Lee Dong Wook, Kim Go Eun, Gong Yoo, and others take home top honors at the 2024 Pinggyego Awards; full list of winners revealed.
Famed South Korean comedian and TV host Yoo Jae Suk, known as the “national MC,” returned to host the second Pinggyego Awards on Sunday, December 22. Starting at 9 a.m. KST, the ceremony maintained its trademark unconventional approach to welcoming A-list celebrities.
The event, featuring fan-favorite stars like Lee Dong Wook, Lee Dong Hwi, Lim Soo Jung, Park Shin Hye, Lee Kwang Soo, Girls’ Generation’s Yuri, and more, drew an immediate surge of new subscribers. According to Sports Chosun, the live viewer count on the ‘DdeunDdeun’ YouTube channel exceeded 110,000 as soon as the show began.
The laid-back event was filled with back-and-forth banter and surprising moments, including veteran actor Lee Sung Min (The Shadow Detective, Misaeng) being humorously awarded the Rookie title for his appearance on Yoo Jae Suk’s web variety show. The official YouTube description for the show openly stated: “Honestly, the awards ceremony is just an excuse… We’ll simply chat about recent events, year-end and New Year plans, and other topics as a year-end gathering.”
