Gagman Kang Ho Dong has been chosen as the #1 comedian of 2010. Gallup Korea surveyed 1,701 Koreans over the age of 13 from November 27th through December 7th to pick the best comedian with the most career for 2010. According to the results, Kang Ho Dong received 43% of the votes, coming in at #1 and overtaking Yoo Jae Suk for the first time in five years. Kang Ho Dong had always ranked second to Yoo Jae Suk in the surveys from 2005 through 2009. Yoo Jae Suk, who took second this year, came in with 38.1% of the votes. Results further showed that Kang Ho Dong had the biggest fanbase for audiences ages 30 years and up, and is especially popular with those 50 years and up. Yoo Jae Suk overtook Kang Ho Dong in the teens to 20's category, and had more female votes as well. Third place was taken by Lee Soo Geun, who received 31.9% of the votes. His biggest fanbase lies with the teens, and he confidently beat out Kang Ho Dong and Yoo Jae Suk for that age group. Fourth was taken by Kim Byung Man, who currently stars in KBS 2TV's "Gag Concert." This is a big jump from last year's survey, in which he ranked in at ninth. Fifth was taken by Lee Kyung Kyu, followed by Park Myung Soo for 6th (fifth last year). Seven and eight were taken by female comedians Shin Bong Sun and Park Mi Sun respectively, while ninth was taken by Yoo Se Yoon; the top ten wraps up with Kim Shin Young. Source: Star News via Nate
