Squid Game star O Yeong-su has made history by becoming the first Korean actor to win a Golden Globe award.
The 77-year-old South Korean actor was awarded the prize for Best Supporting Actor in Television for his role in the smash-hit Netflix show.
He beat out fellow nominees including Succession's Kieran Culkin, Ted Lasso's Brett Goldstein, and The Morning Show's Billy Crudup.
The historic victory was announced on Monday at a private ceremony in Los Angeles after controversially undiverse nominations led to the usual glitzy event being canceled, TIME reports.
O Yeong-su began his career in 1967, when he quickly became a star of the stage. The South Korean actor appeared in over 200 theater productions before making the switch to on-screen roles.
Despite his long career, O Yeong-su only recently found international fame for playing Oh II-nam - also referred to as The Host or Player 001 - in the dystopian Netflix drama Squid Game.
Since being released in September, the South Korean show has rocketed to the top of Netflix's most-watched list, becoming its most popular series in 94 countries.
So far, an estimated 142 million households have tuned in to the drama, which follows 456 heavily indebted players competing in school-yard games for a life-changing cash prize. The twist? Losers aren't just eliminated - they're killed on the spot.
The show was nominated for Best Television Drama Series at the Golden Globes this year but lost out to HBO's Succession.
O Yeong-su's co-star Lee Jung-Jae (Seong Gi-hun) was also up for an award - Best Actor in a Television Drama Series - but again lost to Succession's Jeremy Strong.
Other big winners included Stephen Spielberg's West Side Story and Netflix's movie The Power of the Dog, which both claimed best Motion Picture awards at a muted ceremony that looked very different to previous years.
A storm of bad press including allegations of corruption and a lack of diversity in the Globes' voting body led to A-Listers, studios, and networks withdrawing from the event, The Guardian reports.
In place of live coverage and a glamorous red carpet, the ceremony was held privately at the Beverly Hilton hotel. Results were announced via social media.
