Without a live television or streaming event, the Golden Globes were quieter than usual this year, but still, some stars made history at the awards ceremony. Michaela Jaé Rodriguez became the first trans woman to win a Golden Globe for her role in "Pose." And "Squid Game" star O Yeong-su became the first Korean actor to win a Golden Globe.
O's portrayal of "Player 001" – which came with at twist – stuck with fans of the ultra-popular "Squid Game," and earned him the best supporting actor in a television series award. The show quickly became Netflix's biggest series launch ever, with "111 million fans," the streaming service said in October.
The 77-year-old South Korean star is "widely regarded as one of the greatest stage actors in South Korea," according to the Globes. He has appeared in over 200 stage productions and has held television and film roles.
