Actor Ahn Bo-hyun grabbed his first Blue Dragon Film Award trophy in his life on his father's birthday.
On the 19th, the 46th Blue Dragon Film Awards took place at KBS Hall in Yeouido, Seoul. The event was co-hosted again this year by actor Han Ji-min and Lee Je-hoon.
On that day, the first presenters for the newcomer awards were actors No Sang-hyun and Shin Si A. The first winner, the best new actor award, went to Ahn Bo-hyun for the film Pretty Crazy. Ahn Bo-hyun smiled broadly, saying, "I really didn't expect this at all. Just attending held great meaning. I am very thankful once again." At his pure demeanor, senior actors in the audience responded with laughter and applause.
Then Ahn Bo-hyun said, "I was so happy to be able to play Gil-gu in 'Pretty Crazy.' I am truly grateful to Im Yoon-ah who made me shine. Senior Seong Dong-il, Hyun-young, Hyun-su, Geon-han, and all the many staff and actors, thank you very much. Thank you very much to director Lee Sang-geun who let me meet Gil-gu. I lived a long time as a boxer. I spent my school days then. The movie I saw at that time was 'Punch Is Crying.' Watching that made me want to try acting, which was the trigger. I also want to take this opportunity to thank director Ryu Seung-wan and CEO Kang Hye-jung who prayed for me today."
He also said, "There are so many people I'm grateful to. I will contact them personally. I'm very thankful to the new family at AM Entertainment," and added, "Today is my father's birthday, and it feels like a truly precious gift, so I haven't contacted him for a long time, but I will definitely reach out. My grandmother, whose health is poor—'Grandma, I won an award!' I will go to Busan and be sure to tell her. I will be an actor who works hard, remembering not to lose my初心. Thank you," choking up and adding to the emotion.
