Actor Shin Hyun-been's dazzling accident was perfectly handled by MC You Jae-phil, whose quick thinking has been heating up online.
You Jae-phil hosted the red carpet for the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards held at COEX in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, on the 8th. Although he has proven steady hosting skills at numerous events, his crisis response shown that day has been praised as the best.
Actor Shin Hyun-been's long dress hem got caught on oversized, dizzying high heels, causing her to lose her balance and stumble. At a moment that could have led to a serious accident, You Jae-phil shouted without hesitation, "Be careful, actress!" and quickly supported her. In particular, he did not simply reach out his hand but promptly threw his body to shield her from the cameras and fans' sight, acting as a protective barrier. It was an "escort" that considered the actor, who could have been embarrassed by the sudden situation.
Shin Hyun-been grabbed You Jae-phil's arm and one hand as she got up and gave a shy smile, and You Jae-phil smoothly wrapped up the situation by adding the witty line, "Please watch as if nothing happened," so the atmosphere at the scene would not become stiff.
You Jae-phil's consideration did not end there. During the exit, when Shin Hyun-been lost her balance and sat down once more, he immediately used the script he was holding to cover the actress's face. Avoiding unnecessary physical contact while serving as support, his "manner hand" and careful gaze management were enough to elicit admiration from现场 관계자들과 internet users.
Thanks to that, despite the unexpected accident, Shin Hyun-been's appearance was seen as beautiful and lovely like the mermaid in a fairy tale. Internet users reacted, "He didn't touch the actress's body and only offered an arm as support," "His truly thoughtful consideration stands out," "As expected, a reliable veteran MC," "Baeksang's best gentleman," and other responses.
You Jae-phil debuted in 2015 as a comedian from SBS's 15th open recruitment and has built his hosting skills through various K-pop showcases, press conferences, red carpet events, and more. His characteristic wit and manners, which naturally harmonize with artists and comfortably lead the atmosphere at events, are cited as strengths.<
