Actors Kim Soo-hyun and Go Du-Shim took the Daesang at the KBS Drama Awards. The Daesang (or Grand Prize) is the highest award given to an actor.

Kim Soo-hyun's stirring performance in Producers, the office drama set in the entertainment department of a fictional KBS, enabled him to garner the top prize for the male category. Kim's role was the freshly-minted producer Baek Seung-chan in the 15-part series drama. It ran for 15 weeks and ended in June last year.  He also received two other awards: International Netizens' Award and Best Couple Award.

Kim's claim to fame was his role in the fantasy-romance drama You Who Came From the Stars, a story of an alien from outer space who fell for a top actress on earth. The drama became a huge hit, enough to enable Kim's popularity to reach even Mainland China. Together with co-star Jun Ji-hyun, Kim became popular actor among the young Chinese people.

Veteran actress Go Du-Shim, meanwhile, received the Daesang for her role in Please, Mom. A respected actress,  she celebrated her fortieth year as an actress in 2012.
