Song Hye Kyo did not attend the 2021 SBS Drama Awards despite being listed as a nominee for Daesang.
On December 31, the 2021 SBS Drama Awards officially took place. Song Hye Kyo appeared in the nominations for Daesang along with Kim So Yeon, Honey Lee,…
Although the drama Now, We Are Breaking Up led by Song Hye Kyo did not achieve outstanding success, Song Hye Kyo was still nominated for Daesang, sparking controversy over whether or not SBS was favoring the A-list actress.
However, Song Hye Kyo did not show up at the award show, perhaps because of the pandemic or conflicted schedules. The Korean media and netizens were curious about the actress’s unspecified reason for her absence.
A Korean media outlet also pointed out that at the time the 2021 SBS Drama Awards took place, Song Hye Kyo posted selfies with her puppy on her personal Instagram. Some netizens claim she was being unprofessional.
Fans jump to Song Hye Kyo’s defense and say that she usually does not care about year-end awards. Moreover, it is possible that Song Hye Kyo knew she could not win against actresses with outstanding performances this year like Kim So Yeon and Honey Lee, so it is understandable that she chose to not attend.
