As you know, Seoul Drama Awards is an upcoming event. Yoochun is a candidate for Best Korean Actor. His drama Sunkgkyunkwan Scandal is a candidate for Best Drama. The song Found You by JYJ is up for Best OST.
There seems to have been voting activity that is strange and if true, very likely to be due to usage of programs or other illegal means.
The above chart shows that over the course of the night, votes for Yoochun (blue) took place in a low but consistent manner (largely a straight line). In contrast, votes for Jang Keunsuk took place in extremely large spurts. In particular, the conspicuous peak in the middle of the chart shows that at 5:47am, 4968 votes were placed within that minute.
As a result, votes for Jang Keunsuk (in Red) which were more than 20,000 behind that for Yoochun (in green) has caught up dramatically in the span of 4 hours (first graph). This is because, as the second graph shows, a very large amount of votes were cast for Jang Keunsuk in those hours in spurts while votes for Yoochun stayed steady (second graph).
The chart above is in minute-increments. It shows that at some points over the recorded time period, 100 to 400+ votes were cast for Jang Keunsuk in a single minute. The screen captures below the chart shows that in a single minute between 1:37 and 1:38, 403 votes were cast for Jang Keunsuk.
This is not the first time that it is suspected that votes for Jang Keunsuk for a high-stakes poll were placed by a program. See here for an article from Allkpop from last year, in which Jang Keunsuk’s main competition was singer/actor Kim Hyunjoong. Kim Hyunjoong led the votes until the last few days, at which time votes for Jang Keunsuk increased in a manner similar to it is increasing today. Jang Keunsuk eventually won.
It is expected that the voting for Seoul Drama Awards end at 9am on August 16, KST. Currently, all categories (Best Korean Actor; Best Drama; Best OST) have been overtaken by votes for Jang Keunsuk. Please go to JYJ3’s “VOTE for JYJ” tab or in the alternative here to vote now, and please also let your voices be heard by Korea.com by leaving them a message.

http://www.twitlonger.com/show/c1jmje Just saying, this is their ‘another’ instruction
We notice this strangeness but can’t do anything. Many voters (not just JYJ’s voters) have complained that their votes went to JGS instead
huwaaaaaaaa!!! what a shame!!!
Did they think JGS will feel satisfy with what his fans done????
#shakehead
I dont believe this!
JYJ still has a chance to win…since the final result is from buyers (20%) and cyworld (30%) where JYJ won already. However for the “best actor”, YC…>”< I don't know, dear. It is a shame tho
the odd thing was that i checkdd my vote yesterday and all my votes were switch to all the cast that. mary show
i dont ONLY thing it was a program but i think ppl for jang made a glitch and altered votes
x[[[[
T^T
so, what will happen if till the end JGS is still lead this poll??
JGS win this awards? what a shame =_______=
@blackestmind,nothing will change ,because THEY want that result ,and you know who …..
yeah i’m not sure how happy JGS will be when he finds out @_@ this is cheating.
doesn’t he know from last year already…makes me question him
yes and we lose this chance for them to get some broadcast
SIDA+KBS+JEJU> KOREA + INTERNATIONAL FANS
i hate this one news
yoochun-ah… hwaiting.. we know that all of your fans already vote for you
Thank you JYJ3 for posting this.. I was really expecting you jumping in and reporting the status of this.. I hope we can have this data sent to the SDA Committee representatives.
If Kim Hyung Joong fans allowed JGS to get away with it.. well they challenged the wrong fandom now.. we’ll certainly should not allow cheaters to win..
Well, J1, for me, if the fandom I’m associated with has a reputation of cheating, I’ll feel pretty much ashamed.
Nothing against the idol but his fans are really bringing shame to themselves and seriously, he will definately be implicated.
J2.. though it can happen that the perpetrators are only a few rotten people..
the rest of the fandom should have not tolerated or supported such deeds..
I hoe to God that it will not happen to us since we pretty much have confidence in the boys’ abilities and their fans diligence and support..
The difference here, we vote with our wallets, and ok a few extra IPS accounts. 🙂 But that’s just labor intensive kind of love, especially when they say you can vote more than once. But internal hacking is not something JYJ fans feel the need to do. There’s no % in it for us. We enjoy too much the pride of knowing a job well done at the end. That’s why I don’t think that will happen with JYJ fans — PRIDE.
@BAF
Oh yes, this 2 years, our heart have swelled so much with pride from being JYJ’s fans that we will tolerate no nonsense from even fellow fans.
I just hate the fact that our fellow JYJers tried so hard only to be surpassed by cheaters!
–> We are down but not out!! You may win a battle but we will win the war!!!
Should such a saga happen here. It is without a doubt, the ploy of anti-fans.
If Kim Hyung Joong fans allowed JGS to get away with it.. well they challenged the wrong fandom now.. we’ll certainly should not allow cheaters to win..
i love you already
http://www.facebook.com/board.php?uid=145483208823170
please go here to complain further…
You should write in in a tweet – I would gladly retweet you. I rly believe in the strength of this fandom, we may not win but we won’t let them go easy on us :]
i like this comment ” we may not win but we won’t let them go easy on us”
Yo tn me dí cuenta de esto es ilogico que pueda en unos minutos subir tanto como 400 votos por minuto y Yoochun tan poco… chicas apoyesmolo!!
