Overcome with tears after winning the newcomer award, Lee Sung-kyoung began her remarks with "I am musical actress Lee Sung-kyoung," saying, "It is something I dreamed about for about 16 years. I love musical so much that the more I dreamed, the more I thought it was a precious position I dared not reach, so I postponed it. Through 'Aladdin' I was so fortunate to be able to stand in an undeserved position, and it was the happiest year of my life," she said.
She also expressed gratitude and added her aspirations, saying, "Thanks to the beloved 'Aladdin' team I was able to do it, and because so many people gave me love, I was able to grow quickly by feeding on that love. I want to tell the audience, fans, family and friends that I love and thank them. I will work harder and with humility to become an actor who makes you happy with good performances."
