I did like the awards show for the same reason as you sis nzida. There were so many Min-Hye moments and the camera constantly panned on Min Ho and Shin Hye. I do think that Min Ho was the center of attention in the awards show. Almost every segment had something to do with him!
The only performance I liked were the kids' one. They were so cute! I was thinking the same!! Shouldn't they give something to the people behind the scenes? Best writer, which would be Kim Eun Sook? Best producer? Best scenery? I would have TOTALLY loved it if both Min Ho and Shin Hye sang their corresponding OST songs or had a duet together. That's why I loved the 2009 performance of ANJELL!! Overall, I did like it though. I still find it is one of the best awards show I've seen thus far because of the biases.
I was looking around at the other stars' accolades. Rest assured sisters. Lee Bo Young, who won Daesang this year, only received her first Top Excellence Award last year and her first Excellence Award the year before but it took 10 years to make it to where she is and she is older than Shin Hye by a good 11 years. So Ji Sub has been around for 16 years and the best he has won is Top Excellence. But here is a pattern I've found. For one particular station, if you have already won a certain award, you will not win anything less than that with the same station in the future. So what I am saying is that if Shin Hye has another drama with SBS and wins an award for acting, she can't win anything LESS than Excellence so she will either continue to win Excellence or win the more prestigious ones like Top Excellence or Daesang. That's why Min Ho was able to predict what he was going to win. Because he has been winning Top 10 and Top Excellence for the last 2 years with SBS, he can't get anything less than those two. The next award up would be Daesang but he has a bit too young for that. This ranking makes sense because how do you become less of an actor with time?
So gals, Shin Hye may just continue winning Excellence or Top Excellence for awhile with SBS.
I think that each station gives different awards. Not sure if SBS ever gave best director or writer.
