Brad Pitt shared a special moment with South Korean film veteran, Yuh-Jung Youn. The actor stepped onstage at the 93rd Academy Awards on Sunday to present the award for Best Supporting Actress, which went to Youn for her role in Minari.

The actor, who rocked a ponytail, looked dashing in a classic suit and bow tie from Brioni and jewelry from David Yurman. Youn seemed to think so, too, as the acclaimed actress was starstruck by Pitt upon receiving the Oscar.

“Mr. Brad Pitt … finally. Nice to meet you,” she said, prompting the audience to laugh. Pitt smiled and later helped her off the stage.

The 73-year-old actress also thanked her Minari family in her memorable acceptance speech.

“Lee Isaac Chung, without him I wouldn’t be here tonight. He was my captain and my director,” Youn said.

Pitt is actually a producer on Minari, and backstage, Youn was asked what genre of film she’d pick to work with Pitt on next — with him as her possible co-star.

“No, that would never happen with my English and the age, no I don’t think so. So I don’t dream impossible dream, so no,” she said with a laugh. “No answer.”

Youn could tell that Pitt “practiced a lot” before announcing her name. “He didn’t mispronounce my name,” she marveled. “Then the moment that I got there I just lost what I was supposed to say.”
