'Baeksang Arts Awards' Legendary 3 MCs Shin Dong-yup, Suzy, and Park Bo-gum Confirmed for Eighth Pairing

[JTBC Reporter Jo Yeon-kyung, Entertainment News Team] The three MCs who come to mind first when thinking of the 'Baeksang Arts Awards'—Shin Dong-yup, Suzy, and Park Bo-gum—will take the stage to host the awards ceremony again this year.

Shin Dong-yup, Suzy, and Park Bo-gum will serve as MCs for the '62nd Baeksang Arts Awards with Gucci,' which will be held at Coex Hall D in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, on May 8 at 7:50 PM. This marks the eighth time the three have held the microphone together. They have now become perfect Baeksang hosts, capable of displaying flawless chemistry just by looking into each other's eyes.

Shin Dong-yup, the "center of the Baeksang" who is making his twelfth appearance, served as MC from the 50th to the 52nd ceremonies and has held the MC seat for nine consecutive years, from the 54th to this year's 62nd. As an authority on live broadcasting who boasts a formidable presence every year, he is expected to deliver a humorous yet stable wit once again this year. In particular, Shin Dong-yup, who proved his continued presence by winning the Best Male Variety Performer award last year, is also scheduled to appear as a presenter in the same category this year. Attention is focused on who will receive the trophy from the veteran entertainer Shin Dong-yup.

Suzy, the undisputed 'Icon of Baeksang,' celebrates her monumental 10th anniversary as an MC last year and graces the Baeksang Awards for the 11th consecutive year. Having attended every single year since the 52nd ceremony in 2016, the Baeksang Awards and Suzy, and Suzy and Baeksang, have become inseparable. Being able to see Suzy, who has confidently established herself as both an icon of growth and the Baeksang Awards, every year is one of the highlights the event boasts. On this warm spring day welcoming Baeksang and Suzy, we look forward to seeing what refreshing charms she will showcase this year.

Park Bo-gum is the "Face of Baeksang," whose mere presence makes the awards ceremony shine. With his eye-catching visuals, hosting skills, and universally acknowledged positive influence, Park Bo-gum perfectly embodies the identity of Baeksang, which prioritizes fairness and trustworthiness above all else. After making his debut at the 54th ceremony, he took a brief leave for the 57th due to military service, only to solidify his loyalty by taking the stage at the 58th Baeksang as his first official engagement after discharge. Now, having served as MC for five consecutive years through the 62nd ceremony and marking his eighth appearance, Park Bo-gum is about to celebrate the 10th anniversary. Thanks to the reliable Park Bo-gum, Baeksang feels secure once again this year.
