"My wife Ye-jin, who gives me strength just by existing", "the two men I love so much, Kim Tae-pyeong and our baby Kim Woo-jin". Actors Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin became the stars of the 46th Blue Dragon Film Awards, each winning two awards as a married couple.
On the 19th, the 46th Blue Dragon Film Awards were held at KBS Hall in Yeouido, Seoul. The event featured actors Han Ji-min and Lee Je-hoon as co-MCs for the second year in a row.
In particular, the presence of the Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin couple drew attention by attending together. Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin were both nominees for best actor and best actress that day. As expected, they also closed out the red carpet together ahead of the ceremony. Hyun Bin, wearing a navy suit with a bow tie and even glasses, appeared near the end of the red carpet, and following him, Son Ye-jin closed the show in a short haircut reminiscent of a hime cut, wearing a halter-neck design with mithril embellishments and a mermaid-line sheath skirt that showed off her figure.
During the ceremony itself, shots of Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin also captured attention. Cameras caught Hyun Bin sitting beside Son Ye-jin, who was seated next to actors Lee Sung-min and Yum Hye-ran from the No Other Choice team. From other filmmakers' awards to their own awards, repeated two-shots of Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin filled the screen throughout the day.
In particular, Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin surprised by each winning two awards as a married couple. Not only did they share the Chungjungwon popularity star award, but the couple also each took home the best actor and best actress awards.
First, in the Chungjungwon popularity star category, Park Jin-Young of High Five, Hyun Bin of Harbin, Son Ye-jin of No Other Choice, and Lim Yoon-a of Pretty Crazy were selected as winners. In response, Lee Je-hoon said, "This is the first time a married couple has been captured in a two-shot on stage. They look so good together," drawing laughter and cheers.
Son Ye-jin also said, "I too don't think I will ever forget this. I'm so honored to receive a popularity award with my husband. We are so grateful to the organizers and fans for giving us an unforgettable memory," smiling brightly. She then planted herself next to Hyun Bin on the spot and showing a V sign with her fingers, displayed a natural married couple moment.
Commenting on winning together as a couple, Hyun Bin said, "It feels like we won these awards as a result of the drama Crash Landing on You. Since then we've stood on stage together holding awards, and today I'm also so happy. Thank you," smiling brightly. Lee Je-hoon added jokingly, "So will you have two trophies lined up side by side at home? I'm so jealous," drawing more laughter.
After receiving the best actor award for Harbin, Hyun Bin said toward Son Ye-jin in the audience, "Ye-jin, you give me strength just by existing. I want to tell you that I love and thank you and our son so much," He then said. At that moment, Son Ye-jin, caught by the camera, made a finger heart, adding to the warmth.
Following Hyun Bin, Son Ye-jin also won best actress for No Other Choice. Having won her first best actress award at the 29th Blue Dragon Film Awards for A Wife Has Married, this was her second trophy. Immediately after the announcement, Hyun Bin stood up, warmly embraced Son Ye-jin and patted her back, adding to the warmth.
Moreover, No Other Choice was Son Ye-jin's return to the screen seven years after The Last Princess, a film she chose after marrying Hyun Bin and giving birth to their son. In her acceptance speech, Son Ye-jin said, "After getting married and becoming a mother, I feel many different emotions and see the world differently. I want to be a good adult. I want to continue to grow and remain a good actor by your side," and added, "I will share this award's joy with the two men I love so much, Kim Tae-pyeong and our baby Kim Woo-jin," adding to the warmth.
