Back for the second edition, StarHub Night of Stars 2019 was a night to remember with a star-studded line-up of 18 renowned artistes across Asia - including Korean stars, Park Min Young, Kim Jae Wook, Sung Hoon and AB6IX. Rounding off the year with a bang, the awards show celebrated the hottest line-up of Asian entertainment on StarHub with the presentation of 18 awards coupled with performances by some of the region’s biggest stars.

Starting on a high note, local songstress Joanna Dong descended from a height and dazzled the crowd with a medley of hit drama theme songs of 2019, demonstrating her musical range and versatility. The returning hosts Dennis Nieh, Lulu Huang and Kate Pang brought the house down with their levelled-up rapport. Audience members were also in for a treat with performances by superstar Ekin Cheng, music sensation Yoga Lin and the rising K-POP idol group AB6IX. AB6IX stunned the crowd with an electrifying performance of their hit songs 'Breathe' and 'Blind For Love'.

The ultimate accolades of the night, the 2019 StarHub Best Male and Female Asian Star Awards, were presented to Kim Jae Wook and Park Min Young respectively. Both Korean stars were the leads in romantic comedy Her Private Life, sharing impeccable on-screen chemistry.

A cast member of popular reality show I Live Alone, Sung Hoon showcased an uncensored look into his personal life - his huge appetite and quirky habits stole the hearts of fans worldwide and earned him the 2019 StarHub Dazzling Star Award. The 2019 StarHub Most Promising Actor Award was awarded to Ong Seong Wu for his acting debut in At Eighteen, earning critical acclaim for his portrayal of a reclusive high school student.
