Actor Shin Sae-kyeong captured attention with an emotional acceptance speech after winning the best supporting actress award in the film category at the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards.
Shin Sae-kyeong won the honor at the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards with Gucci, held on the afternoon of the 8th at COEX D Hall in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, defeating strong contenders for her role in the film Humint. In this work, she portrayed Chae Seon-hwa, a North Korean restaurant worker and humint who forges her own fate amid the cold reality of Vladivostok, delivering a bold transformation.
Critics say she became a key driving force of the story, leading the narrative with solid spirit and delicate emotional modulation that did not falter even among heavyweight actors such as Zo In-sung and Park Jeongmin. Critics and audiences praised her from the time of release, calling her an actor who changes the atmosphere simply by appearing.
Gripping the trophy, Shin Sae-kyeong said she had not expected to win at all and that her mind went blank, conveying her trembling feelings. She then showed humility by crediting the Humint team and her fellow actors.
She also reflected on her long journey as an actor and expressed special thanks to her fans. Shin Sae-kyeong said she is an actor with a slow pace but has grown and lived well thanks to fans who quietly waited and cheered, and vowed, I will continue to faithfully and quietly work hard at my duties, warming the venue.
This award became a decisive indicator recognizing that Shin Sae-kyeong has built another "role of a lifetime" in her filmography. Not limited by genre or character and having honed her craft at her own pace, Shin Sae-kyeong once again cemented her presence as an actor through this award.