They did it to the OST as well….
Cheaters !!! Cheaters !!! They even cheat the votes for an Event like this… It seemed to me That they have to “CHEAT” everything in order to win … What a shame !!!
@Della Tanri,I wonder how many more AWARD in KOREA will get THE RESULT like this one,and this is not the first time,they didn’t learn and fix the problem from last year,so ,does it mean they really really want this problem continueing as ever?The voting resultd is a shame. This is a HUGE injustice and many of international fans are fed up!! SIDA ,how the heck can you rely on a voting system that was so messed up in the last three dayswith the numbers as they were?!!
@rainyday4me
Hi !!! I had no idea at all….I was quite fed-up with the systems in Korea…..Everything has to be done in crooked ways…
I hate to put see a fellow fandom get accused of cheating.
But so much just adds up that its just really not fair
I just hope something catches the attention of the SDA staff.
Me too cause we don’t need problems with other randoms right now.
But this is uncalled for.
I also wonder why Woo Chun is behind JGS now, I need find another way is yahoo Korea Voting!
I know this gonna be happened again! Ashamed with u korea, no more justice, never believd in korea industry anymore
For me it’s better to lose that to win dishonestly, what pride and honor does it bring, winning with a clout of doubt, and this SIDA with so obvious manipulations and not only just doubts, If i’m a JGS fan, I’ll be very ashamed and how can I look at JYJ’s fan eyes. Whatever happens, deep in me I know that Yoochun, SKKS and Chajjata are the true winners.
Amen 🙂 What good is an award if was obtained by cheating
This news also appears in daum’s Home page.We want have a fair treatment.
every jyj and yuchun fans, if u hv fb account, please vote for skks candidates to show our supports to yuchun n jyj…
they’d wrote on Korea.com facebook about 18 hours ago, that they’d fix the problem. but i don’t see the changes. am i wrong?
How can the moderators of SDA online voting not notice the discrepancy in the voting? It’s obvious that something needs to be taken a second look, with the numbers just spiking like that. Let’s hope it gets addressed asap!
I dont like BS like this. Seriously dx like it.
somebody please explain to me..what exactly happen about the vote that i give to yoochun..move to JGS..it’s true or i am wrong???
I really don’t now
in yahoo yoochun 1# in facebook 2#
what’s that mean ?
now its a conspiracy by yoochun fans apparently
They HAVE NO SHAME
http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=145483208823170&topic=1830
wait so, this thing is untrue? okay now that’s desperate and embarrassing…
sigh….this is offensive like seriously. The turn around game they did is just childish.
They are trying to say this honey: Hey JYJ fans, we heard you had a lot of things going on. Why don’t you come and use me as a stress ball. And we say: YES Finally I can torture someone =.=
i’ve re-read that comment like five times and i still don’t understand what they’re trying to say (other than the obvious something-illegal-is-taking-place-blame-yoochun-fans). i think i’m just slow.
Whaaaat? She suggests that we ourselves voted for JGS in order to disgrace his fans? Im speechless:/ This is just too much!
This is too comical!!’
I had to burst out laughing after reading JGS’s fans accusation…
These people need to get a life, if they really believe we would vote for somone else, just to disgrace them.
What would be the point of that? Pleasee be real….does that even make the least bit of sense??….
Right that is just TOO much playing.
I don’t even think JYJ fans have the time to pull
something off like that. JGS fans are not that much
of a threat for us to deliberately go out our way to
discredit them in THIS WAY. JYJ fans mentality aren’t
even like that. Our love for JYJ and Yoochun over rides
stupid stuff like that. We rather vote more for JYJ and Yoochun
than to discredit people. SHAME. SILLY. I agree, comical!
Really, I don’t believe a word of that.
Park YooChun and JYJ is good enough to win the polls without having to resort to dirty tricks like that. And I think the graphs shows very clearly the unexplainable increased in votes for the other side.
This is exactly “A thief shouting theft.”
i can only LOL.. their accusation is the lamest i’ve heard.. worst than the ones i usually see from trolls at AKP..
Someone needs to give this people brains.. +___+
Uhh they have brains, I assure you. But I don’t think they have the capability to use them.
What?! I stared at the op’s comment for a good minute before it sunk in… How is that even plausible?!? Why would we want Yoochun to lose.. So we can make some other guy look bad?!? That’s so nonsensical. You can’t argue with crazy… and that’s CRAZY!
What do you mean by that, exactly? -___-
trollin?
Pretty much. The best defense is an offense…however, this offense is so lame as to not be believed. It’s not going to wash anyhow. The shame is already there. Even though we can’t get the votes back, there still should be an official complaint made.
your pathetic attempt at trolling astounds me
WHAT A SHAME!!!
At the moment I think I don’t want SIDA to intervene ‘coz it’ll make JYJ win – if JGS wins, we’ll call his fans cheaters, if SIDA cancels their votes, JGS fans will call it manipulation. I’m scared it might hurt our boys’ reputation to those who don’t know the problem…:(
I’m going to have disagree with you on this one. YOU should NEVER be ashamed to stand up for yourself. Correcting a wrong or an injustice is your given right. It matters not what ‘the other side’ says. Once the facts are laid out – who, what, when, where, how, and we know the WHY, that’s all there is to it. Right is right, and wrong is wrong.
