On the 31st, the '2025 SBS Drama Awards' ceremony took place at the SBS Prism Tower in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. The event was hosted by broadcaster Shin Dong-yup, and actors Chae Won-bin and Heo Nam-jun.

The Best Acting Award in the Mini-Series Melodrama category was awarded to Lee Jun-hyuk and Han Ji-min for 'My Perfect Secretary.' Lee Jun-hyuk expressed his gratitude, saying, "I am thankful to the director who boldly chose a melodrama while crime and corruption genres were trending.

He added, "I believe our team received this award because we met a great team. We prepared a lot and thought a lot, and it feels rewarding that people liked it. I will continue to research and challenge unique works. I sincerely thank the viewers."

Han Ji-min shared, "I am grateful to start with such a valuable award. 'My Perfect Secretary' was a project I had many concerns about. On set, I had intense discussions with the director, staff, and actors for every scene. Thanks to that, I was able to fill in many of my shortcomings. I realized once again that a drama is completed to near perfection by working together. I want to thank Lee Jun-hyuk, my perfect secretary, who was my right arm both in the drama and on set."

She concluded, "I am able to speak while holding this award thanks to the viewers. Thank you all so much." Han Ji-min did not mention her public relationship with Choi Jung-hoon of Jannabi, who is 10 years her junior, which has been ongoing since last August.
