59th Baeksang Arts Awards: Nominees

ok, I’m waiting for this post actually … haha. There are some highs and lows from the nominations – let’s start with the negatives first :

(-) :

– The biggest snub is where is Uhm Ji Won and Uhm Ki Joon for Best Supporting Actress and Supporting Actor? The absence of Uhm Ji Won would make the Supporting Actress an easy pick, Lim Ji Yeon is the absolute winner here.

– Also missing is Kim Hae Sook for Best Supporting Actress for UtQU. I really think there should be 3 villainess for best supporting actress which represented in Uhm Ji Won, Lim Ji Yeon, and Kim Hae Sook’s characters. All actresses gave damn great performances. You can argue that Yoo Sun in Eve should also be considered to join the mix.

-No love for Call it Love and Love to Hate You? I guess these 2 dramas doesn’t make much buzz in SK, aren’t they…. (I noticed that Baeksang also about the buzz as well)

– I would like to see Kim Young Kwang nominated for either Somebody or Call it Love, sure Somebody is a controversial drama but his performance as psychopath there is nothing short of phenomenal.

– Still about Somebody; the lead girl in that drama (who’s her name?) also deserve to be nominated in Best New Actress category. And so does Shin Ye Eun (The Glory), Go Youn Jung (Alchemy of Souls 2), and Jang Yoon Ju (Money Heist).

– Speaking of Alchemy of Souls, personally I disagree with Hong Sisters being nominated for best screenplay …. because of the letdown that is the 2nd season, I consider it to be one of their weaker works.

– The Glory receive waaay too many nominations (IMHO) just because it is the most “recently trending” series just before the awards. Our Blues should’ve receive more love (I would like to replace 2-3 Supporting Actor/ress noms with Our Blues performers, instead).

– Bloody Heart also deserve more love; the cinematography, the acting; of Jang Hyuk/Park Ji Yeon … well ….

– How good is Anna? Haven’t watched it, and I’m not a fan of Suzy so I guess there are still bias in my part here …
