In commemoration of its third anniversary, South Korea’s authoritative entertainment industry media “STAR NEWS” surveyed sixty-five entertainment industry insiders in talent management agencies, television stations and film companies by special invitation to vote for “Who is the Entertainment Industry’s POWER NO. 1″ in various categories such as broadcasting, acting, and singing.
In the “Influential [Singing] Artists” category, DBSK, debuting just over three years, took the # 1 top spot with 26 votes, while sexy diva Lee Hyori landed second place with 19 votes. Although Bi (Rain), who has been advancing in Hollywood, has neglected the domestic [Korean] market lately, however, he still gained 17 votes and placed #3. SG Wannabe (16 votes), Boa (13 votes) and Super Junior (11 votes) ranked # 4 thru # 6, accordingly.
In the “Acting” category, Cannes’ winner Jeon Do Yeon (39 votes) led the # 1 position and was followed by her co-star in the movie “Secret Sunshine” Song Kang Ho for the # 2 spot with 22 votes. Jang Dong Gun (21 votes), Bae Yong Joon (20 votes), and Song Il Gook (10 votes) rounded out the # 3 thru # 5 positions.
