Lee Hwi Jae was the winner of the Daesang at the '2015 KBS Entertainment Awards', but his acceptance speech has caught more attention than his actual award.

During his speech, he said, "I know I'm getting this award as the representative of 'Superman is Back'. When I heard my name, I knew I shouldn't look at the comments for about a month." He added, "I'm sorry. When I [looked at the nominees list], the competition was intense. I knew from 10 years ago that I couldn't get the Daesang with my experience. This is all thanks to my children. I don't know how long I'll last, but I'll work hard. And I'll work to become a father who his children can be proud of."

However, despite his worries, netizens were more than supportive! Top comments read, "Lee Hwi Jae really didn't have a luck for awards in his career. I was kind of sad that he got the award and the first thing he thought of were hate comments. I think all the other nominees thought he deserved it, too. Lee Hwi Jae, you got the award because you deserved it, so don't feel too bad...", "Sincerely congratulations!", and "Don't worry about the comments! You deserve it". One even lashed out at the hate comments, writing, "Does everyone have twisted lives? Kekekekeke. Talk about low class. Lee Hwi Jae, you've worked hard. Thanks for introducing us to Seo Uhn and Seo Jun!".

Congratulations once again to Lee Hwi Jae - it looks like he can also read comments with his heart at ease!
