Jakarta –
If there was a figure who stole the most attention at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, it was Lee Do Hyun. Not only was the actor allowed to attend this awards event in the midst of his mandatory military service, he also won a trophy for the film Exhuma. But the spotlight for Lee Do Hyun doesn’t stop there.
In his victory speech, the man who played the Korean drama Hotel Del Luna mentioned the name of the person most special in his heart at the moment. She is actress Lim Ji Yeon, his lover. In the last few months, both of them chose to go public. But unlike most actors who seem secretive, Lee Do Hyun actually openly expresses his feelings for Lim Ji Yeon.
When receiving the Best New Actor trophy for the film category at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, Lee Do Hyun thanked Lim Ji Yeon. Oh my, how adorable?! It seems like he was inspired by Lee Jong Suk, who last year also did the same thing, saying thank you to a special figure who was later revealed to be his girlfriend: IU.
The Best New Actor trophy at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards received by Lee Do Hyun completes his journey in the world of South Korean entertainment. At the start of his TV drama career, he also received the Baeksang trophy for Best New Actor in the TV category for the Korean drama 18 Again in 2021. This year Exhuma made him the most classy actor in the Ginseng Country.
Both playing in Exhuma, Kim Go Eun also received the winning trophy at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards. The actor who played Hwarim was awarded the Best Actress trophy thanks to her acting in Exhuma. If you have watched this film, you will definitely say that he deserves all the awards for this film. Because Kim Go Eun’s acting there is really epic and really good!
Apart from the two awards above, the film Exhuma also received the Best Director award for Jang Jae Hyun, and Best Technical Direction for Kim Byung In. There were a total of four trophies that Exhuma took home at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, completing the tens of millions of cinema tickets sold during their broadcast.
