Following the release of the 2023 Baeksang Arts Awards nominations, the public noticed a number of stars who didn't get a nod at this year's ceremony.
While fans celebrate the recognition of Korean stars like Song Hye Kyo for "The Glory," veteran actor Lee Sung Min for his remarkable acting in "Reborn Rich," as well as Kim Hye Soo for her performance as the royal and dotting mother in "Under the Queen's Umbrella," others were surprised to see missing names who deserve the nomination.
With that said, here's a rundown of five shocking snubs at the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards nominations.
Kim Go Eun in 'Little Women'
From the Best Actor to Best Actress category, fans of "Alchemy of Souls" were disappointed that the fantasy romance series failed to enter the Best Drama category.
First released in June 2022, the tvN series returned with a sequel following its huge success.
Moreover, lead stars like Lee Jae Wook and Go Yoon Sung boosted their popularity, thanks to "Alchemy of Souls."
However, the 2023 Baeksang Arts Awards Best Drama category only includes 5 series: JTBC's "My Liberation Notes," Netflix's "The Glory," tvN's "Our Blues" and "Little Women" and ENA's "Extraordinary Attorney Woo."
