[TRANS] 121216 Second Place Becomes First Place? The Validity Of The ’2012 Melon Music Awards’ Is Questioned

The ‘Netizen Popularity Award’ recipients were not chosen by the netizens, 140,000 is greater than 180,000?

The validity of the ’2012 Melon Music Awards’, which was held on the 14th at the Seoul Olympic Park Gymnasium, is now being questioned.

The focal point of the controversy is the ‘Netizen Popularity Award’. The award was given to the group that received the second highest number of votes, rather than the singer who won the most votes from netizens.

In the voting procedure that took place between the 29th of November till the 13th of December, Kim Junsu topped the polls for his ‘Nice Guy’ OST ‘Love is Like a Snowflake’ with 185,519 votes (42%). But the award was given to B2ST’s ‘Midnight’, which gained 147,310 votes (33%).

Different from other awards that take on music chart rankings and netizen votes at a ratio of 7:3, the ‘Netizen Popularity Award’ was set to have 60% of the judgment process reflect the netizens’ votes.

One representative of the industry who asked for anonymity stated, “It seems that this goes along the same lines as how JYJ are being restricted from appearing on broadcasted or music-related events due to their conflict with their former agency.”

JYJ recently ended their three-year-long legal dispute with SM Entertainment. However, JYJ’s current entertainment agency C-JeS stated, “The restrictions placed on JYJ are not because of their legal dispute. This is why we believe there won’t be much change, even after the legal dispute has ended.”

Also, it was revealed that Kim Junsu knew about the awards ceremony and the result of the polls.

On the night of the awards ceremony, Kim Junsu tweeted, “Though I wasn’t able to stand on stage at the awards ceremony.. Thank you for the love you have shown me.. I’ll repay it even more with my future activities~ I’m always so grateful to you.. Really.. A lot.”

Meanwhile, representatives of the awards ceremony stated beforehand that, “The focal point of this awards ceremony is fairness, public appeal and professionalism,” and “The judging process, based solely on online music chart rankings and netizen votes, will ensure that winners are chosen fairly.”

[FANCAMS+VIDEO] 121115 JYJ At Korea Brand & Entertainment Expo (KBEE) 2012 Ambassador Opening Ceremony At Intex In Osaka, Japan

 

Before

MC(JP): Last but not least,this one question:since you’re in Osaka, can I ask you what is your impression of Osaka?
Junsu: If Osaka, of course it’ll be takoyaki. We had experience of making takoyaki on a Japanese TV show…(I was) really *damn-bad at it..and I also like okonomiyaki. Well, if it’s Japanese food, we all love all of it. In Japan, I think it’s a good thing that we could eat **bass? Yeah…thank you

T/N:
*Junsu said a word that wasn’t formal and TBH it wasn’t appropriate for a formal ceremony but I don’t think he noticed thus JJ and Yoochun’s burst of laughter because normally you’d say you’re bad at it (heta) and not damn-bad (hetakuso)-which is so anime-like ^^
**I have no idea because it seems like he wasn’t sure what he wanted to say too..><

The group’s agency said, “The award can be viewed as the result of successfully advertising Hallyu culture through the world tour that visited 15 different cities around the world involving 210,000 fans and helping Japanese fans find a means to visit Korea by giving domestic performances and holding fan meetings and expos though we were given limited activities in Japan.”

Netizens gave various reactions at the news: “JYJ is awesome.” “The award practically proves JYJ’s popularity around the world.” However, some gave critical feedback: “There are other singer who contributed far more than JYJ. It’s kind of weird.” “Award other Hallyu stars with the commendation.”

 [News] 121029 JYJ’s Kim JunSu Receives The Best Musical Actor Award

Lately, JYJ’s Kim Jun Su was awarded at the Korea Musical Awards in the field of best leading musical actor.

On October 29 at 5:20 p.m., the 18th Korea Musical Awards was held at the Seoul Olympic Hall in Bangi-dong, Songpa-gu, and Kim received the best leading actor award for his musical Elizabeth.

After receiving the award, he stood before the audience and stated, “First of all, I want to glorify my God in heaven.” His tears interrupted him for a moment.

Then he continued, “I’m not sure if I’m qualified for a great award like this. Many of you have shown me great favor through this award. I give thanks to all actors, staff, and everyone who have been there with me since my first musical Mozart three years ago. I’m so stunned at the moment and my mind went blank. Above all, I would like to thank my parents who always had strong faith in me, and CEO Baek Chang Joo, C-Jes family, Yoo Chun, Jae Joong, and all the other EMK family.

“To be honest, musical is not just a play to me; it means something more. Thanks to it, I could stand and sing on stage again, I could be invited to an awards ceremony like this, and I could be awarded with such a great award that I thought would never happen in my life.”