JYJ stood up to SME and people call them things they are not (greedy, traitors, gangsters). People speak about the JYJ’s situation and they don’t know the problem. They get information from the wrong people, but look JYJ are STILL HERE (don’t me me start singing I can Soar lol). JYJ fans are STILL HERE so don’t worry about this and what it might do. We have been through worse we can stick this one thing out too. I remember when that whole lovejyj thing happened I thought it would hurt JYJ. We are still here I see, everyone forgot about that and that moment of intense worry lol, I thought JYJ was going to crash and burn over some fan’s mistake lol but nope didn’t happen. That moments is small compared to what happened to them some 2 years ago, and even that moment of facing a powerful company like SME didn’t crash and burn them. Again they thought they will never sing. But look at them now. We can stick this out.
These charts show that there’s some truth to our claims so how can they claim manipulation? Manipulation is when you influence someone maliciously. Dictionary.com says, “to manage or influence skillfully, especially in an unfair manner”. We’re not doing that, our influence will come from an outside unbias report of what happened, the truth, the facts. These charts, no one can argue that this is manipulation because it is plain to see that something ‘happened’ which is unfair to Yoochun and JYJ. A person who knows nothing about JYJ or JGS can look at these charts and question that it’s odd.
If they claim manip, let them but we know we don’t have no need to manipulate anyone. We do have a need though to tell the truth and to right what is wrong and if the truth and making things right is considered manipulation to them then so be it. That’s just their own skewed thinking has nothing to do with us.
Like Butterfliesarefree said, what is right is right what is wrong is wrong. Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself.
Thank u for these words, I guess ur right, girls:) we should fight for justice! But it’s just that I wanted them to win in glory, but in this disgraceful competition is it still an honour to win…? Hope we’ll make them feel it is;) They surely already know about the situation, hope they’re not worried to much….
the news had been brought up at Daum http://bbs1.telzone.daum.net/gaia/do/board/photo/read?articleId=463238&bbsId=A000010&pageIndex=6&t__nil_telzone=txt&nil_id=2 what a shame!!!
i’ve check my vote n thank god my vote weren’t wrong. I hope Korea.com deal with this problem as soon as possible!! we want justice!
@aceopeia,There is no justice at any KOREAN ENTERTAINMENT AWARDS….
unfortunately JGS’s fans are mentioning Chunnie and harassing him about Chunnie’s fans… Please keep a calm approach when approaching this problem on FB or any other sites. Chunnie doesn’t tweet much but we don’t need him being spammed with crazy shit.
i just hope he sticks to the “once-a-month” twitter policy and just let this all pass, don’t want him to be hurt by any words of unkindness…
i hope he doesn’t see those mean tweets 😦
OMG this is truly unacceptable!!!!
(sigh)…
can’t someone tips this to allkpop..i don’t know how to tips..
lets the world know how ugly the things has become..
we need Jimmie here….
OMG !!!
and i cried yesterday cuz the site didn’t allow any of my FB account to vote for our JYJ … and now this is what happen … dirty under table play …. omg ….
just after i tray yesterday me and my small sis was talking about there is something not normal at all in this vote ,, cuz from the first day we do our best and our boys become the first from the beginning and so suddenly in the last few day all fans can’t vote any more .. but jgs vote keep increasing in number … oh my god … i’m really mad and disappointment about this dirty play …
×hugs× *sighs* …
hi guys, please keep in mind to not regard this as the act of the entire fandom, and do not direct or apply these to every eel…
from what it appears, it is various sections within the fandom doing this, so just keep in mind k
http://www.allkpop.com/2010/12/yahoo-asia-buzz-awards-under-fire-for-suspicious-poll-results
guys read here… some of them did this to Kim hyun joong last year too
Everybody ask TripleS to vote for yoochun
they must have been so pissed
i dont want to make this our future
i’m a TS too and this same thing happened last year making me jumped like a mad cow till the day of the awarding. . so you bet i’m gonna vote again and again for our boys. .
i wouldn’t have doubted the rigging of votes if it were another actor. .but JKS again??! really WTF! MSOAN was not even a good drama. .it sucks! day of the awarding. . so you bet i’m gonna vote again and again for our boys. .
i wouldn’t have doubted the rigging of votes if it were another actor. .but JKS again??! really WTF! MSOAN was not even a good drama. .it sucks!
true that… I knew many people had actually watched MSOAN and not one of them had anything good to say about it. They had a great cast but squandered them on horrible writing and horrible hair… Anyway, I used to really liked JGS (before the crazy hobo hair period) but too bad some of his fans are so dishonest. It’s really sad and it will probably reflect badly on him and hurt him more than it will hurt to us…
I like JGS. He’s such a good actor and his deep voice is hot (baby face with sexy and manly voice –> win win!)
But I watched this drama and it was just crap! It was a total waste for the great cast it had! I downloaded MGOAN, watched and deleted from my HD: I made room for something better with no remorse or regret…
I’m not fond of historical drama. SKKS was the first I watched and only because of Chunnie. And it was GREAT! I enjoyed every second. I loved the storyline, the actors, OST, the bromance, the work of historical reconstruction for costumes and buildings…It was really the best of the best drama of 2010.
Second place IMHO goes to Secret Garden because the interaction between the two main cast was awesome, their acting was great, Oska was so funny and even OST was good.
