While accepting the award, Lee Kwang Soo mentioned receiving a rather ominous phone call from his K-Pop idol friend, EXO‘s D.O. Over the phone, D.O. shared the most unexpected details of the nightmare that shook him overnight:

This morning, D.O. said he had a dream where I died after getting an infection while receiving a hair transplant…

As the audience burst into laughter, Lee Kwang Soo admitted that, while he “cursed [D.O.] out” before hanging up on him, the dream seemed auspicious, bringing him fortune!

…but on my way here, I looked it up and apparently it’s a ‘lucky’ dream. So, thank you, D.O. I guess.

The clip of Lee Kwang Soo’s acceptance speech, thanking his bestie for the brutally lucky dream, has since gained 1.6M views on X (Twitter) and counting. Viewers found all aspects of the clip to be pure comedy—including the fact that the camera kept closing in on Lee Kwang Soo’s Karma co-star Park Hae Soo, well-known for his hair transplant transformation.
