251222 | Lee Chanhyuk appeared on KBS 'AM Plaza' to introduce actor Kim Yoonam, who featured in his music video and performed at the Blue Dragon Film Awards
The December 29 broadcast of KBS 1TV's 'AM Plaza' featured the special year-end "2025 Hope Icon Awards" ceremony.
Here, actor Kim Yoonam shared his thoughts on appearing in AKMU Lee Chanhyuk's music video and performing on the Blue Dragon Film Awards stage.
During the broadcast, Lee Chanhyuk appeared in a VCR message, saying, "The biggest star of 2025, in my opinion, is Kim Yoonam, who appeared in my music video". He added, "Yoonam is a professional actor who can both dance and act, and who commands the stage with charisma. I'm happy to introduce him to you today. Please give him a round of applause."
After dancing to Lee Chanhyuk's 'Vivid LaLa Love', Kim Yoonam introduced himself as a 'self-proclaimed dwarf actor, known to others as a short actor'. He continued, "I've been acting in theater for 13 years now. I know using the word 'dwarf' on KBS can be a bit sensitive, but I introduce myself as such because it's the word that best describes me."
He also shared, "I inherited this talent from my mother. When I chose this career, she opposed it a lot at first, but after watching one of my performances, she praised me and gave her approval. I'm grateful to her for passing down this talent. She raised me on her own under difficult circumstances, and I'm thankful that she raised me without making life feel sad."
Regarding his appearance in the 'Vivid LaLa Love' M/V and his performance at the Blue Dragon Film Awards, Kim said, "When I got the casting call, it sounded like so much fun, so I did it. Seeing myself on camera standing at center stage, I thought to myself 'I could be a celebrity now. I've got the makings of a celebrity, I'm at a near celebrity-level.'", he joked.
He also confessed that he developed a bit of a 'celebrity syndrome' after the Blue Dragon Film Awards. Kim laughed as he said, "My face started popping up a lot on social media, so I got a little smug. I started enjoying people's attention; when people looked at me, I'd smile and say 'Yes, that's me'. I even play the music video on my phone and try to get people to recognize me."