I would be ready to accept defeat in all areas by Hyun Bin&Co, because many have actually appreciated this drama. But in the current ranking it is largely overlooked in favor of shit like MGOAN and that’s incredibly disgusting and unfair.
“PARK’S FAN ALREADY USE ILLEGAE WAY TO VOTE HIS IDOL!”
Illegal? WTH. It is THEM who did that and they still dare to accuse Yoochun’s fans.
@Please, this is the first joke of the day….HAHHAHAHHHAHHHA
Many JYJ fans have asked the proof but no one gives us the proof that we are cheating. The title of the forum itself have provoked us. “Park’s fans use illegal way to add our voting data”.
I believe not all of them are like that, but some of them might be.
Pardon? I think I misunderstood.
Maybe it’s time to accept the advice of my eye specialist and think of a pair of glasses.
No, no. I read that right.
This is like the ox calling a mule horned! (Italian idiom that fits in this situation)
It’s called — creative lying. Need I say more?
OKay, dont accuse all Eels.. Its obviously some of them only… Lets not start a fanwar here. please be polite. ty
Well, is it strange? I don’t know, or I should say I have queries?.What about over ten million hits on SNSD ior over million hits ion Homin?
on the day when the voting began i vote for yoochun and jyj boys but when i check it again yesterday why my vote goes to JGS?? this dirty play, OMG, they should be fair and did they know the true winner is the one who can accept the result,rite? being a winner or a loser!
Did you print screen it?
Anything that has to do with JYJ print screen guys!
this happened to me too… i found out about it last friday. I voted all SKK nominees a month ago and been seeing the results fair w/o any problem.. but not until last friday… i was so shocked that the my best actor marked with red strip is JGS and NOT Yoochun… up until now. I even commented on korea.com FB. I even told this to JYJ PH last friday… and during that night still.. I was monitoring the results and refreshes the page every now and then and saw that Mary OST has been catching up by 100-1000 votes in just a matter of seconds. Too bad i wasn’t able to screen cap it…. Coz, i thought that time it’s still normal… and thought there’s a lag in the system and I was the only one experiencing it but not until Saturday where others started to notice their votes went to JGS, Mary and BUS Ost…Even those who voted Secret Garden went to the same place where JGS is….. and rumor of votes and screencaps of cheating from chinese fansite of JGS were spreading on twitter.
I seriously think korea.com voting system has been hacked. and others were really using illegal programs.
Yoochun’s in all categories is WAY AHEAD JGS from beginning until friday…
Isn’t it very ODD that votes started to shift from one category to another??? first the best OST… then… the best DRAMA… then the best ACTOR…. …. Korea.com SDA voting system SUCKS. they’re incompetent and irresponsible.
Since i personally experience it… I totally believe in this cheating phenomenon. Shame on them! WHOEVER IS BEHIND THIS… wait for your KARMA.
This person:
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002716860488
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002795894083
And this person are the smae person
“THEY” have no facebook friends and their only interest is korea.com
obviously fake accounts created to vote
Report them on Facebook. Under their profile, there’s a “report/block this person” button. Pop up message appears, click the third option “This profile is pretending to be someone or is fake”, and then choose the last type “Does not represent a real person” After that confirm everything is true to the best of your knowledge. But I am sure it won’t take long for FB to confirm and ban that person since they have no profile pictures or friends.
jgs must be a shame to have a fans like that.. luckily JYJ fans are not cheating and even if yoochun/JYJ doesn’t win, we will never feel sad because we know yoochun/JYJ is really worth for a fair voting….I’m glad we are not lame and cheated like you-know-who!!
I know its not JGS fault nor the entire fandom, but I cant help to feeling sick! >__<
Agree… makes my stomach hurts…
it’s not fair for yoochun T___T
i don’t know but this article reminds me one article that i was read one month ago, i forgot where i read that article but i found the same article like this: http://www.japanprobe.com/2011/07/01/korean-wave-fakery-phony-japanese-fans-paid-to-greet-jang-geun-suk/
i don’t know if it’s really true or not but it made me think that cheat is part of JGS management and his fans life so he will get more popular? don’t get me wrong, i’m not an anti of JGS but u know, this kind of things really pissed me off so yeah it made me lose my respect for him 😦
Korean Wave Fakery: Phony Japanese Fans Paid to Greet Jang Geun-suk
http://www.6theory.com/forum/index.php/topic/37960-japanese-fans-paid-to-greet-jang-geun-suk/
At first, I just considered it as showbiz intrigues, but with this SIDA voting irregularities, I’m doubting if this Korean Wave Fakery is just a mere intrigue.
I don’t blame the Eels, it’s not their fault. They don’t know what’s happening either, that’s why they are blaming Yoochun’s fans. So what if some of them figured out how to vote multiple times? We can’t honestly say that we didn’t do the same in the past when we had the opportunity, it would be a lie. Not all of the Cassiopeia of course just some of them, just like now not all of the Eels just some of them. So I don’t blame them.
I think the biggest shame here is that I think the officials are changing the votes because if Yoochun and JYJ win, it would cause them problems. It’s not about if JGS wins or not, it’s about not letting Yoochun and JYJ win. Just imagine. If the boys win, there’s award ceremony, tv broadcast, new lies about why not letting them on their program, storm of controversity just like against KBS… It would be totally transparent if it happens again, they can’t risk it. So they try to do everything in their power to prevent this.
