Hwang Jung-min expressed his gratitude by saying “Just a spoon on the table” and added, “I love Kim Mi-hye,” renewing the legendary impression with tears.

[Sports Chosun Reporter Jo Ji-young] Actor Hwang Jung-min, who changed the history of award acceptance speeches, once again captivated viewers with a passionate and sentimental legendary speech.

Hwang Jung-min won the Best Actor award in the film category at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards held on the 7th. Hwang Jung-min transformed into Chief of Security Jeon Du-kwang in the movie ‘The King’s Letters’ (directed by Kim Sung-soo), released in November last year, capturing 13.12 million viewers with his intense performance, and was recognized for his acting skills with the Best Actor award at this year’s Baeksang Arts Awards.

On that day, Hwang Jung-min expressed, “It was a project that required courage from everyone. Director Kim Sung-soo kept invoking courage by saying, ‘You all have great courage, so you can work hard.’ I am very thankful. Due to the great courage of the audience who loved this movie even though it was not a good timing, it feels like I am receiving this great award. I want to share the honor of this award with all of you,” he said.

Above all, Hwang Jung-min mentioned his wife, saying, “Lastly, I want to say I love my beloved family, Sam Company’s representative, my wife, my eternal companion, and my best friend Kim Mi-hye,” mentioning his wife and expressing his profound love, bringing tears to his eyes and receiving applause from everyone.

Prior to this, in 2005, at the 26th Blue Dragon Film Awards for his debut film ‘You are my Sunshine’ (directed by Park Jin-pyo), he won the Best Actor award, saying, “I always tell people that I am just a common actor. Because there are about 60 staff and actors who prepare a wonderful table, and all I have to do is eat deliciously. But then the spotlight comes to me. I feel very sorry,” creating the ‘table remarks’.

Since then, his ‘table remarks’ have been parodied in many award ceremonies as well as various entertainment shows, and Hwang Jung-min, who is still considered a legendary line even after 19 years, once again made a mark in the history of award speeches at the Baeksang Arts Awards with his tearful lover speech towards his wife.
