However, the real heart-fluttering moment came when Jeon was announced as the winner of the Best New Actress award for her portrayal of Se Ah in If Wishes Could Kill. The actress appeared visibly moved in the moment, reaching out to her co-stars from The Legend of Kitchen Soldier for support, while Baek Sun Ho clapped for her happily.
