-Wow, Extraordinary Attorney Woo is only 10 votes behind Queen of Tears. Looks like it was a big hit in Japan. I already knew Crash Landing on You and Queen of Tears were successful there.

-Whoa... Wasn't Misaeng released 10 years ago?

-Itaewon Class ranks lower than I expected.

-As expected, Queen of Tears.

-For a second, I thought Chicken Nugget was ranked #1 and got really confused.

-It’s fascinating how dramas from different eras made it onto the listㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Extraordinary Attorney Woo ranks higher than I expected.

-Hospital Playlist is an unexpected one.

-Boys Over Flowers is the oldest drama on the list. That's impressive.

-I figured it would be Queen of Tears.

-Did it rank first because it’s a recent drama?

-Goblin isn’t on the list?

-Queen of Tears was such a hit in Japan. I saw Kim Soohyun’s ads everywhere there.

-Queen of Tears seems to be a huge hit in Japan.

-I need to check out the dramas I haven’t seen yetㅎㅎ

-Wow, Queen of Tears is #1. It’s my favorite drama of 2024.

-In Japan, sweet and warm dramas are really popular, that's why Baek Hyunwoo is widely loved there.

-It's surprising how Lovely Runner isn't on the list.

-As expected, Queen of Tears. There really hasn’t been a drama that compares to it this year.

-If Wonyoung asked me to date her, I'd say yes. To me, she's an absolute beautyㅠㅠ

-So beautiful ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅠㅜㅜㅠ

-I was so shocked to see Liz here. She radiates the vibe of a female lead character in romance fantasy.

-I couldn't take my eyes off of Liz. I replayed their performance video multiple times.

-Why is Jang Wonyoung so beautiful???

-Yujin really looks like Artemis. The three of them are so beautiful.

-I saved all of Wonyoung's pictures from the red carpet yesterdayㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ She's so f*cking gorgeous.

-Liz suits blonde hair really well.

-Liz... Whoa, she looks like a Disney princess.

-Why are they all so beautiful?

-The fact that they're all over 170 cm tall and beautiful makes my heart flutter.

-I usually don't say cringe-worthy things like this, but they really look like princesses.

-Liz looks amazing in blonde hair and that red outfit.

-iz really looks like she came out of a romance fantasy webtoon. IVE's members are all beautiful.

'Award thief' currently becomes #1 searched key-word in Weibo in real-time. [2024 MAMA] Daesang controversy - Enhypen > Jimin

 #1 award thief - Jimin (The winner of Fan's Choice Award)

In both rounds of the Fan Choice public voting, Enhypen ranked 1st.

Most people predicted Enhypen would win the Fan's Choice Award

But in the category that's 100% based on fan voting, only the Visa Fans' Choice voting had its ranking hidden and Jimin won 1st place, which caused a stir among Enhypen's international fandom.

+) Why was the voting ranking kept hidden for this year's Visa Fans' Coice Award when the rankings were usually made public in previous years?


Jimin dropped from 1st to 6th due to invalid votes in the first round.

Enhypen's international fandom, who worked hard voting for a month, is now raising concerns about vote manipulation.

Does it make sense that the Visa Fans' Choice Award's rankings are kept hidden when the award itself is based on fan votes 100%?

Mnet’s MAMA production team should fairly disclose the voting rate and ranking for the Visa Fans' Choice Award.

+) Fans' Choice 1st round public voting result: ENHYPEN 1st place.

Fans' Choice 2nd round public voting: ENHYPEN ranked 1st for two weeks straight.

+)

Fans are aware that the voting for the Fan Choice and the Visa Fan Choice of the Year Awards are separate, so Enhypen's fans voted in both categories.

Enhypen's voting accounts kept emphasizing that there were two separate votes.

When voting for Fan Choice, the Visa voting would automatically appear, so why didn’t people vote for both?

But it’s strange that while Enhypen was ranked 1st in the public voting (with disclosed rankings), only the Visa voting, which kept its rankings hidden, had Jimin ranked 1st.

This is why the whole situation causes an uproar over accusations of vote manipulations, even among international fans.

Fans are calling for MAMA to disclose the voting rates and rankings fairly.

Isn’t it natural to expect full transparency of the rankings in a 100% fan-vote-based award?

theqoo

-Reveal the vote count.

-It’s shady from the start that the vote count is not disclosed. Even if they reveal it later, how can we trust it?

-It’s definitely shady, but since it’s a fight between the beneficiary groups of that company, I just want to say, "F*ck this. Whatever. You guys fight it out yourselves.”

-Both of them are under HYBE, so let them figure it out themselves.

