This is a review article written after watching the broadcast. '2025 KBS Drama Awards' actors An Jaewook and Uhm Ji-won became the co-recipients of the 2025 grand prize.
On the afternoon of the 31st, the '2025 KBS Drama Awards' was broadcast live. An Jaewook, who took the grand prize, went on stage and opened by saying, "I thought this award was not fate for me." He recalled a time when he blamed and complained about not winning major awards in the past and made a candid confession that moved the venue to solemn silence: "Last year, watching the humble remarks of the late Lee Soon-jae, I realized my vessel was too small. I felt shabby and thought I was a 'dumb actor.'" He added, "I miss one word of praise from the teacher. I will become an actor with more responsibility, equal to the weight of the trophy."
Uhm Ji-won, who shared the grand prize, also broke down in a storm of sobs, unable to overcome the lingering impression of the late Lee Soon-jae's memorial video. She wiped her tears and said, "I'm sorry; my emotions burst after watching the video," and promised, "I learned sincerity while acting with teachers in the past. Knowing the weight of the grand prize, I will grow into an actor who conveys sincerity," dedicating the honor to her parents.
The joint grand prize won by the two actors, filled more with heavy resonance than cheers of joy, was recorded as an all-time ending in which the juniors once again engraved on their hearts the sense of duty left by the departed master, the late Lee Soon-jae.
