The 3rd Masterpiece won Album of the Year at the 2006 Mnet KM Music Festival, while its lead single "Partner for Life" won Song of the Year at the same ceremony and Digital Daesang (Song of the Year) at the 21st Golden Disc Awards.

Music videos[edit]

Similar to what they did in their second album (the music video had two parts; the first part was with the song "Crime and Punishment" ("죄와벌"), while the second part was with the song "As We Live" ("살다가")), their third album also contained two-part music videos. The first part was with their new title song, "Partner for Life" (내 사람) starring Shinhwa's Kim Dong Wan and also featuring Jeong So-Young, and the second part was released with "Slowpoke" ("느림보").
