[+260, -7] Why did Rowoon get one...
- [+56, -4] For real, what has he even done ㅋㅋㅋ
- [+49, -5] Maybe for being tall
- [+20, -2] He's under FNC which is known for being an agency that makes moves for their artists, getting them in a ton of varieties, dramas, and TV shows. Seolhyun used to be under them, as well as Moon Se Yoon, Lee Guk Joo, Jung Hae In, etc. They have a lot of famous variety stars.

[+90, -2] KBS lost their name a long time ago. Just a bunch of outdated boomers making the decisions now.

[+82, -3] Ah... I really enjoyed Kim Dong Wook's drama too ㅠㅠ

[+42, -1] You get one, you get one, you get one too

[+11, -0] The fact that idols got awards over people like Jang Dong Yoon, Kim Dong Wook.. especially an idol that had an acting controversy, come on

[+10, -1] Ridiculous that UEE got top excellence

[+8, -0] Kim Dong Wook and Jang Dong Yoon needed top excellence at the very minimum... they were much better actors than the three idols who won it, and had way better viewer ratings too...

[+7, -0] I never trust these awards anymore. Lee Jun Ki and Kim Rae Won have done so much over the years for SBS dramas but never once won a daesang while Kim Tae Ri got one for some drama that barely got 9% viewer ratings. How could such a drama be put on the same level as Lee Je Hoon's drama that got 20% viewer ratings? Ridiculous. The trophies basically go to whoever they favor. Kim Tae Ri should've just gotten top excellence and daesangs should've gone to both Lee Je Hoon and Kim Rae Won as co-winners.

[+3, -0] KBS cares more about popularity than acting talent. So rotten of them to give top excellence trophies out to people who've had acting controversies all year. 

[+2, -0] Jang Dong Yoon had high viewer ratings in KBS all year with excellent acting skills and only won excellence. Rowoon's crappy acting won top excellence. How? Does talent no longer matter?

[+1, -0] Should've been Jang Dong Yoon top excellence, Rowoon excellence...