This is maddening…
where did you heard this?
isn’t the korean fans doing anything about this if that was the case?
I didn’t heard it anywhere. Just my thoughts.
@vik720
Sure, we’ve become sensitized to stations doing things to keep the guys banned. This situation though is not directly organized by the station (SBS). For me this is a sign that anything that comes across on FB will be suspect. FB is notorious for being open to hacking. Hacking is the only way this kind of manipulation can occur. Internal system changes cannot be done by constant van voting. A hacking program made to switch and allow many votes to come into the system at certain times, goes way beyong using multiple FB accounts and simply sitting at the pc and refreshing. That’s labor intensive effort. The other is down right cheating. This has to be addressed. Since it looks as if it happened before, someone has to pick up the banner and say NO MORE.
umm I think I would have to disagree with you on this. That is a bit too much of speculation and I do blame the Eels for this because they shouldn’t concoct some crazy ass theory that we rigged the vote to make them look bad. I mean, to be honest, we don’t even care about how other fandoms look so why would we care about the Eels (weird name btw)? I think they are just getting a bit too presumptious about themselves and employing really dumb tactics to place the blame on us.
It’s not the regular, simple fans doing this, that’s for sure. Many fans said (not only JYJ fans but others too) that they voted on their favorit and it later appeared as votes for JGS. I think every one of us met already with links that were not working properly… The picture or link displayed something totally different what was under the link. You know what I mean? You wanted to download the four parts of Morning Show with JYJ and all four links led you to Part one… The name of the mediafire file is the same so you won’t download it but what will you do if there’s no link just a button to click? How will you notice if every button leads to the same link? The concept is the same. You have a display picture linked to different links. Or to the same link….. And that’s an inside-job. Just change the links few times a day… Maybe I’m paranoid but if I were the management of the contest, it would be highly inconvenient for me if a band whom *somebody* desperately wants to sweep under the carpet wins an award without any difficulities – even more so that the drama isn’t even new but still popular as hell – well, I don’t know. I’d be desperate. 🙂
That doesn’t mean I’m saying the Eels didn’t cheat, maybe they did but we don’t know that for sure. What we know for sure is that in the Korean entertainment business they do everything in their power to stop JYJ, so I’m more prone to believe that version. They were the ones who gave me reason themselves to believe they are guilty.
^ we do know that for sure
SOME eels a significant number DID cheat
whether it is EELS cheating + inside job i dont know
But EELS DID cheat.
@JUNO
That’s true.
Just like Cassies when they had the opportunity. I could go back and quote how many times I’ve read instructions about how to by-pass the system… These kind of things are not done *en masse* only by a couple of fans every time or there would be hundreds of thousands of votes. I don’t think we should condemn a whole fandom just because of 150 overzealous girls because then everybody should say the same about our fandom.
But I still think it’s way easier to be done from the inside than hacking a software.
“it’s about not letting yoochun & JYJ win”. i think you are right.
“it’s about not letting yoochun & JYJ win”.i think you’re right.
No matter what I want 유천 as the best actor because he is ! >”<
Poor eels they have to cheat to win ! :p
I want found you to win so much because with that they can perform on TV T_T
That is terrible and extremely unfair!!!! There is obviously something going on and it’s being planned/rigged. >_< I wish I could vote more but I already voted.
GAH!
Let’s help JYJ on this poll:
東方神起 51.96%
JYJ 48.04%
Please vote for JYJ, one vote per IP address only, invite friends to vote
http://kpopn.com/2011/08/12/77941/
=============================
even if we delete cookies. we still can vote once?
I tried (delete cookies), and it seems worked (can dload more than once)…
this is a google translation of the mechanics:
“Kpopn ideal cup in order to get the most fair and objective results, not duplicate voting Oh! (Each an IP can only vote once.)
After the first ballot, the message that appears is “Thank you for your vote!”, Which means you just vote success, added to the calculation of.
If the refresh and vote again, the message shown above is “Thank you, your vote has been joined calculated.” That you have voted, this would not be included in the calculation.
So after you refresh the number of votes will not be included in the calculation.
*so we can vote as many as we can but they only count one vote per IP, the others are rejected
i got this from fb!! check it out!! http://i.imgur.com/KH79z.jpg
the “Yoochuns fans know we cheated” thing right?
Spread it on Twitter
Excuse me, I can’t read it
*sad*
ooh..sorry!! it’s a conversation between eels..basically they are saying that yoochun’s fans know we cheated..or something along that lines..^^
can you give us the facebook acc link? so they really cheat. what a shame :s
@ JP..sorry but i meant i got the link for that cut from fb..you might be able to get the original link from the person who posted it though..
you know i’m starting to doubt something..alot of eels are saying something about our ip addresses being the ones that cast the huge amount of votes..even goin as far as to ask en.korea to check the ip’s..i don’t think its possible to hack/use other ppl ip adds to vote..but now i’m confused..coz i know no way in hell anyone of us were gonna waste our time voting fof JGS..
our votes DID got to JGS remember
but the spikes were pure automated voting that JGS fans did
Dont worry about it.
also how do THEY know which IP voted?
they are crazy and they dont want to blame their own fandom
i dont think they believe KHJ shouldve gotten it last year either
the sida should takes account which drama has the highest rating, the most popular ost in the chart or portal site and even the actor / actress chosen in the other award as the best. funny…..eh..my friends who are fans of jgs found the drama mme is not interesting at all, so how can it be the best….
