The popular hosting trio will return for the third time.
Shin Dong Yup, Suzy, and Park Bo Gum are tapped to host the upcoming 61st Baeksang Arts Awards, scheduled for May.
Shin Dong Yup, Suzy, and Park Bo Gum are set to host the 61st Baeksang Arts Awards, which will take place on May 5 at COEX D Hall in Seoul. This will be the third time the trio has come together to lead the ceremony, and expectations are high for an especially memorable event. With their proven hosting skills, they are expected to deliver another standout performance.
Notably, Shin Dong Yup will host the Baeksang Arts Awards for the 11th time. He has already hosted several times before, from the 50th to 52nd ceremonies, and now again from the 54th to the 61st ceremony.
As a well-known MC in Korea, Shin’s hosting skills and charm set the tone for the whole awards ceremony. This year, he is not only hosting but also nominated for an award himself, which makes it even more exciting. He has already won twice before, at the 30th and 50th ceremonies, and now he is in the running again.
This year marks a special milestone for Suzy, as she celebrates the 10th anniversary of her time as an MC at the Baeksang Arts Awards. Suzy is the first MC to have appeared every year, starting from the 52nd ceremony in 2016, where she first won the Best New Actress Award in both TV and Film categories. Over the past decade, Suzy has grown alongside Baeksang, and this year she is returning as an MC once again.
Park Bo Gum will bring his warm and comforting presence to the Baeksang Arts Awards for the seventh time. He first started hosting at the 54th ceremony and impressed audiences with his skills until the 56th ceremony. After taking a break due to military service, he returned to host the 58th ceremony and has since become a regular face of the awards. He delivered perfect hosting performances for four years in a row.
This year, he is not only hosting but also nominated for Best Actor in the Broadcast category for his role in Netflix’s “When Life Gives You Tangerines.” People are eagerly waiting to see how Park Bo Gum will shine in his dual role as host and nominee.
The 61st Baeksang Arts Awards, a comprehensive ceremony honoring broadcasting, film, and theater, has announced its nominees on April 7. The event will be hosted by the dynamic trio of Shin Dong-yup, Suzy, and Park Bo-gum. For the third year in a row, Italian luxury brand Gucci will be partnering with the awards. The ceremony will be live-streamed on JTBC, JTBC2, and JTBC4.
