If anyone can do it, these girls can!
Do the words ‘Japan Record Award’ mean anything to you? Well they will now 🙂 SNSD will be competing in the category of Best New Artist; they are one of four nominees who are up for the title. SNSD’s competition is comprised of Japanese artists ICONIQ and Kikuchi Madoka, as well as Japanese pop idol group S/Mileage. Back in November we informed you of the girls’ win in the preliminary round. Now it’s time for part 2, where a final winner will be chosen. Big Bang will be in attendance as well as they are also in the running for an award.
Here’s a breakdown of how this award show works, compliments of Wikipedia. I’ve highlighted the information that pertains to SNSD:
The Japan Record Award are four awards which are not restricted by genre.
- Japan Record Award is awarded to the performer and the production team of a single song.
- Best Album is awarded to the performer and the production team of a full album.
- Best Vocal Performance is awarded to the singer.
- New Artist award automatically nominates 4 Best new artist for the ‘Best New Artist Award,’ which will select the top debuting artist from the four winners .
- Best New Artist is awarded to a performer who releases, during the Eligibility Year, the first recording which establishes the public identity of that artist (which may not necessarily be their first proper release).
The 52nd Japan Record Award will take place on December 30th. And if you’ve been keeping up with our posts you know that the KBS Gayo Daejun music festival also takes place on the 30th. There are high expectations for an SNSD appearance, despite their Japanese schedule earlier in the day. Looks like they’ll be rushing out of the ceremony as soon it conludes and preparing for their special stage en-route.
Let’s all wish SNSD lots of luck with both the award and their travels!

good luck girls and please SME don’t overwork them too much T_T
wow! this just proves that the girls are totally amajjing!
“Big Bang will accompany SNSD as they are also in the running for an award.”
so what does this mean, like bb will be their escorts?
kekeke how i wish,hahaha
No,it means Big Bang will be at the awards ceremony as well.
Hm, I’ll re-write that so there’s no future confusion.
Fixed! Sorry ^^
Yay! Your first official news post? SNSD and Big Bang, my two favourite groups 🙂
Yep! Feels great lol
Same! 😀
gosh, they have to fly to japan aft the kbs performance!? That is so rush… Snsd dabaek!
somebody called me?? hahaa..just kidding 🙂
you’re right momo, i hope they won’t tire themselves. They’re human after all and us sones DO NOT WANT anything bad happpens to them.
That’s crazy D: D: D:
I rather have them not attending KBS Gayo Daejun… /sigh
SME, its the holidays, give them a break >.<
While I am usually of the same opinion as crazy51 because I hate to see them get overworked, I am actually in favor of them attending the KBS Gayo Daejun. Not because of the selfish reason that I want to see them perform (… ok I admit, there’s a little bit of that), but by NOT attending, it could be detrimental to their popularity as well as their working relationship with the KBS production team. I believe the same people that produces the Gayo Daejun also runs Music Bank, and that’s a very important music show for all Korean artists.
If you’re into general Kpop, you know relationships and connections matter a lot in the Korean music industtry, it’s not in the artist’s best interest to do something and piss off the wrong PD, and risk getting blacklisted from their music programs. Just look at the current state of MNet and SM Entertainment, and YG Entertainment with various networks (they declined to appear on the KBS Gayo Daejun because they didn’t agree with them handing out a popularity award??), it’s hairy and not worth the risk. My point is, it’s probably best for SNSD to attend the KBS Gayo Daejun to avoid the politics and the potential consequences alltogether.
Yes, I agree. Maybe they could pre-record their performance to avoid them getting too overworked (because they also have other Gayo Daejuns in the 29th and 31st ;__;) …but that’s also seem unlikely 😦
KBS does run MuBank, and its a special music program for the girls since this is the only music program that holds their legendary record (that i think will never be beat anymore), with a total of 9 consecutive weeks. they were the first and only group to do so, thus MuBank change their scoring system after this phenomenon. i too would like to see them on KBS’ Gayo because indeed, KBS holds a very strong relationship with SNSD.
Here’s wishing teh girls a successful outcome for the Japanese Record Award competition and the stamina to endure the plane ride back to Korea to perform at the KBS Gayo Daejun 😀 😀 😀 !!!! May the Good Lord keep them healthy always 🙂 !!! SNSD HWAITING !!!!
Sure they can win…..they r reli bc ppl…haha…
Take care of yr body too, snsd!
SNSD, fighting! ^^
Hope they win!! And I spy a familiar name among the girls’ competiton….. LOL there’s a TV character in S’pore that once said “Cruuuush them like a cockroach” Haha. 😀
I totally agree with RagingXL. It seems that they are in a dilemma now.. KBS is like the most popular broadcasting station and it’s govt-backed so getting on KBS Gayo Daejun is important. I don’t know how this will turn out but I just hope that the girls don’t get too tired out and GoodLuck (like they need it ;))!!!!!!!!!!!! Fighting!
i need some soshibang!
wow..
that’s amazing..
they will win.. good luck n fighting..!!
SNSD is jjangg n daebakk.. 🙂
Whoa, that will be kindda tiring .. Anyway, hope the girls win ^_^
That would be a hectic schedule for the Girls.. 30th would be the date… hope the Girls would teleport themselves hehehhe.. ^_^… wishing the best to The SOSHI,,, SNSD FIGHTING… ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
I just hope that the girls won’t be so tired out on that day. We cannot keep blaming SME for their hectic schedule the girls said themselves that they like that they are doing in which singing and performing for their fans.
*so many typos T__T
We cannot keep blaming SME for their hectic schedule cause the girls said themselves that they like what they are doing in which singing and performing for their fans.
wow…the life of the superstars, lol! i wish Concord planes are still in business because they’ll be back in forth from Japan to Korea in like 10 minutes at most. btw: i’m really feeling bad right now, after hearing that the other girl group was chosen as the rookie of the year instead of our beloved girls :(. so this is at least a consolation…
