Singer Lee Jae-jae's "True Korean Moment," who held the Oscar in his arms with Netflix's "K-Pop Demon Hunters," is drawing attention again.

Composer and singer Lee Jae revealed his daily life of eating rice soup with the 98th Academy Awards (Oscar) trophy.

On the 17th, Lee Jae released a picture of her hugging Audrey and Ray Ami, who sang "Golden," the OST of Netflix's "K-pop Demon Hunters," along with "I love you all so much."

Lee Jae also released a photo of Lee Jae, who certified the Academy Awards trophy, eating rice soup with heart emoticons.

"K-Pop Demon Hunters" was honored with a feature-length animation and theme song award at the 98th Academy Awards held on the 15th (local time). Lee Jae took the stage with Mark Sonnenblik, Kwak Jung-kyu, Lee Yoo-han, Nam Hee-dong, and Seo Jeong-hoon, the composers of "Golden," and said, "When I was young, I was teased for liking K-pop, but now everyone is singing our songs with Korean lyrics. I think this award is not about success but about undaunted power. Thank you so much," he said, showing tears.

In addition, the "Golden" stage, held at the awards ceremony by Lee Jae, Audrey, and Ray Amie, began with performances by underworld lions that reminded people of a scene in the movie, followed by dance performances by dancers wearing traditional Korean instruments, pansori, and hanbok, and colored the Academy Awards site with the splendor of Korean culture.

Since then, Lee Jae said in a backstage interview, "It's really amazing to be on this stage as a Korean-American woman and to experience our culture and tradition like this. Korean traditional music came out at the beginning of the performance, which I am especially proud of. As a Korean-American raised in the United States, when he was young, he wanted to hide his image as a Korean because he was afraid of being bullied by food or culture. But now, I'm really proud of my Korean identity. While rehearsing, I was able to truly communicate with our roots, and I'm just so grateful."

Meanwhile, Lee Jae-jae wore a custom dress exclusively made by a Korean designer brand, and thick gold-bronze decorations attached to the front and sleeves of both arms are known to be direct images of ancient Korean gold crowns.

The costume production company said, "The costumes made for the Oscars began in the royal robes of the Korean Empire," adding, "It is another story that connects her uniform at Huntrix and an attempt to visually unravel the 'shining moment' that 'Golden' refers to." The gold embroidery is said to represent eternity, persistence, and life that does not disappear, borrowing the Mugunghwa pattern applied to the Korean Empire official and independence activist Kim Ga-jin's dress in 1905.
