Actress Park So-dam shared her feelings about the late Lee Soon-jae's first Daesang moment while he was still alive, saying, "It was heartbreaking."

The episode of KBS 2TV's "Celebrity Hospital," airing on the 12th, will focus on "Lee Soon-jae, the Eternal Active Actor." In a recording session held earlier, actors Park Hae-mi and Park So-dam participated as storytellers.

Park So-dam recalled the moment in 2025 when the late Lee Soon-jae received his first acting award in 70 years, while Park Hae-mi said, "It was unexpected to receive a Daesang for the first time, and I was so angry. Even if he didn't have many awards, it doesn't make sense that he never received a Daesang despite appearing in so many works."

Lee Chan-won explained, "This was his first official appearance after halting activities due to health issues, just three months later. At the time, his agency stated that he was undergoing rehabilitation due to weakened leg muscles."

Park So-dam, who had maintained a lifelong connection with Lee Soon-jae through the play "Grandpa Henri and Me," said, "The teacher I knew was always moving forward. Even when I asked him to go together, he would move ahead quickly. Seeing him on the award stage felt different from the teacher I knew. It was too heartbreaking and difficult. It's still hard to watch even now."

She added, "At first, I was filled with sadness as I remembered and reflected on the teacher, but after hearing various stories, I found myself reflecting on my own life and feeling the need to live even harder. I made a promise to do better and follow in the footsteps of the teacher as a junior."

Finally, Park So-dam, who was overcome with emotion, added, "I think I owe the teacher a lot."
