Year-end award ceremonies and music events are always an indispensable "specialty" for the Kpop fan community. The awards given to artists demonstrate the success and influence of that artist over the past year.
However, there are some cases where this year's awards ceremony lacks BTS because the group is in the period of solo activities. Only j-hope attended some major award ceremonies and performed there. But recently, there was an award ceremony that made ARMYs "surprised" because the award category named Jungkook. It was even more special when he received the award in a very personal way.
You will be surprised about the award and Jungkook's appearance in this situation:
For Kpop fans, they are always eagerly looking forward to the end of the year to be able to witness the idol's unprecedented performances and unique combinations. However, recently, these programs seem to have received less attention than in previous years, not leaving much of an impression on the public due to the lack of BTS's appearance and hot performances.
Recently, MMA is also said to have a large number of empty seats because of the lack of outstanding Gen 3 Kpop idols while the new Gen 4 groups have not really asserted a great position in the hearts of the public. But there are still a lot of awards ceremonies that take place because it has become the norm or somehow became attractive to fans in a very funny way.
In particular, recently many ARMYs were extremely surprised when they received the news that Jungkook had won the "Male Artist Of The Year" award at a grand awards ceremony, held annually as the 11th Philippine Kpop Awards. This is an award ceremony organized by The Philippine Kpop Convention in conjunction with the numerous Kpop fandoms in this country.
After being postponed for two years, the Philippine KPop Convention Inc. (KPOPCONPH) is bringing back the grandest, longest-running, and most prestigious K-POP gathering in the Philippines. Happening on December 30, 2022 at the SMX Convention Center, Pasay City, KPOPCON 11 is definitely the gathering fans would want to attend to end the year with a bang.
The Philippine Kpop Convention Inc. together with its affiliate Kpop fan clubs brought together K-Pop fans for a day-long festival filled with fun activities while promoting Korean-Filipino relations. Proceeds from the event will go to chosen charities.
After Jungkook's name was honored at this prestigious award thanks to the votes of ARMYs, ARMYs were also the ones who received this award on behalf of Jungkook. When accepting the award, the representative of ARMYs did not forget to bring a banner representing Jungkook.
The award also brought home a proud trophy that not only the Philippine ARMY fandom but also international ARMYs congratulated on this award:
- Congratulations to our ‘Male Artist of the Year’
