Congrats Jay! Hard work pays off, doesn\'t it?

You have to listen to Bolbbalgan4\'s album if you haven\'t. her voice.... oh my gosh. I get goosebumps at her voice.

finally, the awards with creds, not some popularity contest. congrats to all the winners. particularly proud of wg.

It\'s cool to see some artists getting recognition. It\'s time for changes in Korea ! Tired of the big compagnies to always get all awards ! really, Korea is waking up from a long long chaebol occupation, and it\'s time !

Jay won Male Musician of the Year previously for two years, but that was fan voted so it was a popularity award. This one however is one of the major categories chosen by judges. I\'m just so happy for him. This is the one Award Show that is not based around idols and recognizes all types of artists and music genres in Korea.
