Ji Seok-jin confesses his feelings about not winning the Entertainment Awards

Recently, a video titled 'I asked about the "Entertainment Awards...' while having a drink" was posted on the YouTube channel 'Jipyunhan World'.
In the released video, Ji Seok-jin enjoyed a year-end dinner with the production crew. He said, “Let’s talk in moderation, stop filming, and eat comfortably.”
However, the production team turned on one of Ji Seok-jin's hidden cameras and continued to ask candid questions. One of the production crew members asked, "I really have a question. Can I ask you carefully? Didn't Seokjin whisper to Jaeseok during the Entertainment Awards last week? What did you say then?"
Ji Seok-jin said, “In a whisper? And Jae-seok laughed, right?” and “I really swore,” causing laughter from those around him.
Ji Seok-jin, who unfortunately failed to win the grand prize at the SBS Entertainment Awards. He said, "Haha, I was like, 'Huh?' while filming. But honestly, I'm okay. As Jaeseok said, I think the entire Running Man received it. I think the Running Man members received it. I'm not disappointed at all."
He said, “Isn’t Jihyo sitting next to me? Jihyo kept comforting me and I was thankful.” He also said, “I went there with no expectations (of winning the grand prize), but I kept seeing kids flying away.”
A 'mocking' controversy arose over MC Tak Jae-hoon's order for Ji Suk-jin to hold up the grand prize trophy. Regarding this, he said, "Laughing when people fall and that kind of thing was an entertainment tiki-taka. The same goes for Jae-hoon. So, even though it wasn't the plan on set, the scene went in that direction. It was fun. As a result, the atmosphere was focused in that direction, so it doesn't matter. All of that. “How can you live without worrying about it?” he said, expressing his thoughts.
Lastly, "I feel more sorry for the fans, so it is more precious to me. The award is a very burdensome award. It also makes me question whether I really did that much. When I receive an award, I should be proud of myself. But if I receive the grand prize, I will be proud of myself." “It is not an honorable award,” he said.
