Second place was taken by Jang Chae-won, a transsexual who appeared on the SBS' entertainment show "Truth Game"  last Tuesday. It is the second time for Jang to be in the spotlight since appearing on the same program before the sex-change operation three years ago, dressed as woman.

Third was Jeon Do-yeon, who won the best actress award at this year's Cannes Film Festival. Jeon, 34, won for her role as a widow struggling to cope with the loss of her husband and son in the movie "Secret Sunshine."
