#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?

-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 fightγ
-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.

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.