-But the fact that they're not revealing the results is very shady.

-If it's 100% based on fan votes, the results should be fully disclosed.

-Family fightㅋ

-Since they’re fighting amongst themselves, whatever. But it's indeed hilarious how they keep the vote results hidden when it's 100% based on fan votes.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Are they trying to kill each other?

-It's so funny that these Haboongies are trying to slander each otherㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Enhypen is really popular in Chinaㅋㅋ

-Now that I think about it, they’re both from HYBE.

-They should've given that award to Enhypen.

-What a messㅋㅋㅋ

-Disclose the results.

-Award thiefㅋㅋㅋ But the fans must be so pissed off since they worked so har on the voting.

-If it’s an award based on votes, they should disclose the vote counts.

-But Bigbang's performance was indeed that amazingㅋㅋ

-This is so f*cking hilariousㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-The way he froze with both his hands clasped is seriously so cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-This is so cuteㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The singers around him were all giving reactions. He was the only one who froze like that. it's so funnyㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I was born in 1995 too. When I was in middle and high school, all the boys were crazy for Bigbangㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-He became a statue...

-Why is this so adorable?ㅠㅋㅋㅋ

-He looks like the typical female main character in a romance dramaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Dex is such an amusing guyㅋㅋㅋ

[2024 MAMA] Categories where the actual winners are different from the predicted ones

 

Song of the Year

Predicted winner: ILLIT
Actual winner: Aespa

Best OST

Predicted winner: ECLIPSE
Actual winner: Crush

Best Vocal Performance Solo

Predicted winner: IU
Actual winner: BIBI

Best Dance Performance Female Group

Predicted winner: ILLIT
Actual winner: Aespa

theqoo

-Congratulations, Aespa! Their popularity is undeniable. They truly deserved the award.

-This year was absolutely Aespa's yearㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Aespa deserves that award. I'm not a fan of anyone and I think Supernova deserves to win that award.

-Saying that Aespa was forced to win is f*cking hilarious. First of all, the difference isn't that huge. Besides, with the impact that Aespa created this year, of course the judges would overturn it. Are you kidding me?

-Huh? Isn’t it obviously Aespa? If Aespa swept up all the awards this year, people would still say, 'Well, that makes sense,' right?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Aespa totally deserves it. Congratulations! It's a shame that 'Sudden Shower' didn't win, though.

-It's a bit strange that 'Sudden Shower' didn't winㅋㅋㅋ The results clearly scream 'Sudden Shower'

-Why not 'Sudden Shower'? Have you never heard of 'You are a gift~'?

-Even if you were in jail or abroad this year, anyone can clearly tell this year was Aespa's year. What kind of nonsense is this?

-Switching the #1 and #2 winner is honestly understandable... But with a 10% difference? Well, there's also judge's evaluations anyway...

-'Sudden Shower' didn't win the Best OST?

-Those lists are not even confirmed. They're just predictionsㅋㅋ

-Byun Wooseok attended the ceremony and even performed the song there. So, why didn't they give him the award?

-Honestly, this year was absolutely Aespa's year.

-It's so f*cking absurd that 'Sudden Shower' didn't win the Best OST. They even invited the actor to perform that song.

-Isn't ILLIT a rookie group?

-I think these all seems fair...

Song of the Year 

Aespa - Supernova

Artist of the Year 

SEVENTEEN

Fan's Choice of the Year 

Jimin

theqoo 

-Two of these awards should've gone to Aespaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ What's this.

-What Jimin received is 100% based on votes. It’s hard to consider it a Daesang; it’s more like a popularity award. Even that had voting irregularities.

-Aespa deserved at least two awards, considering it’s their year.

-Congratulations, SEVENTEEN!!

-They all deserve to win those awards. Congratulations.

-I thought SEVENTEEN won those awards for 'God of Music,' but that song wasn't even released this year.

ㄴSince the judging started from October last year. 'God of Music' actually qualifies.

-What song did SEVENTEEN release this year? I'm curious.

-Congratulations, SEVENTEEN.

-Congratulations, Jjang-spa.

-Congatulations, SEVENTEEN and Aespa.

-I think Aespa should've won two awards, though..?

-I think the Best Album of the Year should've gone to DAY6......

-That agency againㅋ

-Congratulation, Jimin.

-This year was clearly Aespa's year, though...

-I think they all deserve to win their awards, though...?

-Aespa, Aespa, Aespa. They should've given those awards to Aespa.

-I totally enjoyed this year because of Aespa!

-Congratulations to SEVENTEEN, Aespa, and Jimin.
