Lee Chan-won Wins Top Prize at 2024 KBS Entertainment Awards

Singer Lee Chan-won took home the grand prize at the 2024 KBS Entertainment Awards, held on December 21 at 9:20 PM on KBS2. He was awarded both the 'Entertainer of the Year' and the top honor of the night. In his acceptance speech, Lee reflected on his journey, stating, "I first stepped into KBS through the program 'National Singing Contest' in 2008, and after debuting in 2020, I've participated in many KBS shows. Recently, I've heard comments questioning why a singer like me is so focused on broadcasting instead of just singing. However, I've loved broadcasting and entertainment since I was young, and I will never give up my path as a broadcaster and entertainer."

During the ceremony, Lee showcased his versatility by co-hosting the event alongside Lee Joon and Lee Young-ji. He smoothly guided the year-end awards show and delighted the audience with a performance of 'Jin Tto Baegi,' providing both visual and auditory enjoyment.

Lee Chan-won has been actively engaging with viewers through various programs this year, including 'Immortal Songs' and new shows like 'High-End Salt Bug' and 'Celebrity Soldier's Secret,' where he also serves as an MC. Following his impressive performance at the 2024 KBS Entertainment Awards, he is set to continue connecting with fans through KBS2's 'Immortal Songs,' 'New Menu Launch Restaurant,' and 'Celebrity Soldier's Secret,' with an upcoming appearance at the '2024 SBS Trot Competition' on December 26.
