Forever High Eun-seon

  MBC Drama Awards is similar to MBC Entertainment Awards, but the award recipients are all TV dramas that aired on MBC and actors who appeared in them.

  Compared to yesterday's "Infinite Challenge", Yoon Hyun had less confidence in tonight's "Coffee Prince 1st Shop".

  Because shortly after "The 1st Shop of Coffee Prince" ended, MBC aired a well-made historical drama.

  The male lead of this drama called "Taewangsasingi" is Bae Yong-joon.

  Well, with this name, Yin Xian didn't have any thoughts about tonight's award.

  But for her partner, her first kiss... Ah... Yoon Eun-hye, tonight is worth expecting more. Because in "Coffee Prince", Yoon Eun-hye's performance was indeed excellent.

  After more than two hours of preparation, Yoon Hyun finally got ready to step on the red carpet for the first time as an actor.

  This is still different from the red carpet of variety shows and songs. In Korea's entertainment circle, actors' status is far higher than the previous two, and they are also more sought after.

  "Yin Xian, long time no see!" In the parked minivan, Yin Xian met Yin Eun-hye, whom he hadn't seen in several months.

  "Long time no see, Eun Hye sister!" Yun Hyun saw Yun Eun Hye and suddenly remembered that last scene, his face slightly red, and he unconsciously used honorifics.

  When that scene was broadcast on TV, Yoon Hyun didn't dare to watch it, but he still knew that at that moment the ratings almost reached 50%... If not for this one moment's ratings, facing "The Legend" with Bae Yong-joon and Moon Soo-ri, he and Yoon Eun-hye would have nothing to expect...

  "Hey, why be so polite with me!" Yoon Eun-hye probably felt the atmosphere was a bit strange and opened her mouth voluntarily.

  "What have you been busy with lately, En Hui?" Yoon Hyun also returned to the normal attitude of chatting with friends.

  "What else can I be busy with, filming commercials, looking for scripts. I'm not as lucky as you, finishing a TV drama and then having a movie script." Yoon Eun-hye said, showing envy.

  "It's actually better to take a break and settle down. It's just that I'm being pressured by my agency. Sigh, I'm even envious of you." Yoon Hyun said, intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Kim Soo-hyun, who was quietly chatting with Yoon Eun-hye's agency on the side.

  "I don't know when I'll have the chance to play a heroine in a movie..." Yoon Eun-hye's mood was a bit down.

  "What's the big deal about acting? It's just a matter of time. I think, Eun Hye sister, you should just become a director and make your own movies in the future!" Yun Hyun gives Yun Eun Hye encouragement.

  "Director? I really haven't thought about it. Unlike you, when filming a TV series, always following the scene recorder, one look is enough to see that there's ambition to be a director." Yoon Eun-hye said with a smile.

  "Then I'll be the director in the future, and please come to play the heroine!" Yoon Hyun didn't mind acting like a kid in front of Yoon Eun Hye, which might help to ease the awkwardness.

  The two of them chatted for a while before the PD in charge of organizing announced that it was almost time to enter, and the van they were riding in drove up to the end of the red carpet.

  When Yun Eun-hye, dressed in a burgundy evening gown, and Yoon Hyun, wearing a tailored suit, stepped onto the red carpet together, the entire scene erupted into loud cheers.

  Many girls were shouting loudly "Ko Eun-chan".

  "See? You're much more popular than I am." Yoon Hyun smiled and whispered in Yoon Eun Hye's ear.

  Yoon Eun-hye also smiled happily when she heard Yoon Hyun's words.

  The small moment between the two people was naturally captured by a photographer on the side.

  And this action naturally also triggered the cheers of the fans of "Coffee Prince 1st Shop" on the scene.

  Two people entered the venue and found a table belonging to the crew, so they sat down. They also greeted Lee Sun-kyun and Chae Soo-bin, who had arrived earlier. Since the crew disbanded, several people hadn't seen each other again, so they chatted about their recent situation.

  After a while, Ham Eunjung also came with Kim Dong-hyuk and others.

  "Ah, Eun-jeong, it's been a while." Yeon-hyeon also greeted Eun-jeong. Since Yeon-hyeon debuted, he had less contact with the girls he originally knew at CCM.

  "Yoon Hyun oppa, long time no see." It's been a really long time since we last contacted each other. Plus, tonight Cham Eun-jung is also dressed up to the nines, so it can't be helped that she's being a bit formal. She just smiled and greeted Yoon Hyun without being as casual as before.

  Then, a thunderous applause erupted from outside the hall.

  "Bae Yong-joon is here!" Even Yun Eun-hye's eyes sparkled.

  Yoon Hyun suddenly felt a bit depressed.

  Bae Yong-joon and Moon So-ri took the stage soon after, and the Best Acting Award ceremony officially began.

  As the main contenders for today's big prize, "Coffee Prince 1st Shop" and "The Legend of the Four Gods" as well as another one "Yi San" all showed a more powerful presence than other dramas.

