Song Seung-Hyeon Receives Hallyu Award

South Korean actor Song Seung-Hyeon received the Hallyu award in Seoul this January 13th, from the Tourism Minister Yu In-Chon. He was presented the award for his contribution to the promotion of the Hallyu.

Although I really think he deserved the award, is there any other actor you can think of who might have deserved this honor as well? Lee Jun Ki? U GUN? Pop star Bi Rain? I'm looking forward to your feedback.

That is pretty surprising considering all the other actors who have more international popularity & exposure. I would have picked someone like Lee Jun Ki ("My Girl" & "The King & the Clown"), Kim Ah Joong ("200 Pounds Beauty"), Yoon Eun Hye ("Coffee Prince" & "Palace"), Song Hye Kyo ("Full House" & "All In"), or even Lee Byung Hun. That's right, the korean guy on G.I. Joe. He's been on "All In" & "Iris". Rain would have been an obvious choice. You'd have to have been living under a rock to not have heard of him. I think Jang Na Ra would have been a good choice as well if it weren't for the scandal about the movie she was in.
