“I’m more flustered than happy. This was my first project since returning from military service, and I missed the filming set so much. I’ve spent countless hours in the military and missed this scene so much; I’m taken aback to receive such a meaningful award.
I put a lot of thought into my acting, but when I look around me, I see many people who work harder than I do, and many who are more talented. It makes me wonder why I am here holding this award.
No one knows how long I’ll be in this profession, but I don’t want to be replaced until the day I retire. I will continue to study, think, and act more ardently.”
— Seo Kang Joon

- “Replaced? Kang Joon, please do more projects!”
- “There’s no one who can replace him!”
- “His acting is good, but his face is irreplaceable.”
- “There’s no one who can replace his visuals.”
- “There isn’t anyone who has visuals, physique, and acting as he does.”
- “He is irreplaceable…I really hope he finds a project that suits him really well.”
- “He’s handsome and is a good actor and is even tall…I didn’t think he’d be that tall!”
