'Lost' Star Kim Yunjin Hotly Tipped for Emmy

Earlier this month, TV Guide magazine names Kim Yunjin a strong candidate for this year's best supporting actress in a drama, and on June 16, USA Today also included her on its list of candidates for this year's awards.

Emmy nominees are announced in mid-July, and the awards ceremony is held in September.

"Lost" has enjoyed explosive popularity since it first hit the airwaves in September, and was extended to 24 episodes. Fellow "Lost" stars Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly are also hotly tipped for the lead actor and actress award in the drama category.

Kim is currently in Korea shooting the film "June Diary". She plans to set off for Hawaii in mid-July for shooting of the second season of "Lost".
