Namgoong Min
Last, but not least, SBS held the final awards ceremony of 2020. Shin Dong-yup returned to host, this time with Kim Yoo-jung joining him. The broadcaster had a very good year, with several ratings and critical hits. The star of one of its biggest successes, Namgoong Min, took home the Daesang for his work in the sports drama Stove League .
Namgoong Min played Baek Seung-soo, the general manager of an underdog baseball team who manages to lead a ragtag crew to victory. Stove League started off with ratings of 5.5% before hitting a peak of 19.1% over its run.
As he accepted his award, Namgoong Min shared that his first fixed role on a drama was with SBS (My Big Family, 2002) and stated, “I’m happy to receive such a major award [from SBS]. Every single person who worked on Stove League was precious and I’m grateful to the beautiful cast and crew who worked with me. Of all the dramas I’ve filmed so far in my career, I think Stove League was the most perfect.”

Before, it felt strange to see masked up, dolled up actors. But it’s definitely much stranger to see no masks knowing the pandemic isn’t under control yet. To be fair, there were masks on the red carpet but having a partial mask requirement seems to defeat the purpose. At any rate, I hope 2020 will be the only year masks are a necessity.
Congratulations to all the winners and check out the full list below.
