K-Entertainment Part 5

   The most important event for the past week would be without any doubt MAMA Awards ceremony, beating Oscars in "Length category" even.

Anything else?

MAMA's good to you!

  On Friday, in-between classes, I managed to watch MAMA show, and fortunately for me, I caught some nice ones. 

When you're good to MAMA

MAMA's good to you.

Ever since few years I've been high-browing (is this a word or am I just in some kind of delirium?) MAMA awards, knowing they're just popularity ones. But! I'm a firm believer that even popular things can be good. I don't reject a song that is liked by half a billion people like them hipsters or other insane creatures do. Good things can be popular and popular things can be good.

Yet this list...

MAMA voting

Like I even care since JYJ is banned, and this is basically popularity awards. The truth is - I care for my 7 Derps, and I wanted to vote, just like the last year, and the year before etc. The thing is I can't. There is a statement on MAMA voting page that each ID can vote once per day. And I'm reading on various fora that it's not only my case.

Plus:

Mnet Asian Music Awards accused of vote fabrication
Accusations of a rigged voting system for the MAMA's "Best Newcomer Award" have been popping up on various websites. Netizens who participated in the voting allege that "it seems there is a system that automatically increases Huh Gak's votes by two or three every time you vote for another nominee".
Other comments left by netizens go along the line of, "Huh Gak gained popularity through Mnet's 'Super Star K2' and has a lot of mass appeal, so it's possible to conclude that those votes are legitimate. However most people wouldn't go [to the website] to vote everyday and besides, it's hard to understand how fandoms that are three times the size of his have recorded lesser votes."
A representative from Mnet responded to the ballooning allegations saying, "That is something that absolutely will not happen. It's nonsense. Does it make sense that the system is rigged? It is completely untrue. The voting system in place is very fair."
The MAMAs will be held on November 29th at the Singapore Indoor Stadium at 7pm.

Oh, MAMA...

Is there a better way to start a month than with whining about upcoming Award ceremony? Oh, actually there is but anyway... Hmm, the Best male Group has 2xSMEnt, 1xJYP, YJ, and Cube Ent... Let's see who will win. And I'm sorry to all fans, but putting SuJu into Dance Group is a disgrace for other groups in the same category. They barely move! They are no dancing group at all. No, SuJu M doesn't change my opinion at all. Maybe a bit. Big Bang another "dancing" group. Give me a break... Soon TOP will be nominated in "singing" category.

I put links to MVs to those nominated songs for everyone to check up (wheff, that was a hard job).
