'The Slave Hunters', Best Program in 2010    --  KBS drama 'The Slave Hunters' gained the highest honor at the 37th Korea Broadcasting Awards, the nation’s most prestigious broadcasting award celebrated annually as part of the Broadcasting Day of Korea.  KBS has thus become the winner of the prestigious award over the last three consecutive years, following 'Asian Corridor in Heaven' in 2008 and 'Noodle Road' in 2009. At a ceremony held on September 3 at KBS Hall which was hosted by the Korean Broadcasters Association, 'The Slave Hunters' also won awards for the Best Drama (short TV drama category), Best Director and Best Screenplay.  Set during the Joseon Dynasty of Korea, the drama revolves around the world of slave hunters and slaves.  The magnificent scale, tight-knit plot and breathtaking action scenes of the drama have drawn significant attention. Its high-profile cast, which includes Jang Hyuk, Lee Da-hae and Oh Ji-ho, is another reason this drama has received the spotlight. * Buy Now on EOR: Vol 1, Vol 2 * Watch Now Online at KBSWORLDi.com: 'Click'

Two Sons Face Off Over Family Business in ‘Bread, Love and Dreams’ The family of the business group Geoseong have been shocked to learn that their father Gu Il-jung (Jun Guang-lyul) entrusted managerial rights to his out-of-wedlock son, Kim Tak-gu (Yoon Si-yoon) in the episode 25 of ‘Bread, Love and Dreams.’ The family’s eldest daughter Ja-gyeong (Choi Ja-hye) and son Ma-jun (Ju Won) feel hostile toward Tak-gu, and Ma-jun even plots to oust Tak-gu. He has always felt inferior to his half-brother due to their father’s trust in him. In preparing for a board meeting, Tak-gu studies many reports and documents to find out how the company has been operated and tastes all the bread it has produced to analyze why they succeeded or failed.  But Ma-jun tries to win over board directors by providing illicit hospitalities and buys prominent consultants and advisors to have them testify to his ability. Meanwhile, Kim Mi-sun (Jun Mi-sun), Tak-gu’s birth mother who was believed to have been dead, learns that the son of the Geoseong group who has come to head the company instead of Il-jung is her son.  She goes to take a glimpse of him at the board meeting, where Tak-gu has a hard time amid the disagreeable, arrogant members on the board. Il-jung, who is sick in bed seemingly without consciousness, surprisingly opens his eyes when his lawyer tells him that everything worked out fine, as he planned.     KBSWORLDi E-Store Sale Ends on Sep. 10th   KBSWORLDi’s E-Store has Labor Day Sale from Sep 1st to Sep 10th!
