Early results from shortly after the voting suggest a close competition. For men Hyun Bin is trailing Ong Seong-wu by a few thousand votes and all other competitors being significantly farther behind than either. For women Lee Ji-eun led Son Ye-jin by a few thousand votes with Kim Da-mi behind by a larger margin, albeit not impossibly so.
The current leaders are unknown. The final winners will be announced at the Baeksang Arts Awards ceremony on June 5th, which will begin at five 'o clock in the afternoon at the Kintex Convention Center in Goyang.
