Na Inwoo and Shin Hyesun Capture Steady Support in Netizen Awards
As June draws to a close, the Netizen Awards are in full swing—and while the top rankings may seem locked, the middle tier is where things get interesting. Actors Na Inwoo and Shin Hyesun are holding their ground in this unpredictable territory, showcasing quiet influence backed by unwavering fan support.
Na Inwoo: The Steady Symbol of Youthful Gravitas
Currently sitting at 5th place for Best Actor with 1,988 votes (4.0%), Na Inwoo remains consistent amid a fierce battle for the mid-tier positions. While he may trail the top four—Byeon Wooseok, Park Jihoon, Rowoon, and Lee Joon-gi—he has maintained stability against fellow contenders like Lee Junho, Jang Geunsuk, and Uhm Taegoo.
Known for his versatile roles in K-dramas, Na Inwoo draws steady admiration from viewers who value acting depth over flashy appeal. In fact, his reliable screen presence and subtle charisma have built a “trust-based fandom,” which could lead to a late-stage voting surge.
Shin Hyesun: Quiet Strength with Loyal Backing
In the Best Actress category, Shin Hyesun ranks 6th with 2,980 votes (3.2%), just 298 behind 5th-place Im Yoona. With such a narrow gap, even a single day of strong voting could flip the standings.
Shin Hyesun has long been praised for her calm yet powerful performances, resonating particularly with a loyal base of drama fans and female viewers. This loyal core could very well push her higher in the final stages of the competition.
Middle Rankings Hold the Real Drama
While Byeon Wooseok (20,632 votes) and Kim Hyeyoon (54,357 votes) lead the male and female categories by a landslide, the mid-tier rankings—where Na Inwoo and Shin Hyesun currently stand—remain fluid. Changes in fan momentum could completely reshape the outcome before voting ends.
Rather than being driven solely by aggressive campaigning, both actors are benefiting from long-term trust and engagement from their fans. Their steady presence is a reminder that meaningful recognition often grows from consistency, not just headlines.
Could a Late Surge Shift the Balance?
As the clock ticks down, all eyes remain on the middle ranks. Whether Na Inwoo and Shin Hyesun will rise higher remains to be seen—but their quiet strength and loyal fans suggest this story isn’t over yet.
