Afterward, at the awards table Kim Min-ha explained about the song, saying, "It is a story about getting up and starting again on your own even if you face failure many times. Like the lyrics of the song, I hope everyone can get up again whenever they fall."
On the opening stage, Kim Min-ha had changed so much that she was unrecognizable from a year earlier. At last year's awards she appeared wearing a black dress that covered her entire body. The neat half-up hairstyle and the dress that covered her body except for her face drew attention. At the time, she still had pale skin and chubby cheeks, unchanged Kim Min-ha.
A year later on the opening stage, Kim Min-ha wore a silver off-shoulder dress that revealed a slender silhouette. The elegant styling completed a captivating atmosphere. Kim Min-ha recently lost 17kg for a role and created a noticeably thin figure.
Above all, many people focused on Kim Min-ha's so-called "skin-and-bone" look after her transformation. In particular, when she later presented the new actor award, she gave a different impression in a white dress with see-through detailing and an updo hairstyle.
