Korean-American actor Steven Yeun bagged the Best Actor award at the 81st Annual Golden Globes Award.
Steven Yeun marked a historic milestone at the Golden Globes held in Beverly Hills.
His groundbreaking achievement as the first actor of Asian descent to clinch the best actor award in the limited series, anthology series, or television movie category is attributed to his compelling portrayal of Danny Cho in Beef.

In his heartfelt acceptance speech, Yeun expressed gratitude for the support and love contributing to his success.
He dedicated his win to his wife, Joana, acknowledging her as his pillar of strength and emphasizing the importance of the collective compassion and goodwill that shaped his journey.
