The actor Lee Jun Young emitted formal apologies after an unexpected error during the 4th Blue Dragon Series Awards held on July 18th in Paradise City of Incheon.
Lee Jun Young took his personal social media channel to publish: “Due to the noise at the headquarters, I looked out and made an incredible mistake. I apologize sincerely with the elderly Lee Joon Hyuk and his fans once again. Congratulations on your award.”
The confusion occurred when Lee Joon Hyuk was announced as a recipient of popularity. However, Lee Jun Young erroneously thought that his name had been called and went on stage to accept the trophy. Realizing the error almost immediately, he quickly returned the prize to the legitimate winner.
The Jun Hyun Moo host faced the situation live, saying: “Lee Jun Young is certainly also a popular star, but the best star of this year is Lee Joon Hyuk. I should have pronounced it more clearly. I remained even when I arrived Lee Jun Young: in reality it was Lee Jun Hyuk.”
The accident aroused a widespread reaction among the spectators, with many who express both understanding and fun in the unexpected live accident. To take responsibility, Lee Jun Young promptly loaded apologies during the award ceremony itself, earning praise for his sincerity.
Later in the event, the presenter Shin Dong Yup helped to defuse the voltage revealing that Lee Jun Young had personally approached Lee Joon Hyuk to apologize outside the stage, bringing a sense of closure to the situation.
While the moment could have been embarrassing, many fans have appreciated the rapid response and humility of Lee Jun Young, transforming a transmission accident into a moment of grace.
