The Paeksang Arts Awardswere held at the Olympic Park in Seoul on April 26th, and JYJ's Park Yoochun received a noteworthy award.

Park Yoochun attended the 48th annual Paeksang Arts Awards hosted by Lee Hwi Jae and Kim Ah Joong, and was awarded the 'Popularity Award' for his performance in 'Miss Ripley'.

His brother Park Yoohwan was also nominated for this award, and Yoochun remarked that he would like his brother to win.

However when asked to say a few words to Yoohwan, Park Yoochun remarked, "Yoohwan, I think it's a bit too soon for you to win this award. Let's work hard," causing the other guests to explode into laughs.
