Duane Clark, who won the Best Producer Award at the Seoul Drama Awards (SDAs), was pleasantly surprised when he realized that the "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" (CSI) series was so popular in Korea.

"This is my first time in Asia. I knew the series was popular around the world but I didn't realize how big it was in Korea specifically. Now I understand", he said during an interview with The Korea Times. Clark is one of the five directors who take part in the making of each season.

When asked how he felt about his win, Clark laughed and held up his trophy.

"It's fantastic. It's very special to win an award that has no politics attached to it", he said.
Clark started with fantasy and science fiction works like "Highlander" and "Stargate" as a director, and also on the legal-drama show "The Practice".

"I then began doing `CSI: Las Vegas' and `CSI: Miami' and I ended up doing a lot of them. Then I got a reputation for that", he explained.
