The on-screen couple from "Who Killed Her," Christopher Lee and Jessica Hsuan, took home the Best Actor and Best Actress awards at the Red Star Awards 2025, with Christopher Lee sweeping 3 awards and becoming the big winner! The Red Star Awards 2025 ceremony was held on the evening of the 6th at Mediacorp's The Theatre, marking its 30th year with the theme "Journeying with Time". More than 200 celebrities gathered together, with Chow Yun Fat (Fat Gor), Sean Lau, and Kit Chan invited as guest presenters. Jessica Hsuan won Best Actress for her role as "Shao Ruoyun" in "Who Killed Her," beating out Huang Xuanting, Chen Fengling, Rebecca Lim, and Hong Ling. Jessica had previously won Best Actress in a Web Series at the 29th Asian Television Awards for the same role. In her acceptance speech, she said: "This is the darkest role I’ve ever played in my 30-plus years of acting. It gave me the most unhappy two months ever. Thank you to the fans, and to all of you who liked this character. Thanks to my team. Actually, a good drama isn't the work of just one person; this award isn’t the result of just one person’s effort, either. Most important are my acting partners. I want to thank my husband in the drama, Ming Shun and Xin Xiang—you both had a big influence and helped me a lot! I'll keep working hard, and I hope to keep acting as I get old, always bringing you better works. Thank you!"

He received his trophy from Sean Lau and thanked all the staff and actors in the production: "I'm really surprised! This was a very dark drama, with every character in a bad mood, and every time I tried to ask Jessica out for a meal, I couldn’t make it happen, haha! Filming wasn’t easy, but we handled all the challenges professionally. I’ve always believed acting isn’t about chasing awards, but about resonating with audiences. Thank you for supporting this show." In addition to Best Actor, Christopher Lee also received the Special Achievement Award and Best Variety & Info Programme Host award. "Seven-time Best Actor" Chen Hanwei brought home his third Best Supporting Actor trophy for "Unforgivable Sin." The Best Supporting Actress award went to Hui Meizhen for "Rebirth from Water." After six nominations, she finally took home the prize this time.
