Their chemistry was evident during red carpet interviews, where Jun Hyun-moo humorously attributed their long-standing collaboration to Yoona's ability to cover his mistakes, calling her a "very reliable senior MC." Yoona reciprocated the praise, stating that having Jun Hyun-moo by her side provides a sense of security, which she believes naturally transfers to the audience.

Jun Hyun-moo's considerate actions on the red carpet also drew particular attention. Recognizing that photographers often prioritize individual shots of Yoona, he was observed stepping aside to "give the main stage to Yoona," earning him praise for prioritizing the "Blue Dragon's hostess."

Because senior Jun Hyun-moo is by my side, I can host every time with peace of mind. This sense of security will naturally be conveyed to the็Žฐๅœบ and the audience.

Beyond their on-stage dynamic, the hosts reportedly prepared diligently for the event. Despite packed schedules, they made an effort to watch the nominated works after the shortlist was announced. Their hosting style is described as a balanced blend, with Jun Hyun-moo managing the event's rhythm and injecting humor, while Yoona brings elegance and warmth. They are commended not only for congratulating winners but also for acknowledging nominees who did not receive an award, showcasing a comprehensive and thoughtful approach to hosting.

Everyone wants 'Yoona's solo photo' the most every year, so I automatically step back and leave the main stage to the 'Blue Dragon's hostess'.
