This year, actor Byun Woo-seok, who has truly created a syndrome, has been crowned the best actor of the year.
According to the final voting results of the '2024 Global Hot Character Awards' held on the global fandom platform UPICK from the 18th to the 27th, actor Byun Woo-seok secured the top spot after a fierce competition with Rowoon and Song Kang.
Having already claimed six titles at the 'Hot Character Awards' this year, Byun Woo-seok's strong performance raised expectations about whether he could achieve a seventh title by maintaining first place in the year-end voting, and he ultimately achieved the honor of winning.

As the final first-place winner, actor Byun Woo-seok will receive five domestic package advertisements (Lotte World Mall Art Canvas, Lotte World Chandelier, City Building, CM Board, Hongdae Airport Railroad) and a donation of 1 million won as a special reward. The advertisements will be produced and aired by Byun Woo-seok's fans, adding even more significance.
The drama 'Seonjae Up Go Tui', which has propelled Byun Woo-seok to stardom, was recently selected by the American weekly magazine Time as the 'Best K-Drama of 2024', proving its ongoing popularity and relevance as a strong contender for various awards.
Meanwhile, UPICK is currently conducting the final year-end voting for the '2024 Best Position Awards' and has been selected as the official voting application for 'The Awards (D Awards)', which will be held on February 22 next year at Korea University's Hwajeong Gymnasium in Anam-dong, Seoul, preparing various voting and events.
