However, he made an appearance at this year’s Melon Music Awards, where he won the “Stage of the Year” award for his 7th album solo concert “I Am A Dreamer.” The “Stage of the Year” award is presented to recognize the year’s best performance by artists. It was presented to Park Hyo Shin for his effort into creating the best performance for his concert, of which clips were aired before presenting him the award during the ceremony.

During his acceptance speech, Park Hyo Shin stated, “I think this is an award that has allowed me to see the path on which I have walked with you all. The ‘I Am A Dreamer’ concert was one that was supposed to be a bigger challenge than my previous concerts. I would like to thank the audience, producers, musicians, and staff that has made that challenge a success and will consider it an award that we have received together.” He concluded his speech and promised, “I know the reasons why I stand on stage and sing, and so I will work to create good albums and performances with even more responsibility.”

The singer also sang a short snippet of his song “Wild Flower” a cappella in the middle of his speech for fans who were sad that the singer did not perform during the awards ceremony. Afterwards, he also uploaded a photo on Instagram of himself gazing at his award with the caption, “I won an award…!”
