Koreans Vote For Most Notable Drama And Film Actors Of 2019

Along with the polls on the top artists, songs, and idols of 2019, Gallup Korea has also revealed results for the drama stars and film stars of the year.

Gallup Korea has been holding this survey annually since 2007. This year, 1,700 people ages 13 and up located all around the country were surveyed from November 8 through 28.

The margin of error is ±2.4 percent at the 95 percent confidence level.

Respondents were asked to list up to two drama actors and two film actors who showed excellent performance in 2019.

The top 10 responses for the drama actors are as follows:

1. Gong Hyo Jin (12.4 percent)
