The grand event of the Korean film industry, the Blue Dragon Awards, concluded successfully on the evening of the 19th. The 'fairy couple' Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin being crowned Best Actor and Best Actress was originally a classic moment, but some netizens criticized it as 'meat splitting'. Today (22nd), Son Ye-jin responded to the criticism with high emotional intelligence, saying, “I was just lucky to receive such a precious and important award. I will never take it for granted! I’ll repay everyone with even better acting.” She also rarely posted a photo with her husband, Hyun Bin.
Having received doubts about her Best Actress win, Son Ye-jin added to her Blue Dragon Best Actress acceptance speech earlier on Instagram, admitting she still could not believe she had won, which is why she did not say beautiful words or give a complete thank-you speech at the time. “Revolver was my long-awaited return to the big screen and also my first project after getting married. I was full of worries at first, but because of director Park Chan-wook and veteran Lee Byung-hun, I just tried my best to keep up.” She went on to thank the outstanding actors in the team: Lee Sung-min, Yum Hye-ran, Park Hee-soon and all the behind-the-scenes staff, ending with, “I was just lucky to receive such a precious and important award. I will never take it for granted! I’ll repay everyone with even better acting.” A response to the outside world showing her high EQ.
Instead of responding harshly, Son Ye-jin elegantly resolved all the awkwardness and took the opportunity to share a cute four-frame photo booth picture with her husband, making for an incredibly sweet atmosphere.
In addition, Son Ye-jin had actually revealed on stage while receiving the award that she never expected to win, so she didn’t prepare a speech. She also shared that when she won Best Actress for the first time at age 27, it was at that moment she truly realized her love for acting. And it was because she continued along this path that she met her now-husband Hyun Bin during 'Crash Landing on You.' She said she would dedicate that night’s joy to the two men she loves most in her life: Hyun Bin and her son.
