Actors Lee Seung-min, Shin Se-kyung, Yoo Seung-mok, and Im Soo-jung won awards at the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards.

The 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards were held on the afternoon of the 8th at COEX in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The ceremony was hosted by broadcaster Shin Dong-yup, actor Park Bo-gum, and singer-actress Suzy.

On this day, the Best Supporting Actor award went to Lee Seung-min for the film "There's No Way Out," Shin Se-kyung for "Humanist," Yoo Seung-mok for the JTBC drama "The Story of Department Manager Kim, Who Works at a Large Company in Seoul," and Im Soo-jung for Disney+'s "Finn: The Country Bumpkins."

Lee Seung-min said, "I even scolded Yum Hye-ran, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, for not winning the award. I had many new experiences meeting Director Park Chan-wook. I highly recommend everyone here to work with Director Park."

Shin Se-kyung said, "I am grateful to my family, friends, and company colleagues who allowed me to work as a fairly healthy person over this not-so-short period. Although I am an actor with a slow pace, I am thankful to the fans who waited for me silently."

Yoo Seung-mok, looking at Ryu Seung-ryong, with whom he shared scenes in the drama, teased, "Nak-su, what is this?" before adding, "This is the first time I have ever been nominated for any award at any ceremony. Thank you for giving me such a precious award. I wanted to show a human side, not just a simple villain. I am grateful to those who made this good work possible," and choked up.

Im Soo-jung, who took the stage in a dapper tuxedo, said, "It was a new challenge. I am grateful to the director who encouraged me to have courage in that challenge. All the actors delivered shining performances."

She continued, "Personally, coming to this stage was not easy. My mother passed away and became a star in the sky about four months ago. As time passed, many words I couldn't gently convey due to being busy remained in my heart, and my sorrow deepened. I spent days as if the world had stopped. Receiving this award feels like my mother is saying, 'Don't do that. Move forward.' I am grateful to everyone," as she recalled her late mother and began to sob.
