I need someone to explain this madness to me! How is this even work?

  • I don't really care about Awards in general, I'm obviously happy when my faves win something, but I think Baeksang shouldn't make statements like this. They're literally making this whole mess worse!


    IU were one of the nominee for the "Daesang", and the voting result is INTERESTING to say the least!


    Maybe, I'm just too tired, but the math is not mathing!

  • The only logical explanation I can think of is that someone’s vote was split in half, resulting in both IU and KWS receiving 2.5 votes each.

    Or more likely didn't vote at all, but that's even worse. I read some post about this, but not sure if it's a trustworthy source.


    Anyway, it doesn't matter, the result won't change, it's just weird as hell.

  • I do like culinary wars but not sure if it’s the best thing to ever come out of Korea last year lol.


    Personally when life gives you tangerines was good but there was nothing extraordinary about it.


    Neither IU nor CW deserved this win so that’s weird I guess.

    What actually deserve it, is only about personal taste anyway, No Award show on this planet is accurate. Even the judges are voting for their faves.


    Just look at the Oscars. What a mess is going on there now with the new rules. Judges HAVE TO watch every nominated movies, but they already said: "Oh, really? Okay, but we can put the movie in the background and do whatever we want, the Academy doesn't know if we actually watched it or not."


    Pretty much every Award show do the same. I wouldn't bet big money on the judges actually watching the nominated movies and shows.


    About the Culinary Wars. I didn't see it yet either, but even Baeksang's reason was that it had a massive impact on people, the chefs sold-out their restaurants etc.


    But honestly, if we give Awards for this, WLGYT did the same thing, Jeju Island is more popular now, a lot of people are interested in the Haenyeo Museum as well. Also, a Film Award show have to be about QUALITY writing, directing and acting, not about influence or popularity.


    They just wanted to give this to a Variety now, because most of the time it's a drama or an actor.
