Jeon Hyun-moo, Lee Jang-woo, and Yoon Eun-hye will host the entertainment awards ceremony. Previously, Lee Hye Ri was also confirmed as a show host. However, reports reveal that Lee Hye-ri’s appearance was canceled due to the change in the original schedule of the award ceremony.
Where to Watch
MBC Entertainment Awards 2024 will be aired from MBC. Global fans can watch the show on MBC’s online portal.
The award show was originally scheduled to take place at the end of December. The awards show’s cancellation was caused by the tragic Jeju Air crash on December 29. True to South Korea’s deeply rooted cultural values, MBC joined other networks in putting celebrations on hold during this period of national mourning.
