The 2026 May Netizen Awards has surpassed the monthly milestone of 1 million votes in just 21 days since it began.

As of 5:08 p.m. on the 21st, the total monthly cumulative votes for the May Netizen Awards reached 1,016,198. This record holds even greater significance as it is the result of fierce competition among fandoms across all categories, rather than being limited to a specific category.

Amidst heated ranking competitions in major categories such as Male Singer Award, Female Singer Award, Male Acting Award, Female Acting Award, and Grand Broadcast Award, the active presence of popular stars representing each category is further fueling the voting fervor.

• Male Singer Award: Hwang Young-woong was the first to enter the 40,000-vote club, leading the trend for the highest number of votes across all categories this month. • Female Singer Award: Jung Seo-ju surpassed the 20,000-vote club, proving her fans' powerful support. • Acting Award Category: Byeon Woo-seok and Kim Hye-yoon are maintaining their positions in the top ranks amidst a fierce battle. • Grand Broadcast Award: Son Tae-jin is showcasing a steady presence, rallying his fanbase.

Achieving over 1 million votes every month is not a one-time event, but rather the result of fans' continuous participation. With the voting period remaining until the end of the month, attention is focused on how high the final cumulative votes for the May Netizen Awards will reach.