  Yoon Hyun also knew about "Lee San" because before Infinite Challenge, they filmed a special episode going to the filming site of "Lee San" for a historical drama experience...

  The awards were announced one by one. Generally speaking, "Jia" and "Tai" are on par with each other, while "Li" is slightly lagging behind.

  It's time for tonight's first major highlight, the Best Newcomer award.

  In the drama "Coffee", Yoon Hyun entered the best new male actor, and Ham Eunjung was fortunately shortlisted for the best new female actor.

  As a result, the Best New Actress award was won by Lee Ji-ah from "The Heir" and another newcomer named Lee Ha-na. Ham Eun-jung still politely applauded to congratulate them, but her eyes couldn't hide her deep disappointment.

  Yoon Hyun saw Ham Eunjung's expression and gently hugged her, patting her shoulder comfortingly and whispering a few words of consolation in her ear.

  Most people in the crew knew that Ham Eunjung was brought into the crew by Yoon Hyun, so seeing Yoon Hyun comforting the disheartened Ham Eunjung didn't seem out of place.

  The next best new male artist, "Coffee" finally got a chance to catch his breath, Yoon Hyun and another actor won the award.

  During the acceptance speech, Yoon Hyun said: "Thank you to MBC for this award and recognition. The person I most want to share this Best New Actor award with is Ham Eunjung xi, who entered the drama team with me. As newcomers, we worked hard together, and a part of this award's recognition belongs to you!"

  And Hae-in, who was stunned below, naturally didn't expect Yoon Hyun to say that and was also deeply moved.

  Then the awards ceremony started to get heavier, and after various consolation prizes called Golden Acting Awards were given out, the popular actor's award was also taken away by Bae Yong-joon and Lee Ji-ah from "Ta". This made the director of "Coffee", Lee Yoon-jung, look a bit unhappy. In fact, in terms of ratings, "Coffee" didn't lose to "Ta" thanks to Yun Hyeon's help...

  Then came the last one of the popularity award and the last hot scene before the real actor award, Best Couple Award.

  The biggest hotspots of competition are naturally the two pairs from "Tai" and "Ka" dramas.

  Although Yoon Eun-hye was still nervous and grabbed Yoon Hyun's hand, she also knew that the popular actor and actress were opponents, and she and Yoon Hyun basically had no hope. But this is her second hopeful award tonight, and in her subconscious mind, from the last shot of "Coffee", Yoon Hyun has formed a trustworthy and reliable image in her subconscious mind.

  The presenter smiled as he opened the envelope, then looked somewhat surprised and covered his mouth.

  "Although it's a bit unexpected, but still well-deserved, congratulations, Yoon Eun Hye, Yoon Hyun! 'Coffee Prince 1st Shop'!"

  Yoon Hyun and Yoon Eun Hye were stunned for a moment, but the other actors around them all got excited and stood up to applaud in celebration.

  "Did we really win?" Yun Eun-hye still couldn't quite believe it.

  "Let's go get the award!" Yoon Hyun smiled and pulled Yoon Eun Hye to run towards the stage.

  Not a bit of the solemnity that should have been present at an awards ceremony. Moreover, Yun Eun-hye, who was being dragged along in high heels, looked a bit disheveled. But the joyful atmosphere made everyone on the scene burst out laughing. Isn't this Ko Eun-chan and Choi Han-kyul?

  "Thank you everyone! I really didn't think we'd have the chance to receive this award. Senior Bae Yong-joon and Lee Ji-ah's performances were also great... I'm really surprised, thank you!" Yoon Eun-hye was a bit flustered due to her excitement.

  "I'm even more surprised." On the other hand, Yoon Hyun saw that Yoon Eun Hye's emotions were too agitated and timely took over the conversation, "The fact is proven, finding a good woman is really important. Eun Chae, it's a good thing you're not a man!"

  The two of them stepped down from the stage amidst applause from the audience.

  Now it's time for tonight's main event.

  The Grand Prize for Acting was originally an awards ceremony to divide the cake, so many award categories were designed. Like the Entertainment Awards, the same male and female actor awards were divided into Excellent Actor/Actress, Best Actor/Actress, and the Grand Prize above them.

  Yoon Hyun entered as an excellent male actor. Yoon Eun-hye was shortlisted for Best Actress.

  This means that the Daesang has nothing to do with them. Looking at Bae Yong-joon not being nominated for the two actor categories, it's clear who the Daesang is going to be...

  Compared to Yoon Hyun, Yoon Eun Hye is actually more tense.

  Thanks to Yoon Hyun's performance in "Coffee", although the Best Actor award is not very hopeful, but the Excellent Actor award should be no problem.

  But for Yoon Eun-hye, who won the Best New Actress award last year with "Princess Hours", this Best Actress award is much more meaningful.

