Entertainers of the Year: Yunjin Kim and Daniel Dae Kim

Entertainment Weekly just released their list of Entertainers of the Year. And our beloved Jin and Sun made the list at #17.

17. YUNJIN KIM AND DANIEL DAE KIM Once upon a time in the land of Lost, a boy named Jin married a girl named Sun. Alas, they did not live happily ever after: Jin grew distant; Sun became alienated. Then they boarded Oceanic 815, and that didn't go so well either. The couple's tenuous relationship played out for years as a nuanced romantic subplot that always felt a tad removed from the other stories on the island. Until season 4, when Lost supercharged the saga of Jin (Daniel Dae Kim) and Sun (Yunjin Kim) so that the story radiated intrigue, redemption, and heartbreak, and plugged them into the greater mythology of the island. ''We have a fan base, but it tended to be fans of romance,'' says Daniel. ''The big question was 'There's a reason Jin and Sun are here. How important are they to the overall story?' [Now] we've started seeing how we tie in.'' — Dan Snierson
