Considered as one of the most prestigious awarding ceremonies in the country, the Baeksang Arts Awards holds a yearly recognition for great acting performances for South Korean entertainment. This year's commencement ceremony for the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards will be on June 5, 2020 at Kintex in Ilsan, Gyeonggi Province.
The committee decided to broadcast via the live-streamed channel, JTBC, instead of getting a large audience on the day of the show. The decision for no audience to proceed is due to the pandemic COVID-19 that is still causing danger to any public events. The coverage of the selection of awardees is from April 1, 2019, to April 30, 2020.
We present you with the list of nominees below, and you may wish to support your favorite actors by performance.
