Kim Hye Yoon Wins Best Actress Award at Korea Broadcasting Awards
Kim Hye Yoon adds another major milestone to her 2026.
Kim Hye Yoon has been named the Female Best Acting Award winner at the 53rd Korea Broadcasting Awards for her performance as Eun Ho in SBS's fantasy romance drama No Tail to Tell.
The award was presented on September 3 at the MBC Open Hall in Sangam, Seoul, and carries an additional distinction this year: the winner of the Best Acting category was determined through 100% online audience voting for the first time in the history of the Korea Broadcasting Awards.
Kim Hye Yoon Takes Home the Acting Award
In No Tail to Tell, Kim Hye Yoon played Eun Ho, a gumiho who has no desire to become human.
The SBS drama put a fresh spin on the traditional Korean mythical creature, following Eun Ho as an unexpected encounter with football star Kang Si Yeol, played by Lomon, changes her life.
SBS lists No Tail to Tell as having aired from January 16 through February 28, 2026, with Kim Hye Yoon leading the cast as Eun Ho.
The actress was among the nominees alongside Lim Ji Yeon and Nam Ji Hyun, with the final result decided entirely by viewers.
A New Partner for ‘Good Partner 2’
Kim Hye Yoon's next major drama will take her into a completely different world.
She is set to star in SBS's Good Partner 2 alongside Jang Na Ra, becoming the new partner of veteran divorce lawyer Cha Eun Kyung.
The second season follows Cha Eun Kyung as she takes on new challenges alongside a new partner, continuing the human courtroom office drama that made the first season a hit.
SBS officially included Good Partner 2 in its 2026 drama lineup and confirmed Kim Hye Yoon as Jang Na Ra's new partner.
A Different Dynamic for Season 2
The new season will introduce a major change to the central partnership.
While Season 1 followed Cha Eun Kyung and Han Yoo Ri, played by Jang Na Ra and Nam Ji Hyun, respectively, Season 2 will pair Cha Eun Kyung with Kang Hye Sung, played by Kim Hye Yoon.
SBS describes the new story as following Cha Eun Kyung, the representative attorney of Korea's first divorce law firm, as she joins forces with a partner with whom she has a particularly difficult connection.
The new pairing gives Kim Hye Yoon an opportunity to move from the fantasy-romance world of No Tail to Tell into a legal office drama opposite Jang Na Ra.
Another Milestone in 2026
The Korea Broadcasting Awards recognition comes during a particularly active year for Kim Hye Yoon.
Following No Tail to Tell, she also appeared in the film The Damned, while her upcoming projects include Good Partner 2 and Disney+'s The Miracles of the Namiya General Store, according to the latest report.
She is also scheduled to attend the 2026 Asia Artist Awards in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, in December.
For now, her next major screen appearance will be Good Partner 2, where she will begin a new chapter alongside Jang Na Ra.
SBS has confirmed the drama as part of its 2026 lineup, although an exact premiere date has not yet been officially announced.
