Lee Sung Min, the veteran actor who portrayed Goo Beom Mo, delivered an emotional and humorous acceptance speech that left the audience in awe.
Initially, Lee Sung Min expressed his surprise, saying, 'I can't deny that I had a tiny glimmer of hope, but usually, I just clap until my hands are on fire and go home. Today, I clapped a lot more! Every time I'm nominated, I wonder if I should prepare a speech, but this time, I didn't. It felt like a role I couldn't possibly win, so thank you for giving me this award.'
He then proceeded to thank the director, Park Chan Wook, and the rest of the cast and crew. However, in a surprising turn of events, Lee Sung Min turned back to the microphone and shouted, 'Honestly, I thought Park Hee Soon would be nominated.' He then addressed his junior actor and co-star, Park Hee Soon, who was not nominated. Lee Sung Min's heartfelt apology and gratitude for Park Hee Soon's absence sparked laughter and admiration from the audience.
This moment has sparked curiosity and discussion among fans, with many praising Lee Sung Min's humility and appreciation for his colleagues. The Blue Dragon Awards, known for their prestigious recognition of Korean cinema, showcased not only the winners' achievements but also the deep respect and camaraderie within the industry.