If that was the case, then I felt bad for JGS and embarass to be his fans. I mean winning like that is just shameful. I hope the officials sort that out.
omg i’m glad there’s finally some evidence! cuz there is no way there are more JGS fans than JYJ..
WOW and I adore JGS.
Why his fans have to be that way?
as a JGS fan I feel bad.
I voted for Yoochun and JYJ though
(cause I was longer fan of theirs plus I just believe they deserve it more)
And I only voted honestly no extra accounts or anything. Gosh…cheaters never win to me.
Shame. These chart evidences you can’t deny it. Who in one minute gets 4k votes? What?
Five in the morning? Where all you guys come from?
Seriously. If theses votes are true where were these fans 20 days ago? Why wasn’t JGS
always FIRST if he had this many honest fans? He just NOW being first which tells me someone is cheating.
Can’t deny this evidence. Who made the charts? Thank you for this.
I like JGS too.
I’m curious to see how this mess will end.
If this is indeed an honest man, he should refuse the award. It could damage its image as a good guy.
Otherwise, I’ll never be able to look at him through the same eyes as before and JGS can hold on to the craziest fans who make him topping the charts with dirty and disonest ways.
*dishonest*
Fuck! I really hate cheaters! I know this not JGSK faults, but still it’s HURT! Cheaters don’t deserve to win!!!!! I voted for Yoochun n JYJ with my fb account and my mom’s , but the vote went to him! What the hell??
how about this link? http://kr.promotion.yahoo.com/sda2011/vote_actor_en.html
is this link the same with the facebook one? in this one yoochun is leading
What is the difference between the votes from yahoo and the votes from facebook? is it for the same award?
The yahoo one can accept votes from koreans living in Korea,but FB one doesnt. FB one only for Internationals.
No, both accepts votes from international fans. You just have to select english for the Yahoo account to be able to read the instructions and vote in english.
i m x sure…is it d same or different~ If it’s different, something must b done 2 make a stop to this mess Jang Geun Seuk’s fans hv caused. It wld b great, if it’s d same…i means dat smthng hv been done 2 to return the transferred votes to where it rightfully belongs ^^
All I can say is voting for the Korea.com via facebook is more important than the yahoo. But Yoochun still can get ‘Yahoo People’s Choice’ award if he win for the yahoo
does anyone know if this legit
or a way to vote through twitter
JGS fans were spreadingit

i don’t know what to say anymore.. so sad and so disappointed coz i’ve been voting for yuchun since the 1st day of this seoul drama awards..why are we always betrayed. sigh*
If these awards are unfair & can be manipulated by cheaters & organizers can’t take action, then shame it’s useless 😦

seems like everything associated with Korea organizations is ambiguous….
this happened to me too… i found out about it last friday. I voted all SKK nominees a month ago and been seeing the results fair w/o any problem.. but not until last friday… i was so shocked that the my best actor marked with red strip is JGS and NOT Yoochun… up until now. I even commented on korea.com FB. I even told this to JYJ PH last friday… and during that night still.. I was monitoring the results and refreshes the page every now and then and saw that Mary OST has been catching up by 100-1000 votes in just a matter of seconds. Too bad i wasn’t able to screen cap it…. Coz, i thought that time it’s still normal… and thought there’s a lag in the system and I was the only one experiencing it but not until Saturday where others started to notice their votes went to JGS, Mary and BUS Ost…Even those who voted Secret Garden went to the same place where JGS is….. and rumor of votes and screencaps of cheating from chinese fansite of JGS were spreading on twitter.
I seriously think korea.com voting system has been hacked. and others were really using illegal programs.
Yoochun’s in all categories is WAY AHEAD JGS from beginning until friday…
Isn’t it very ODD that votes started to shift from one category to another??? first the best OST… then… the best DRAMA… then the best ACTOR…. …. Korea.com SDA voting system SUCKS. they’re incompetent and irresponsible.
Since i personally experience it… I totally believe in this cheating phenomenon. Shame on them! WHOEVER IS BEHIND THIS… wait for your KARMA….
Please you can’t just let that go easily and wai for KARMA. please people with the switched votes are the STRONGEST VOICES to complain.. you have to complain everywhere.. and all fans that experienced the same situation as well.. they should not get away with that not again..
I don’t believe if jgs fans doing all of this alone. There must be some back up from the organizer! Did you think the orgnizer didn’t notice what actually happening? And this happened not only once but twice!
All korea industry are a bullshit! What the points for us to voting if the results are absolute! I even makes 8 facebook account and its just a waste! I’m sad for jyj and yoochun! This is the only chance to make them appear on tv
esto es ridiculamente espantoso, asqueroso, me faltan palabras para describirlos, la mentira es el peor pecado del mundo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
girls i really can’t belive what’s happening
… i’m very very vvvvvvvvvvvvvery
Furious
I already “unlike” the Korea.com page. Such a waste of time spending so much time participating in their SDA poll.
I am so desperate.. I am angry right now but can’t do anything.. This makes me going crazy.. So all my votes for Chun go to JKS instead??? What a shame! I think JKS won’t be happy if he wins the poll this way..
