if shinee attend ....
does that mean they won something??

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

yea. sm wouldn't send a group if they weren't winning something, lbr.

[sayuridoll.livejournal.com]

basically means f(x), Taeyeon/Girls' Generation, SHINee, and EXO won something.

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

yea, ia. or f(x), taeng / snsd, shinee / jonghyun and exo, depending.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't think Jonghyun is gonna win anything with Zion T/Kyuhyun nominated in the same categories as him but it'd be so nice.

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

male solo is either gonna be zion.t or jonghyun, imo. zion.t's nominated for male vocal performance too. kyuhyun apparently isn't attending.

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

idk, have they given awards to non-attending people before? at least considering the criteria, jonghyun has less online votes and less digital sales than zion t/kyuhyun and those two are at least 40-50% of the total points.

[byeolbyeol.livejournal.com]

the only two times that i can think of were when cnblue won best rock band last year and aoa accepted it, but that was only because no one else nominated was attending. shinee won in 2013 without attending but that was because they were originally meant to and had to back out last minute when their win was already decided on. i'm just saying: it could go either way. infinite won best male group in 2013 when they had low votes too and they were up against both shinee and exo, so it always whittles down to mnet panel preference and attendance in the end.

I attended last year and if i remember correctly seo taiji was nominated for best rock band as well and he had a super elaborate performance with a huge blown up tree and a whole intro video crowning him the father of all rock music in korea blah blah blah but they still gave it to cnblue
but with the way the crowd was chanting for cnblue I feel like there would have been a riot if they didnt win

All the girls are winning at this point but neither of the male groups are winning despite exo being the "most supported star."

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

That's only online voting though. That only counts for 10-20% of the total points.

[epls6.livejournal.com]

u should see the fights over best dance male group performance, and isnt SM stuff lol

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

I was convinced that shinee wasn't going to attend so that probably means they've won something fuck yeah.
Pretty sure that it'll be best male dance but at least it's something.
Other (predictable) predictions: EXO = album of the year, Taeyeon = best female artist and/or best female vocal performance and f(x) = best MV or that global award.

As long as I get my OT5

[maghishaw.livejournal.com]

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

+10000
I hope they get an amazing ass stage that shows why are they considered one of the best dance/performance groups.

[xxhna.livejournal.com]

Interesting. I was hoping they'd sit this one out so they could rest or something. They've all been so busy.

[psharp10.livejournal.com]

i rlly need to be able to watch this show now

but chances are that i'm going to miss parts of it :( hopefully not my faves' performances tho

[elisaorange.livejournal.com]

Not a huge variety in the confirmed performers so far (company-wise).

& Was hoping SNSD would perform.

[startthechase.livejournal.com]

Only 1 girl group and 2 female solo artists? Side eyeing.

[dickslikejesus.livejournal.com]

lmfao so the YG concert though? What a shock more SM showed up at MNET that loves them, I would have /NEVER/ guessed, I thought the conspiracy theorists were totally onto something!

[dickslikejesus.livejournal.com]

girl serve them up all the fucking facts please while I watch and bow. lmfao

Ugh Miss A this is injustice at it's fucking finest. I really want to like JYP but I can't deal with how long I've waited for more Miss A.

[sodapab.livejournal.com]

But this show needs more girl groups...

[facedancers.livejournal.com]

Torn happy to see EXO but now I'll have to watch. I had hoped RV would be confirmed but doesn't look like SM will send people that aren't going to win anything.

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

[ohlookshiny.livejournal.com]
