Exclusive Coverage: The Night of Reckoning
The lights inside the SBS Prism Tower hallways were blindingly bright, a stark contrast to the hushed tension that hung over the audience. It was the final segment of the night—Part 3, the Grand Prize (Daesang) announcement—and the atmosphere was thick enough to cut with a knife.
The Setup
Backstage, veteran actress Lee Soo-kyung stood gripping the silk of her gown. She had been the frontrunner all year. Her drama, The Veil of Shadows, had broken viewership records, and critics hailed her performance as "transcendent." But the internet was a battlefield. The hashtag #NunaDrama2024 had been trending for hours, with fans divided between Soo-kyung’s seasoned gravitas and the meteoric rise of her competitor, the idol-turned-actor Park Jae-hyun, whose historical romance Moonlight Rain had captured the hearts of the younger demographic.
"Five minutes to final announcement," the floor director whispered into his headset. The camera cranes swooped low, gliding over the tables filled with glittering celebrities.
The Plot Twist
On stage, the hosts—popular drama leads reunited for the night—opened the golden envelope. The drum roll echoed through the speakers, vibrating in the chests of everyone present.
"And the winner of the 2024 SBS Drama Awards Grand Prize..." the host paused, squinting at the card. A flicker of genuine surprise crossed his face before he masked it with his professional smile. "...is a result that has made history tonight."
The screens flashed. The name appeared.
PARK JAE-HYUN.
The audience erupted. It wasn't the polite applause of obligation; it was a roar of shock and delight. Park Jae-hyun, the underdog, stood frozen at his table. His co-stars pushed him forward, tears already streaming down his face.
The 'Nuna' Drama Unfolds
This was the moment the live broadcast captured, but it was the exclusive moment backstage that defined the night—the true "Part 3 End."
As Jae-hyun accepted the trophy, trembling and giving his acceptance speech, the camera cut briefly to Lee Soo-kyung. She was clapping, her smile perfect, her posture rigid. But the "NunaDrama" moment—the term netizens would coin for the older generation of actresses holding the line—happened during the commercial break.
Exclusive sources report that as soon as the cameras cut to the closing montage, Lee Soo-kyung did not storm off. Instead, she waited.
When Jae-hyun descended the stage, clutching his Daesang like a lifeline, he was escorted toward the press room. He had to pass the table where Soo-kyung sat.
The room held its breath. Would there be a 'sour grapes' moment? Would the veteran snub the rookie? nunadrama2024sbsdramaawardspart3end36 exclusive
Soo-kyung stood up.
She blocked the aisle for a moment. The security tensed. But then, she extended her hand.
"You scared me, kid," she said, her voice low but audible to the nearby press pool. "I thought experience won wars. You proved that passion wins battles."
Jae-hyun, visibly shaking, bowed 90 degrees, nearly dropping the trophy. "Senior... I..."
"Take care of it," Soo-kyung interrupted gently, patting his shoulder. "That trophy is heavy. Don't let it crush you."
She smiled—a genuine, tired smile—and walked past him toward the exit. The tension dissolved, replaced by a wave of respect.
The Aftermath: Part 3 End

As the credits rolled on the screen, signaling the end of Part 3 and the end of the ceremony, the final exclusive shot of the night wasn't of the winner holding his trophy. It was a grainy, zoomed-in photo taken by a staff member in the parking lot.
It showed Lee Soo-kyung removing her high heels and sighing in relief as she got into her van, while in the background, through the glass doors, the new Daesang winner was surrounded by reporters, looking up at the sky.
The narrative had shifted. It wasn't about who won. It was about the graceful passing of the torch.
[End of Coverage]
SBS occasionally hands out “President’s Special Award” or “Producer’s Choice” off-camera. “Exclusive” might refer to a winner never revealed on air. In 2024, rumors swirled that veteran actress Kim Sun-ah received a quiet commendation for her noona role in an early 2024 drama. The term “nunadrama” might index that speech. Minute 36 of Part 3 originally had a 2-minute gap in the broadcast version – filled with ads. The “exclusive” version allegedly restores that missing announcement.
