On December 20, 2025 (KST), at the “2025 KBS Entertainment Awards,” TV star Joo Woo Jae left the audience stunned speechless with a surprise acceptance speech that soon turned out to be a plot twist!

While accepting the “Excellence Award” in the “Show and Variety” category for Problem Child In House, Joo Woo Jae thanked the production staff, his fellow co-stars, and family members in his speech.

Thank you for giving me such an honorable award once again. I love all the production staff and cast of Problem Child In House, but today I want to share this moment with Se Chan, who is really pushing hard through the program. This is for us.

— Joo Woo Jae

Then, facing the unsuspecting audience, Joo Woo Jae said, “Arin, I love you so much.”

Dear family, I love you all and Arin! I love you so much!

— Joo Woo Jae

For a second, the audience fell silent—confused by the TV star’s sudden confession of love. Joo Woo Jae was quick to turn things around, though:

Joo Woo Jae: Arin is my niece.

Host: Oh, that scared us for a second!

The TV star also didn’t forget to squeeze in his dog, Dro, in his cheeky acceptance speech.

Dro, let’s stay healthy. FYI, Dro is my dog. Thank you!
