Two South Korean actors, Lee Jun Hyuk and Lee Jun Young, became the public spotlight after sharing a warm and entertaining interaction at the 2025 Blue Dragon Series Awards. The unexpected incident between the two provoked laughter and sympathy from netizens and fans.
A hilarious moment occurred when Lee Jun Hyuk was announced as one of the winners of the Upbeat Popular Star Award at the 2025 Blue Dragon Series Awards on Friday July 18, 2025. The award was also given to Hyeri, IU, and Park Bo Gum.
However, when host Jun Hyun Moo called Lee Jun Hyuk's name, Lee Jun Young jumped on stage, thinking his name was being called. Meanwhile, Lee Jun Hyuk didn't expect his name to be announced as the winner of the Upbeat Popular Star Award.
The star of the Korean drama "Mercy for None" appeared surprised and only rose from his seat when those around him confirmed that he was the winner. As he was about to go on stage, Lee Jun Hyuk decided to return to his seat after seeing that Lee Jun Young had already received his trophy.
Meanwhile, IU, who was also announced as the winner of the Upbeat Popular Star Award, watched the situation awkwardly in front of the stage. Finally, host Jun Hyun Moo repeated Lee Jun Hyuk's name, prompting Lee Jun Young to rush down to find the actor. IU even made sure Lee Jun Young didn't fall down the stairs.
In response, Lee Jun Hyuk hugged his colleague, who presented him with the Upbeat Popular Star Award, looking down in embarrassment. The moment, which occurred at the 2025 Blue Dragon Series Awards, immediately became a hot topic on social media.
Many netizens laughed at the incident, but others felt sympathy for Lee Jun Young. The incident became the subject of a joke by comedian Shin Dong Yup while reading out the nominations. Responding to this incident, Lee Jun Young apologized to Lee Jun Hyuk and the actor's fans via Instagram Story.
"Because my hearing was not good at the venue, I made a very silly mistake. I would like to once again apologize to Lee Jun Hyuk and all Lee Jun Hyuk fans. I sincerely congratulate you on the award you received!" Rather than embarrassing his colleague, Lee Jun Hyuk responded with an understanding message.
He recalled a similar incident at the 2023 Asia Artist Awards, when he nearly went on stage to accept the Lee Jun Young award. "Jun Young, thanks to you, we're all entertained. Don't worry too much, I made the same mistake at AAA, remember? Let's eat together sometime" Lee Jun Hyuk exclaimed.
