Recently, APAN announced the final list of selected products. In 2020, the new works, including Hyun Bin , Kim Soo Hyun , Park Seo-jun , etc., Korean drama , male gods failed to enter the shortlist for the best male lead, but the series they starred in were all shortlisted for the best TV series.
, and the annual ratings champion drama " The World of Couples " failed to enter the shortlist for the best TV series, which also made netizens question the selection criteria of APAN.
Among the shortlists released by APAN, the most popular candidate is naturally the best actor and actress.
actresses, Kim Yu-jung and Seo Ye-chi were successfully shortlisted for their performances in " convenience store new star " and "Although I'm mentally ill, it's OK".
and Seo Ji-hye , Lee Sung-kyung, and Par Eun-bin were also successfully shortlisted, but the calls from these three actresses are obviously not as good as Kim Yu-jung and Seo Ye-chi. After all, the partner of Kim Yu-jung and Seo Ye-chi are top male gods like Ji Chang-wook and Kim Soo-hyun.
However, among Ji Chang Wook and Kim Soo Hyun, only Ji Chang Wook was included in the shortlist for the best actor, and Kim Soo Hyun was unfortunately defeated.
In addition, Park Bo Gum , Zhou Won , Park Hae-joon were shortlisted for his performance in " Youth Record ", "Alice" and "The World of Couples". Kim Min-jae, who tried to be the male lead of a big production series for the first time, was also unexpectedly shortlisted, which also made the competition for the best actor particularly fierce. These male actors have their own characteristics, and who can be elected in the end may only depend on the preferences of the judges.
Although popular male stars such as Hyun Bin, Kim Soo Hyun, Park Seo-jun have not been nominated for Best Actor, they still have the opportunity to be shortlisted for more heavyweight awards such as the "Grand Honor Award" and "Grand Excellence Award". However, the list of shortlists for these awards has not been announced yet.
And the heroine of "The World of Couples" Kim Hee-ai seems to be expected to be shortlisted for this award, we can wait and see.
In addition to personal awards, the competition for the Best TV Series Award is also very fierce.
Many popular dramas including "Crash Landing of Love", "Although I'm Mental Ill, Itaewon Class" have been successfully shortlisted. However, because the styles and audiences of these dramas are very different, it is hard to say which drama can stand out in the end, and it seems that the results cannot be predicted in advance until the last moment.
In fact, most netizens expressed their understanding of such a list of selected items, but many people still feel resentful of the failure to be selected as the best TV series in "The World of Couples".
After all, in terms of popularity and reputation, "The World of Couples" has crushed many selected dramas, and the inability to be shortlisted for the drama in the end has also become a great regret for drama fans.
But each award organizing committee will have unique evaluation criteria, and we don’t know what this criteria is.
Some netizens also believe that "The World of Couples" was questioned by relevant departments during the broadcast because of its excessive bloody ratings and content. Perhaps it is because of this that it cannot be awarded the award.
However, for the drama party, as long as the audience recognizes the quality of the drama, their purpose seems to be achieved. We can also expect Kim Hee Ai and Park Hae-joon to win some personal awards.
Many people have not found Lee Min Ho after looking at the entire list, which is beyond everyone's expectations.
Lee Min Ho launched the drama "The Forever Monarch" in 2020. Although the ratings and reputation are not satisfactory, the discussion of the drama is actually far higher than that of "Convenience Store Rising Star" starring Ji Chang Wook. In the end, the drama not only failed to be shortlisted for the best TV series, but the two starring actors Lee Min Ho and Kim Goe-eun were also unsuccessful.
plus Kim Hee Ai has not been nominated yet. If such a result does not change in the end, it may cause controversy.
Some netizens also think that perhaps this is the feedback from the market. After all, the public always has higher expectations for male gods of Lee Min Ho, and "The Forever Monarch" obviously did not meet expectations.
Lee Min Ho seems to be more cautious when choosing scripts and partners, otherwise it will be difficult for him to maintain his position in the film and television industry.
Of course, there are still several awards that have not been announced for the shortlist, and Lee Min Ho is not impossible to be shortlisted, so we might as well wait and see.
What is the list of winners in your mind?