Hallo everyone. Hajimemashite. This is my first comment after all this time become a silent reader. To be honest, i’m not a huge fan of k-pop because I have a very high standard regarding to the music. But, JYJ and their former group is the exceptional. I love them because of their voices. Related to this SDA things, I want to say, let it go girls. Take it easy…no matter what happen, deep in your heart, JYJ is the real winner. You don’t need a stupid vote system to prove that. If you feel sad, just look at JYJ picture or chunnalisa…They look so happy. It seems that they don’t think about the vote madness or korean entertainment madness….Just wait and see..Time will prove that JYJ is the best. And for the jgs a.k.a the mascara boy (my friends always call him like that), if you smart enough…hopefully you realize what happening…. Last but not least, for JYJ and their fans be happy, keep happy and always happy no matter what happen… JYJ is so lucky to have all of you as their fans….Ganbatte kudasai
I agree.
Results of any polls do not determine how much we love JYJ and how awesome they are.
I think most of us are upset coz this may represent a chance where JYJ can get on Korean national TV. (Which they have been blocked for so long…)
Plus the fact that the other side cheated doesn’t help.
We will be gracious if we lost provided the fight is fair and square.
But using underhand means? Those idiots better not mess with the wrong fandom!!!
Thank you… i ussually dont think about win and lost to much…just when become JYJ fan, look at the boys went though to much painfull time. too many unfair thing, eps how much they love stand on the stage and every thing they try very hard to make happen..that why we want to try our best to help their dream…anyway like someone said..we will have other doors if we not give up!!!^______^
Thank you for your words.
^_^
Nope! If you let it go once, it will happen again. You’ll become the general underdog: Broadcast companies can do whatever they like to JYJ and JYJfans will just let it go and not raise their voice to the injustice, other fandoms can just get up and cheat and stomp over JYJ related stuff inorder to get their idols to the top because they know that JYJfans “will just let it go”. Winners are fighters(not by violence), and we fight only the good fights.
Hi all. Do you remember what yoochun said in the Baeksang Awards. If I’m not mistaken, he said: a lot of obstacles make him stronger. I believe he is. I believe jyj is stronger than we think. I believe their fans as stronger as jyj also. The point of let it go, is don’t feel bother about it. There’s a lot of chances for JYJ out there. For me personally, they are three of the most talented people in k-pop world. With the fully support from extraordinary fans like all of you, I believe they will always find another way to give their best talent to the world and make those haters world tumbling down. I can’t hardly wait to see it. Just wait and see, girls…JYJ rules…. ^—^
This comments come from me: Yuya, a true music lover. I don’t need handsome or beautiful face, stupid video teaser, stupid outfit, stupid haircut, or any other stupid things. I only need great voices, great talent and great personalities.
JYJ is a great musician with a great talents
JYJ is a great musician with a great personalities
JYJ is a great musician with a great fans
JYJ fans is a great fans with a great JYJ
Oyasuminasai minna san…
(cause it’s midnight here) 🙂
I knew it the real winner of Yahoo in the awards was Kim Hyun Joong , and this test, can not be the same to happen with Jang Geun Suk in less than a year, poor his fans just leave it to shame
It is a downright dirty shame when we all know who the real winners are in the SDA. If it’s any consolation … our Yoochun has been voted as Yahoo’s People Choice for Best Actor.

As I was reading all the comments above and on SIDA FB page, I feel so helpless. We are all angry and furious but hobody from SIDA or korea.com ever replied to us. Furthermore, delusional people are everywhere. I’m also confuse which one is the correct voting counts, is it the one under their fb page or on yahoo?
If anybody received/read a somewhat a reply from so-called SIDA authorities, please update us. I feel like flooding comments on their sites but dont want to be blocked for spamming. I still have to vote for YC and JYJ to the very end!
Stay strong everyone!
How do you check to see what your vote was on facebook? I want to make sure that mine was registered correctly.
well, when you go to the voting page, there should be a red sticker which says ‘voted’ on your choice ^^
Dear to all JYJ families . . .
This vote cheat already goin over our head for couple days . . . u know even i felt hurt too watching my JYJ got cheated but like JYJ song ” Let it go . . why dont u let it go ” , i know u guys dont want this kind matter ever happen again n for that we can file a complaint but never let this cheater matter make our JYJ bad image in the end , i know we desperate want to see then on TV but i think as long as JYJ happy even when they cant make appereance in TV than we must happy too . . . . take a lesson from JYJ . . they always be positive no matter what obstacle they must face . . n i think JYJ will sad if they know we’re all upset bcoz this whole vote cheater bcoz we all know JYJ dont need award to proove that they are the best . . . let JYJ be winner in fans heart n mind . . thats more precious for JYJ than bunch awards from Dirty K-Pop . . . .
And I believe in karma . . . JYJ are walk in good road n eventhough they face soooooooo many obstacle but they always find a way to communicate wid fans . . dont u think even God love them . . . . n God always give hard obstacle to human God most love . . . n from what i know JYJ never talk bad bout people eventhough lot peoples talk bad bout them, thats what i called a men with good n big heart , never fight evil wid evil bcoz in the end both are evil . . . lets learn from JYJ to become better person.
So guyzzzz . . . . let be positive n hav big heart . . . no matter happen we always be JYJ side n i know JYJ know that too . . .
