The annual Baeksang Arts Awards was held this Friday night in Seoul and the 2022 edition totally dropped some surprises and some expected wins. In a first, the winner of the Popularity Awards Junho and Kim Tae Ri also won the Best Acting prizes in their respective categories. Junho took home Best Actor Drama for The Red Sleeve Cuff and Twenty Five, Twenty One netted Kim Tae Ri Best Actress Drama. K-netizens seem most surprised Junho won over Lee Jung Jae for Squid Game, and that if he didn’t win for SQ then he would get the Daesang which one year went to Kim Hye Ja but here it was Squid Game the drama that won the television side Daesang. The Best Actress side I think was a toss-up between Kim Tae Ri and veteran Kim Hye Soo for Juvenile Justice. The Best Drama award went to D.P., SQ’s PD Hwang Dong Hyuk took the Best Director prize, and Best Script went to the writer for Juvenile Justice Kim Min Seok so the Netflix dramas definitely scored here. Cho Hyun Chul won Best Supporting Actor for D.P., Best Supporting Actress winner was Kim Shin Rok in Hellbound, it was Koo Kyo Hwan getting the win for D.P. as Best New Actor and his counterpart was Kim Hye Jun winning Best Supporting Actress for Inspector Koo.

I could rant about how KHS and KNG were robbed. But it won't change a damn thing. So congratulations to all the winners. 👍
Wow, biggest congrats to Netflix for nearly walking off with all the awards.
At this rate, Money Heist and Sound of Magic plus whatever else is in this year's Netflix lineup lineup might very well be next year's Baeksang nominees and winners.
Except move to heaven :(
Not getting any nom for Move to Heaven is such a mindblowing thing...
But for 2022 Netflix drama, Suriname is the one I am most excited for. Ha Jungwoo, Hwang Jungmin and Park Haesoo... yay!!!
Just curious, no malice meant. Do you work at Netflix, by any chance?
Yes I do.
In their janitorial department.
WELL DESERVED JUNHO
Awww love Junho in TRS and Kim Tae Ri in 2521. Hope they get to do a drama together. I think Kim Tae Ri exudes Hollywood vibes with her confidence. I hope she gets to work in foreign films.
Yay, so happy for Kim Tae Ri, Kim Hye Jun, and DP!!!
In my entire kdrama life, there only performance that I am absolutely sure that deserves all the recognition compared all other contenders, Lee Junho, Yisan, King Jeonjo. He is so amazing in it. There is no way anyone could beat that performance.
W pełni się zgadzam!
It was obvious KNG and ISW were out of the competition after Junho bagged the PD award for best actor. It rly was a toss up between JH and LJJ, but only bc of seniority let's be honest. Happy for JH, his performance was revelatory and pretentious drama fans are always gonna be prejudiced bc of his idol background but it's well deserved imo.
hah yeah seen so many pretentious drama fans trying to discredit his achievement just cuz they're salty their fave lost to an idol actor lmao
Congrats to Junho! Make em weep :p
Congratulations to Junho! Really one of the best performances I've seen out of korean entertainment in years. Absolutely well deserved. I thought they might give it to LJJ bcs of the SG craze but I'm happy to be proven wrong. On to even bigger and better things for Junho now. He's brimming with talent. Wish him all the best for future roles.
He really was awesome with Yi San.
And it is amazing, that in the movie category Sol Kyunggu bagged the award. He was one of the veterans and mentors Junho had in his debut acting career. Seen a few snippets of SKG interview this year and he has praises for Junho's Yi San.
Junho and kim tae ri looked cute together. Congratulation on winning the popularity and acting awards!!
