Comedian Kim Shin-young has won the Best Supporting Actress Award for her performance in director Park Chan-wook's "Decision to Leave" at the ninth Korean Film Producers Association (KFPA) Awards held in Seoul, Wednesday.

Her very first film appearance, playing the role of a detective alongside Park Hae-il in "Decision to Leave," earned her the trophy, with the film itself also winning Best Picture and Best Screenplay. The film tells the story of a detective (Park) who suspects a mysterious Chinese widow is the culprit of a murder case and later falls in love with her.

"Thank you for the honorary award. I also want to thank our wonderful 'Decision to Leave' team and the audience who watched and supported our film," Kim wrote on Instagram, Wednesday.

Earlier in May, director Park praised Kim's acting in an interview, saying that he thinks Kim is a born genius. Kim was also nominated for the Best New Female Actor award at the Blue Dragon Film Awards but fell short to Kim Hye-yoon, who snatched the prize for her role in "The Girl on a Bulldozer."

The year 2022 was memorable for Kim. In October, She was named the new host of Korea's beloved weekly singing show, "National Singing Contest," on KBS, succeeding the late veteran emcee, Song Hae.

Debuting as a comedian in 2003, Kim, 39, has appeared in numerous comedy and entertainment shows. She has hosted MBC's radio program, "Noon Song of Hope," every day since 2012 and formed K-pop girl group Celeb Five, comprised of four veteran comedians ― Kim, Song Eun-yi, Ahn Young-mi and Shin Bong-sun.

At the KFPA Awards, actor Lee Jung-jae was named Best Director for his directorial debut feature, "Hunt," an action-packed film that centers on two rival intelligence agents who are tasked with uncovering a North Korean spy. The film also won Best Production Design, Best Film Editing and Best Cinematography.

Best Actor and Actress awards went to Ma Dong-seok of "The Roundup" and Tang Wei of "Decision to Leave," respectively, the association said.
