Kwang Soo shared that as he watched his video while accepting the award, he became emotional stepping up to claim the ward, but Lee Kwang Soo noted that he was able to handle the trophy well.
The actor expressed that he got some realistic advice from Yoo Jae Suk during the ceremony, saying that he should be careful because the award could still become controversial, and thanking Kwang Soo for mentioning his drama.
Lee Kwang Soo admitted that he was a bit disappointed that though many people liked their film, others still could not watch it. Some senior actors told him that they hadn't watched the movie yet, but they'll find time to view it.
In the interview, Lee Kwang Soo was asked if the comment of Yoo Jae Suk in the awarding had been a joke, and Lee Kwang Soo replied with a laugh that it was half joke and half sincere. Because of social distancing, they were all sitting apart, but Yoo Jae Suk was still seated next to him.
Lee Kwang Soo continued that when his name was called, he looked over Yoo Jae Suk, and he was not looking at him. He expressed that Yoo Jae Suk probably did that because of social distancing.
Furthermore, the interviewer asked Lee Kwang Soo if that was why he did not react so much when Yoo Jae Suk received his award that night. He said with a laugh that it wasn't the real situation. He explained that during the break after the first part of the ceremony, Yoo Jae Suk hugged him.
The actor expressed that it feels awkward for them to be saying "Congratulations" to each other that's why they did not say anything more. "I was happy getting an award along with Yoo Jae Suk."
Running Man
When Lee Kwang Soo was asked if he's friends with his co-stars of the upcoming film 'The Pirates 2,' he said that since he's been doing 'Running Man' for ten years, he already met many people who appeared on their show.
Lee Kwang Soo expressed that not mentioning 'Running Man' in interviews, is impossible for him to do. And when asked if how long he would want to stay on 'Running Man,' he replied with a laugh that he'd keep on doing it until it got canceled. He noted, "I think that I am who I am today because of 'Running Man.' I love it."
