Kim Soo Hyun took home the top honor at the 2024 Asia Artist Awards (AAA), and his acceptance speech was especially sweet. He dedicated his Daesang award to his “Queen of Tears” co-star Kim Ji Won.

Kim Soo Hyun won four awards including Hot Trend, Fabulous Award, Best Artist, and Actor of the Year (Daesang). The 36-year-old actor was recognized for his amazing portrayal of Baek Hyun Woo in tvN’s highest-rated drama “Queen of Tears”.

He did not forget to thank his co-star Kim Ji Won, who played Hong Hae In, during the acceptance speech for Grand Prize Actor of the Year. 

Kim Soo Hyun expressed, “And lastly, to the best actress in the world who played Hong Hae In, Kim Ji Won ssi. I want to dedicate this honor/award to her.”
