For his first big-screen project, the 37-year-old star bagged the Best New Actor Award for his role in "The Childe."

Taking on the mysterious role of the nobleman, Kim Seon Ho won against Lee Shin Young of "Rebound," "Byeon Woo Seok for "Soulmate," Park Sung Hoon for "Hail to the Hell," and Kim Sung Cheol for "The Night Owl."

Kim Seon Ho graced the stage with a big smile on his face as he won a prestigious award.

However, as mentioned by a news portal, he garnered the attention of the audience after making a cute mistake during his acceptance speech.

Expressing his gratitude to the team behind "The Childe," the newly hailed Nest New Actor said:

"Thank you, director Park Hoon Jung, for reaching out so that I could do this movie. Thank you to all the staff, actors, and officials."

In addition, Kim Seon Ho took the opportunity to thank the viewers who watched and supported "The Childe" and delivered a special message.

"It's my first time in a movie, but everyone's hard work and passion were put in. I was happy and honored to be able to spend that time with you."

Wrapping up his acceptance speech, he made everyone laugh after mentioning "father" twice instead of thanking both by saying, "father, mother." Due to this, host Jang Do Yeon joked about the situation and said that his father would be very happy for thanking him twice.

The 59th Grand Bell Awards took place at the Gyeonggi Arts Center on November 15.

"Concrete Utopia" wins Best Movie, while lead star Lee Byung Hun bagged the Best Actor award.

As for the Best Actress recognition, "Greenhouse" star Kim Seo Hyung took home the title, while Kim Sun Young of "Concrete Utopia" was hailed as the new Best Supporting Actress.
