Actor Youn Yuh-jung, who played a Korean billionaire in the drama 'Beef Season 2,' is drawing attention for being nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Emmy Awards, the most prestigious broadcasting awards in the United States.

The nominees for the Emmy Awards, which will be held in Los Angeles this coming September, were recently announced.

In particular, Youn Yuh-jung, who played the role of Chairman Park, a Korean billionaire who acquired a country club in the Netflix series 'Beef Season 2,' caught the eye by being nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

In the drama, Youn starred alongside Song Kang-ho as a couple with an age gap.

Attention is focused on whether Youn, who became the first Korean actor to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress five years ago for the film 'Minari,' will also take home an Emmy.

'Beef Season 2,' directed by Korean-American director Lee Sung-jin, has been nominated in 16 categories at this year's Emmys, including Best Drama Series, as well as nominations for lead and supporting actors and actresses.
