Every December, each of the Big 3 networks cap off the year with awards ceremonies to honor their biggest hits. For the 2019 MBC Drama Awards, model and TV personality Han Hye-jin co-hosted with fellow TV personality Kim Seong-joo. Social satire Special Labor Inspector Jo was the big winner of the night, scooping uo five awards, including the coveted Daesang which went to the drama’s headliner Kim Dong-wook.
Kim Dong-wook
Kim Dong-wook won both the Daesang and a Top Excellence prize for his role as Jo Jin-gap. Kim actually made his drama debut 12 years ago in MBC’s Coffee Prince so it’s nice to see his career come full circle in such a happy way. During his acceptance speech for the Daesang, he stated, “I’m so thrilled I’m not sure what to do with myself–it’s such an honor to receive this award. I’ll work hard to be someone who always strives to do his best, to humbly thank the many people I’m grateful toward, and to be an actor who does his job well.”
