NL [8:14 KST]: The shoes are gorgeous! Love the detail

NL [8:15 KST]: Sexy and cute is the concept?

GH [8:15 KST]: She′ll be MCing later on during the actual ceremony.

GH [8:16 KST]: Next up is comedian Heo Kyung Hwan and stylist Jung Yoon Gi.

EE [8:16 KST]: Love these men! They′re so funny - even though one′s a stylist...

GH [8:16 KST]: Kind of a random pairing, but Heo Kyung Hwan′s getting really popular these days as a stylish ′Flower Beggar′ on Gag Concert

NL [8:16 KST]: Yeah, the pairing is as odd as the words "flower beggar" together

NL [8:17 KST]: Jung Yoon Gi is also the host of Homme 4.0

GH [8:18 KST]: Coming next on the red carpet is..... Yoon Gun!

NL [8:18 KST]: He keeps it simple and clean in a black suit and skinny tie

GH [8:19 KST]: Yoon Gun has been the guest judge in Psy′s place on Superstar K4 because Psy is busy being an international star.

EE [8:19 KST]: Yoon Gun looks thinner! Maybe he dieted for the SIA

NL [8:19 KST]: He also just released a new single - perfect for the fall weather

GH [8:20 KST]: Yoon Gun enjoys the vintage style....

NL [8:20 KST]: It′s Kim Sung Soo in a long overcoat

NL [8:21 KST]: Looks like he walked out of a fall catalogue

EE [8:21 KST]: He definitely looks fall - appropriate for the fall leaves!

GH [8:22 KST]: They′re talking about his hot body and how all clothes look good on him.


EE [8:22 KST]: Does someone have a crush on him...?

GH [8:23 KST]: Actress Hwang Shin Hae is next. She is just gorgeous. I can′t believe her age.

NL [8:23 KST]: But her dress...ages her I think

GH [8:23 KST]: Her dress concept is to go dancing~~Flamingo~ Ha!

GH [8:30 KST]: Kim Sung Eun is now on the carpet~

EE [8:30 KST]: Wow she went super casual

GH [8:30 KST]: I can′t believe she′s a mom. Her body is amazing.

EE [8:30 KST]: She′s a mom?!?

GH [8:30 KST]: Yup, she married a soccer player, I think

GH [8:31 KST]: She′s one of those lucky chosen ones who lost weight quickly after pregnancy

EE[8:31 KST]: Wish that would happen to me - and I′m not even pregnant

GH [8:32 KST]: Go Joon Hee on the carpet! Wearing really skinny skinny jeans

GH [8:32 KST]: And a fancy jacket!

EE[8:32 KST]: Wow, she′s also super skinny!

EE[8:32 KST]: But why jeans on the red carpet...?

GH [8:33 KST]: Are they...like all models or something?

EE [8:33 KST]: They′re so good looking!

GH [8:35 KST]: It′s weird seeing them all dressed up. Usually they′re always wearing sweaters and comfortable clothes for camping

EE [8:36 KST]: A spaceman?

GH [8:35 KST]: Next is the Top Gear mascot, Stick! and Park Joon Gyu, and Kim Jin Pyo.

EE [8:35 KST]: OHH. Got it.

GH [8:36 KST]: ....as in driving stick...maybe?

NL [8:36 KST]: That′s kind of a stretch...

GH [8:40 KST]: She looks young enough to be part of Wonder Girls

GH [8:40 KST]: There must be a lot of car traffic. All the stars are mentioning it.

EE [8:40 KST]: It is Rush Hour

EE [8:40 KST]: The nominees, again!

EE [8:41 KST]: Ah, someone just notified us that it′s STIG not Stick - Thanks for the correction!!

GH [8:42 KST]: Jang Yoon Ju is walking the carpet, looking beautiful as always. Korea′s top model!!

EE [8:45 KST]: Aww, such bad timing. They were adorably sweet together

EE [8:45 KST]: I LOVE her shoes!

GH [8:46 KST]: Suzy′s concept is "Young Suzy"

EE [8:46 KST]: Isn′t that redundant??

GH [8:46 KST]: The MCs asked if she can do different poses. Actress vs sexy singer

GH [8:47 KST]: Her fans gave her the earrings!! So cute of her to wear them tonight!

GH [8:48 KST]: Next up is Lee Ji Hoon and Seo Woo. Black and white concept!

EE [8:50 KST]: ODAGIRI JOE!!

GH [8:50 KST]: and he....just tried to throw a flower..and failed...

EE[8:50 KST]: But he looked so good anyway

GH [8:51 KST]: REPLY 1997!!!!! YOON JAE AND SI WON!!

GH [8:51 KST]: Aka Seo In Guk and Jung Eun Ji from A Pink

GH [8:52 KST]: Seo In Guk looks so formal next to her

GH [8:52 KST]: Jung Eun Ji is doing the Busan accent at the MC′s request.

EE [8:52 KST]: Doesn′t she always have that accent?

GH [8:53 KST]: That′s what I thought....

EE [8:53 KST]: Did Seo In Guk perm his hair?

GH [8:54 KST]: Seo In Guk said, "I was hit a lot by Jung Eun Ji and had a lot of body aches." Jung Eun Ji says she has a fierce hand.
