The Park brothers of Park Yoo Chun and Park Yoo Hwan are both going for an award.


Both brothers have been nominated for the 48th Paeksang Arts Awards at Seoul’s Olympic Park’s Olympic Hall, one for the popularity award and one for the rookie actor award.

Park Yoo Chun’s popularity award is nearly confirmed by the online voting while Park Yoo Hwan is a nominee for a rookie actor award for the drama, A Thousand Day’s Promise.

Last year, Park Yoo Chun won the best rookie actor award at the Paeksang Arts Awards for his role in the drama Sunkyunkwan Scandal. In the case that his brother, Park Yoo Hwan, wins the same award this year, it will mark the first time two brothers have won the same award.

Even the fact two brothers have both been nominated in one ceremony is a first for the Paeksang Arts Awards over its 48 year history.

The awards will be presided over by Lee Hwee Jae and Kim Ah Joong and will broadcast on jTBC.
