Actress Jang Nara had a night to remember as she took home the Grand Prize (Daesang) at the 2024 SBS Drama Awards!

The prestigious event, held on December 21 at SBS Prism Tower in Sangam-dong, Seoul, brought together stars and fans alike.

Hosted by Shin Dong Yup and actors Kim Hye Yoon and Kim Ji Yeon, the ceremony was a dazzling celebration of the year’s biggest dramas.

Nominees for the Grand Prize included big names like Ahn Bo Hyun (Rebel X Detective), Hwang Jung Eum (The Resurrection of Seven), Ji Sung (Connection), Jang Nara (Good Partner), Park Shin Hye (Judge from Hell), and Kim Nam Gil (The Fiery Priest 2).

Jang Nara, who shined as the lead in Good Partner, was overwhelmed with emotion during her acceptance speech. “I can’t believe this is real. I feel like I’ve experienced something truly incredible in life through SBS. I’m so grateful. Just like the title of my drama Good Partner, this award was only possible because of my amazing partners,” she said, wiping away tears.

She gave a heartfelt shoutout to her co-star, saying, “Nam Ji Hyun was the pillar of our drama and my personal pillar. Because of her, I was able to achieve so much. She was truly a blessing to both me and the drama. Thank you so much.”

Jang Nara didn’t forget to express her love and gratitude to her family, adding, “To my mom, my dad, my brother, and my husband who loves me no matter what – I love you all so much. It’s been over 20 years since I started, and seeing veteran actress Kim Young Ok here tonight reminded me I still have so much to learn. I’ll continue to work hard.”

She also spoke from the heart about her fans and viewers: “It’s a miracle for people who don’t know me personally to like me and watch the dramas I’m in. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized how precious this is, and I regret not understanding it sooner. To all the viewers, thank you so much. I’ll keep working hard to stay an actress you’re always curious about.”

Jang Nara’s winning drama, Good Partner, was a hit when it aired in July. The story, centered around a star divorce lawyer Cha Eun Kyung and her rookie partner Han Yu Ri, captivated audiences with its heartfelt human drama. The series wrapped up with an impressive peak viewership of 17.7%.

Congratulations to Jang Nara for this well-deserved win! Fans can’t wait to see what she does next.

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
