and awards for other ceremonies

Secret Love Affair has completely up my standard and expectation of K-Drama through the roof ( even a notch better than my all time favourite Coffee Prince ) -so I'm hoping that it will be a clean sweep for SLA. Alas how is Kim Hee Ae not nominated?!

Can't comment on the movies but hope Baro and Do hee wins. Baro was good in both Answer 1994 and God's Gift so it doesn't matter to me which drama he wins for....

The OST award is pretty tight too. All were good songs!

Am I the only one who thinks that Reply 1994 deserves to win more than 1 award? For Sung Si-kyung's To You as best OST and Shin Won-ho as best director. Though the whole drama is a bit draggy, the directing and ost are AWESOME. *Jang Tae-yoo of YWCFTS is also GREAT though

Best drama...i bet I hear your voice will win. Best drama actor will be Joo Won,best actress Jun Ji-hyun,new actor Jung Woo,new actress...i dunno. And popularity award,as usual, will go to PYC. for scripwriter, my vote is on IHYV.

But then again, YWCFTS is the newest phenomenon. Probably will sweep the awards.
*i think Kim Soo-hyun will get popularity award in film category though

I see I'm not the only one who thinks Empress Ki got snubbed bad. The plot was sometimes questionable, yes, but the actors and actresses were spectacular in that drama. I feel like the women of EK get more recognition than the men who I thought did a fantastic job (Joo Jin Mo, Ji Chang Wook, Jin Yi Han etc)
Oh well. Hopefully, the drama will get its time to shine in other award shows.

what happend to empress ki and three days , why it's not nominated, chang ji wook and yoochun should be in best actors list as well, this is so unfair. what my love from another star, drama is good but for best actor it shouldn't be entered. from the start to end it has nothing.this is a mess.

Hi everyone!

Sorry for OOT here, but I'd like to ask if any of you guys here know what is the highest award for acting for movies and television in South Korea?

You know, like the Oscar and Emmy versions that South Korea has in their country. I'm quiet confused (and curious at the same time) about this.
Thanks in advance! :)
