Actress Moon Geunyoung shared her honest feelings as she looked back on winning the Daesang at a young age.
On the episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' that aired on the 22nd, the 'Nation's Little Sister' Moon Geunyoung appeared as a guest.
On this day, Moon Geunyoung first talked about her grandmother, who had been with her during her early career. She said, "In my early debut days, my grandmother acted as my manager and emotional support," and added, "However, as she got close to 70, it became harder for her to keep up with my schedule. Eventually, it was no longer possible for her to accompany me."
When Yoo Jaesuk mentioned, "Didn't you win the Daesang at the age of 21?" Moon Geunyoung confessed, "Looking back now, I don't think I was able to fully enjoy that moment." She continued, "At the time, I kept thinking, 'Do I really deserve this? I don't think this award suits me.' It's a shame I couldn't have been more confident and enjoyed it."
In fact, she said in her acceptance speech back then, "More than grateful, I actually feel more apologetic." Regarding this, she expressed, "If there's something I could say to my younger self, I'd want to say, 'It's okay to be a bit immature. It's okay to make as many mistakes as you want."
She added, "There was an incident that made me realize that I needed to experience making mistakes when I was young. I made a very small mistake, but I suddenly burst into tears," and explained, "I wondered why I was crying. It was because I wasn't used to making mistakes. Even after turning 30, I hadn't learned how to cope with mistakes. I wish I had more mistakes, faced challenges, and tried more things when I was younger."
Meanwhile, when Yoo Jaesuk asked, "If you were to be asked, 'How are you these days? You're really popular. How does it feel?' How would yo respond?" Moon Geunyoung replied, "Yes, you're right. I'm doing great these days. I'm the 'Nation's Little Sister' from 'My Little Bride,'" drawing laughter.
