On the afternoon of April 28th, the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards was held at Incheon Paradise City, Incheon. The awards ceremony was hosted by broadcaster Shin Dong Yup, actors Suzy and Park Bo Gum.
On this day, Lee Sung Min won Best Actor in the TV category. He left a deep impression by playing Chairman Jin Yang Chul in JTBC’s drama “Reborn Rich”.
Lee Sung Min said, “Kim Shin Rok was a candidate (for Best Supporting Actress in the TV category), but she was eliminated. Kim Do Hyun was a candidate (for Best Supporting Actor in the TV category), but he was also eliminated. I was wondering what I should do if I failed after applauding for 2 hours and 30 minutes, but thank you for saving my face.“
He continued, “We filmed ‘Reborn Rich’ for exactly one year. Thank you to the director for his hard work. It wasn’t easy, but all the staff and actors worked so hard.“
In particular, Lee Sung Min drew attention by mentioning Song Joong Ki, the main actor of “Reborn Rich”. He expressed his gratitude, “Song Joong Ki should have come here. He said he’s far away now. I’d like to thank my grandson Song Joong Ki as well as Shin Hyun Bin.“
Netizens expressed surprise at Lee Sung Min’s acceptance speech, “It feels like Hollywood to mention Song Joong Ki in front of Song Hye Kyo“, “I’m so glad they both did well“, “Congratulations, actor Lee Sung Min“, “I was nervous“, “I really liked the results today“…
The Best Actress award in the TV category belonged to actress Song Hye Kyo, who starred in Netflix’s drama “The Glory”. Song Hye Kyo heated up the atmosphere by saying, “I got an award, Yeon Jin ah. I’m really excited right now.“
