Kim Min Ha opened the 5th Blue Dragon Series Awards with a powerful performance that quickly gained attention from the hosts and guests.
During the ceremony broadcast on KBS2 on July 31, the actress performed That’s Life as the first singer of the night. She impressed viewers with her strong vocals, expressive performance, and confident stage presence.
Kim Min Ha recently revealed that she lost 17 kilograms for an acting project. She appeared in an off shoulder dress that highlighted her slimmer appearance while delivering a performance inspired by a classic jazz bar atmosphere.
After the stage, host Jun Hyun Moo praised her performance and said, “The celebration stage has reached another level. It felt like we met musician Kim Min Ha instead of actress Kim Min Ha. It felt like being inside a jazz bar.”
Co-host YoonA also noted that Kim Min Ha, who won a rookie award at the previous ceremony, had returned to open this year’s event.
She jokingly said, “Those who win tonight should start preparing to perform at next year’s opening stage.”
Kim Min Ha later returned as an award presenter and admitted that the performance had made her especially nervous.
She said, “I was more nervous about today’s stage than any filming set I have worked on.”
Na Sang Hyun, who appeared beside her as a presenter, responded with the casual compliment, “I was impressed.”
Kim Min Ha shyly replied, “Thank you,” creating a warm moment between the two presenters.