And bout JGS . . . i never like him too much because im indeedn ard to like artist / singer . . n the reason i like JYJ because they are simply the best . . . the best from best . . . . n i think deep in JGS heart he feel really shame but what we can say ? , may be it happen oppsite JYJ will refuse the award bcoz JYJ hav guts . . . . in the dirty k-pop i see only JYJ who really hav guts to tell what they think, to tell what they want n what they dont want n not let other people tell them what to do anymore . . . that what i call REAL MEN . .
JYJ Fighting . . . .
JAEJOONG Fighting . . .
Yoochun Fighting . . .
JUNSU Fighting . . . .
JYJ FAMILIES Fighting . . . . .
This is such a nonsense! I am really disappointed, cheaters. These votes should be canceled!
I can’t say more with Koea.com… what’s the point of crying and stumping feet (I’ve said my piece of mind to them)… they wouldn’t correct it… for them the show will go on no matter what… so for me – little, one old me… Just delete and unlike the site and will not follow them… I wouldn’t even dream of looking for them, since they’ve lost the credibility of being fair…
Life has to move on… still supporting JYJ… and whatever they endorse I’ll support it… 🙂
Telzone grandma called SIDA and conversed (Q/A):
1. Are you intending to drag this matter over time and go ahead with award ceremony like last year? / No, not at all
2. Did you investigate all the evidences provided by PYC’s fans? / Yes, we are investigating.
3. Are you aware this matter can be directed to Cyber police that can disclose the truth soon enough? / Yes, we are
4. Will you give the award to JKS based on high score even if all the evidences are proved to be true? / No, we won’t.
Its funny…I watched SKKS and Mary…before I ever knew who JYJ were or ever heard their music. I didn’t know that Yuchun was a newbie actor because I couldn’t tell from the performance. Mary was cute, sometimes funny, but mostly irritating because the characters were fairly one dimensional and hard to relate to. SKKS on the other hand, I immediately fell in love with, great story, great characters, great acting, and normally I find Korean drama OSTs to be kind of ridiculous musically but I thought SKKS OST was just perfectly fitting for the drama. I especially liked that the female lead character wasn’t a simpering girl, worried only about the matters of the heart and letting the object of her affection trample all over her like Mary did.
So as someone who had no prior bias while viewing the two dramas, it is no question that SKKS was a superior drama all around. I know that is just my opinion. But it is an opinion shared by many. I simply don’t understand all the fan warring that goes on in this sort of thing and underhandedness of the Korean entertainment industry. Is it so serious for Yuchun to win? Will people die if he does? Will the entire economy of Korea collapse because he gets the title?
I love Korea, it is my birth country and I always root for them to become more progressive, to become a stronger figure internationally. But even I am heartsick over this. Who is at fault, who is to blame, doesn’t much matter now. That fans cannot even trust a simple online voting poll to vote for who or what they favor, it is an insanity. So much drama over something that should bring a smile to your face.
I smiled while I voted for Yuchun and SKKS and JYJ. And I will still smile if they do not fix these irregularities. In the end, they only hurt themselves by doing this. But JYJ, they are untouchable in my heart. They cannot hurt the JYJ that I believe in, the JYJ that I love, the JYJ that I know, no matter the outcome, will continue giving us great music, great dramas, great musicals and BE great people that will always have our deepest love and respect.
Thanks…love what you said.
Hopefully the organizers learned their lesson. If they cannot make online voting secure and accurate, they should never attempt this again.
Until they resolve this matter, I have “unlike” every page associated with them. Maybe they will notice if enough people “unlike”.
i just drop by to say i love you and your comment!
very well said my friend!
luv luv this comment
A+++
great comment!
In case anyone need the info, I have screencapped a number of pages from Chinese blog sites the last few days, many now deleted. They contain various voting tutorials, ongoing troubleshooting, evidence of mass creation/collection of email addresses and FB accounts, and nonstop online voting by those blog members. I couldn’t find anything on electronic vote swiping or automated voting though.
email them to jyj3 admin
and SDA
create a topic on FB and alert korea.com that you have sent it in?
Good Work.
Already sent my findings to SDA a couple days ago, individually addressed to all seven officials listed with email addresses on the main SDA site.
I only sent links then, so some are now dead if they just now see my emails. I don’t know if I should send all the screen caps to them…too much and too confusing, and all in Chinese. I will see if I can organize them, somehow.
Love love love what u have said. Its a good news to me.You are an angel. I am already an ajhumma but i so love Yoochun and jyj. I, too also unlike the korea.com page because of that mess.
voting is done and the poll is now closed right? Why haven’t they announced the winner yet? When do we know who won? I would like to see how JGS accept the awards if he did win. Counting the best actor, ost, and drama series… he would at least go up 3x. I wonder if he would have the face to go up on stage knowing he isn’t the rightful winner. Also, why hasn’t this issue receive any media coverage? what’s happening in sk right now?
i don’t know what to say about this but if JGS wins I’m going to be super pissed.
if no action taken by the sda or korea prom.. ……fans esp. i-fans again feel cheated & angry by what had happened. the impression left is not a good one………. that’s korea………..
feel sorry for our boys who are trying very hard to promote their beloved country. we know that JYJ are STILL THE BEST. Keep lovin & support them.