  So when Yoon Hyun took the Best New Actor award on stage, he wasn't too excited: "Thank you MBC for giving me this newcomer so much affirmation, I'm really grateful. For this award, I want to say: Eun-chae, no, Eun-hye! Without you, I wouldn't have gotten this award! Fighting! You're the best!"

  After refueling Yoon Eun-hye, Yoon Hyun left the stage.

  "Thank you!" The already tense Yun Eun-hye gave Yun Hyun a tight hug.

  Next is the award for Best Actress.

  "Yoon Eun-hye in 'Coffee Prince', Gong Hyo-jin in 'Thank You'" As the presenter announced, Yoon Eun-hye, who had been tightly gripping Yoon Hyun's hand with tension, seemed to have all her energy drained away.

  Then, in her acceptance speech, Yoon Eun-hye cried uncontrollably.

  Yoon Hyun was lightly applauding. As someone who had been smooth sailing since debut, it's hard to understand that from the beginning of Baby V.O.X's debut, she had been surrounded by controversy, and then slowly gained recognition from the audience with her "girl warrior" image in the variety show "X-Man", and although she won the Best New Actress award for her role as the female lead in the hit drama "Palace", she was still seen as an unsuccessful singer.

  Until this moment, she finally completed her magnificent transformation from an unsuccessful singer to a successful actor.

  It's been 8 years since this turn.

  Amidst the applause of the whole audience, Yoon Eun-hye finally slowly wiped away her tears and began to thank one by one the people she wanted to thank.

  "Lastly, I want to thank Yoon Hyun-ji. Although it was mostly me taking care of you throughout the filming process, thanks for helping me regain my little girl feel in the last scene. Thank you, I will forever be your Ko Eun-chan."

  Yoon Eun-hye's natural thanks led the camera to Yoon Hyun.

  Yoon Hyun also thought of this, suppressing the awkwardness and intense heartbeat in his heart, and hung a sincere smile on his face, shouting loudly: "I will always be your Choi Han-jeong!"

  As the episode passed, "Coffee Prince 1st Shop" truly came to an end. As for Yoon Eun, after Bae Yong-joon later got the big prize, he didn't pay attention to what he said anymore.

  Because he had been taking care of Yoon Eun Hye who was calm but still tearful beside him.

  The next day, "Yoon Hyun Yoon Eun Hye" became the top search on Naver. Then, whenever Yoon Eun Hye enters the public eye, Kim Jong Kook, the other main character of "Running Man", is also mentioned. Unfortunately, although his father used the relevant policies of the personnel clause to reduce his service period to 18 months, he is still serving and will not be back until March next year...

  Then in the eyes of many idle and bored netizens, Yoon Hyun became that bad person who secretly dug a hole in the wall to destroy the family during the male protagonist's military service... Then various CP articles and the return of the male protagonist as a sequel to "Coffee Prince 1" were born from the pens of these netizens with big brain holes.

  Although Yoon Hyun and Yoon Eun Hye also apologized to each other over the phone after the incident, it seems like there's still something left between them.

  Time has quietly slipped into 2008.

  The aftermath of this incident had not yet passed when Yoon Hyun was severely beaten by Liu Zai Shi during the filming of "Infinite Challenge".

  "Yoon Hyun-ah! I heard you and Eun Hye are together?" Liu Jae-seok looked at Yoon Hyun with an inquiring expression.

  "Yoon Hyun-ah, although you are my close younger brother, Kim Jong-kook is my older brother. I absolutely won't take your side if you do this!" Haha, who has already confirmed to enlist in March, was also a fixed member of X-Man and naturally very familiar with Kim Jong-kook.

  "Moreover, Jung Yonghwa is retiring in March this year. At that time, we will do a special feature called: Brain vs Muscle! Who is the man worthy of Yoon Eunhye?! What do you think? Park Myungsoo's love life seems to be on track lately and he looks brighter too."

  Yoon Hyun immediately reacted excitedly and covered Park Myung-soo's mouth, saying: "Ah, Myung-soo hyung, be careful what you say! Be careful!"

  This is also a tradition in "Infinite Challenge". Because of their careless talk, they experienced overseas travel - Japan special, dance - national standard dance special... and so on. If the original group of comedians used to speak without thinking, now this group has developed the habit of thinking before speaking.

  "I think this special feature will be quite interesting, PD Kim Tae-ho. You can consider it. I'll go back and inform Jang Guk later, he'll definitely come for the sake of his own benefit!" Liu Zai Shi said to the PD with a confident tone.

  Yoon Hyun feels like he's living a stifling life.

  As a result, when this episode was broadcast at the end of January, it sparked a voting frenzy online to choose the man who is worthy of Yoon Eun-hye...

  Entering late January, a previously left work began to get on track: promoting the movie "Tracker".

  I don't know what kind of stimulation the director received during editing, gained so much confidence, and then passed this confidence on to investors. As a film that didn't actually invest too much money in shooting, it can be called generous in its promotion period.

  Due to excessive gloom and gore in its plot, this film was restricted to 19+.
