G-Dragon receives "Most Popular Korean & Japanese Artist Award" at Chinese Music Awards



BIG BANG’s member G-Dragon received the “Most Popular Korean & Japanese Artist” award at the QQ Music Awards held by QQ Music, China’s biggest music-streaming website.

G-Dragon proved his high popularity in China, by receiving the award during the ceremony held on the 27th of this month at Shenzhen, China. Top Chinese stars including Jay Chou, JJ Lin, and Jolin Tsai attended the awards and G-Dragon expressed his gratitude to fans through Video Recording, as he could not stand on the stage for the awards because of another schedule.

G-Dragon was selected as the winner, through vote by Chinese Internet users. The vote was carried out from February 28th to March 26th and G-Dragon received 20,205,786 votes, beating out Keun Suk Jang, Girls’ Generation, EXO, as well as Japanese girl group AKB48, to be honored as the awardee.

G-Dragon has given a lot of performances in and out of the country with his second full-length album “COUP D’ETAT” last year, and has been enjoying great popularity in the China as well.

Meanwhile, G-DRAGON is now committed to working on BIG BANG’s new album that will be released this year, two years after BIG BANG’s fifth mini album “ALIVE” released in 2012.

why do people like to compare the prettiness of a male idol by comparing them to female idols? as if female idols aren't pitted against each other, now they have to compete with ~pretty boys~ as well.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and it's pointless because males and females have just a different kind of beauty.

[tee-sama.livejournal.com]

Haha, GD baby, get it! I love his ridiculous outfits. I look forward to his pants being so ripped they won't be present anymore.

[snoaz.livejournal.com]

I guess he'll have to top this then, haha:



also omg when I look at those numbers: 20 million, that's a lot of votes.

him with a wig for girl mode in those hint pics looks like minah which is kind of scary

[snoaz.livejournal.com]

I think that is Minah though?

From that mnet idol chart show, I find it interesting to see the demographic of the voting. I remember in the previous poll where Jiyong was listed, he also did best in the 25-29 years category, followed by the youngest. (Whereas TOP had far most votes in the in-between category, of 20-24 years).

Although if you look at the blue votes (which I assume are guys?) he does best in 20-24 years category, hmm.

[erbalurbal.livejournal.com]

20-30 makes sense. If a fan got into them in high school/ college they would age with the group. It would also explain why they do so well digitally.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

I can see why people in the 25-29 range like him/Big Bang. Many people perceive them as "real artists" instead of idols, and their music is kinda different from the usual k-pop music (like more...experimental and "hardcore" or something), so it's not like the typical groups doing bubblegum pop music that's considered mostly for pre-teens and teens.

As for the blue votes, I've noticed that GD (and BB in general) has a shitload of fanboys. When I went to their concert in London half of the audience where teenage boys who loved him lol.

Which is the youngest category btw?

OMG, praise that model for not fidgeting like crazy with GD brandishing a mascara wand in front of her eye
lmao at that insta pic

[kyokomurasaki.livejournal.com]

Right? I wouldn't let anybody near my eyes with one of those things. Looks like a recipe for disaster.

I'm seriously loving all the instagram updates between him and Taeyang. The last photo at the bed is everything, feels. I bet GD actually is more commited to Instagram that that never-will happen-soon-BB album, I mean Taeyang album is still being mentioned to be schedule first...
