The 2018 MBC Drama Awards will be proceeding with this year’s ceremony similarly to last year.

Although the Grand Prize was previously determined 100 percent by viewers’ votes, starting from last year, the MBC Drama Awards has called on experts such as drama critics and MBC producing directors (PDs) to vote on the winner. The awards for Popularity and Best Couple, however, will still be chosen through viewers’ votes.
“Less Than Evil” is MBC’s final drama to be aired this year and has been enjoying high viewership ratings every week since its premiere. Many have observed that it may even become one of the nominees for this year’s awards ceremony. In response, MBC stated, “We are currently discussing matters regarding the final nominees.”
Last year’s Grand Prize was won by Kim Sang Joong for his role in “Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People.”
This year’s ceremony will take place on December 30 with Girls’ Generation’s Seohyun hosting the show.
