Taeyang nominated for 3 awards at 2010 Mnet Asian Music Awards


Fresh off the press, the official list of nominee’s for the 2010 Mnet Asian Music Awards has been released with Taeyang bagging 3 Nominations. He has been nominated for:

Male Singer Award
: PSY, Se7en, Rain, Taeyang, Wheesung

Best Music Video Picture
2NE1 – “Can’t Nobody”
Epik High – “Run”
UV – “Sorry I Can’t Be Cool”
Ga-In – “Can’t Turn Back”
Taeyang – “I’ll Be There”

Best Dance Performance – Solo
Narsha – “Bbiri Bbabba”
Rain – “The Song That’ll Hold YOu Back”
Lee Hyori – “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang”
Taeyang – “I’ll be There”
Hyuna – “Change”

He’s up against some strong contenders and some new names so it’ll be interesting to see how this pans out. I don’t want to get my hopes up, since the last time I was very disappointed he didn’t get any of the major awards for LOAM. Though awards don’t make or break an artist, I do like to see him get recognition in the form of an award once in a while =)

  1. HOLY! i would want him to win so much!
    if only MAMA is like GRAMMYS where a panel reviews the nominees rather than selecting a winner through sales and popularity.
    i would like him to win the BEST MALE SINGER award although he’s up against strong competitors.

  2. this is going to be a toughy! sending out much love and support! it doesn’t matter if he wins but it would be nice.

  3. Ooo!! Those are some pretty tough artists he is up against! Both new and old. 😉

    I would love YB to win, the boy deserves a good award like this once in a while, even if he does say these trophies and things don’t matter… It’ll at least be a memoir of all the hard work and recognition that is WAY overdue for this young man. :))

    (I think I have a habit of writing run-on sentences and fragments… but anyway)

    Out of the three I would love him to win best dance or best singer…. I really can’t choose which he deserves more, because to me he is great in both. (LOL, very biased) Though I think he’ll have a better chance at dance? that’s just my opinion, I dunno… I think he’s up against some really good singers in the best singer category…

    Not that I think his singing is bad, no way… He’s really improved from his solo debut, and I’m really really proud of it. In my eyes he’ll always be the best singer because of his ability to express such ‘raw’ emotions when he sings even when live, that’s hard to find… But maybe the judges will be looking for something different? Anyway… moving on…

    I think he has a better chance in dancing just because the choreography for it is DOPE…. and something that the Korean music industry hasn’t tried out yet… plus he always makes sure each move is spot on and detailed…

    I love the MV for IBT, but I think the credit for this award is not exactly to the artist, but to the director and producer etc. of the MV.. thus to me it doesn’t really matter to me who wins that award…

    BUT I’d be happy if YB won any of the three, even if he didn’t, hey, being nominated already means something. 🙂

  4. I think he might have a chance for best male singer award… but I’m not sure about the rest. I’d like him to win all three of course if possible but if not i don’t think it matters either since the other two of the categories he is nominated in are not much of a big deal. Hm.. but i’d like him to win best dance category as well. i’ve always thought IBT performances worth the dance awards out there but Hyori’s Choreo is a fave one in Korea… tough tough tough…

  5. Ahhh….he’s up against some solid competition for each category! I really hope he wins at least one. I know he doesn’t care about winning but it would still be nice for him to get some recognition in Korea every once in a while.

    On the other hand, does this mean that he’ll possibly be performing? I’d actually rather see that than a win TBH. Suffering from YB withdrawal here!!!

    1. I’m pretty sure he will be performing…since Big Bang are coming back and everything…so he’ll be there anyway. They tend to perform at MAMA i hope its some amazing stage. The orchestra Lies when Big Bang clean sweeped that year was such an amazing performance

      1. IKR? I’m not even that big of a fan of Lies but I have to admit that that performance just totally killed it. That performance will go in history as one of the best.

      1. to Daisy
        I have some question?
        Do you have e-mail/ msn / facebook or twitter which I can connect and talk with you ?
        plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! it’s important!

  6. Honestly i dont see him winning best Male solo because of Rain. Not to say Rain is a better artist…..but its Rain all the fan girls love him i think he will win based on popularity. I think he might have a chance with dance and MV. Although MV really hasn’t got much to do with him.

    Hopefully he wins one of the big awards (daesung) unlikely but i hope he does….

  7. it wont send me the authenic no to me i checked span inbox everywhere i cant find it hmm it wont send so i can confirm?

    1. If it’s not in your span or in your inbox, then it must means that you’re email doesn’t accept it. For instance, I tried using my school email account but I couldn’t find it. So, I decided to use my Gmail and it worked.

    1. To vote, click on one of the box w/ a specific categories. When you click it, it will open a window with names to choose. You HAVE to vote for an artist for every category. When you’re done, you close the small window. The people that you choose will appear on each box. For instance, box 1 is :Best New Male Artist: Seo In Gook. So, when you see the name of the artists, it confirm that you have voted for him. Then there is a big red button and click on that to send in your vote. If you still don’t understand, please write down your email and I’ll do a picture tutorial to help you. ^^

        1. Sorry, I have no clue on Korean Standard Time.
          Since I live in California, USA, my plan is to vote every night. So, I think that would be in the morning of Korea. I guess you vote each day the same/near time you have voted (if you understand what I mean).

        2. you can vote once a day from 28 october until 21 november 1800 korea time. lets all devote each day to voting for this man in all the categories we can vote him in.

  8. i cant get the verification email. Everytime i type in my email the confirmation thing doesn’t light up or anything. and ive tried different emails >=/

  9. HELP?
    i can’t create an account and its not the confirmation email issue.
    sooo, when i type in all my personal information and everything, i press “save” and this box shows up with these weird letters my computer apparently cannot process so they come out like these letters: รัตนาภรณ์ จำปานา

    !?!?!? what am i doing wrong!?

    1. – try to change your id several times untill it’s available
      – your password cant contain your id and it has to include both letters and numbers
      If you still cant create your account, you can email me your id, password and email. I’ll try to help you

  10. The one thing that confused me is that IBT is the song that’s being recognized and not INAG which I don’t understand. INAG was more popular and was also the title track of the whole album. IBT was a follow up song. I’m annoyed by it to be honest.

  11. i voted for the first time yesterday. i’m trying to vote now, but somehow the setup isn’t like yesterday’s? i log in and instead of a voting page, i get the 2010 MAMA My choice thing. does this mean i cnt vote today?

    1. mizz_julie@twitter from 21BANGS

      when you log in & click “VOTING START”..then you see the artists that you have previously voted for right? Then u can just automatically click “Vote for 2010 Mnet Asian Music Awards” button. if they lead you to a category and you still want to vote for taeyang, then just still click his name.

      If you don’t want to change any of the votes just click vote.

  12. to Daisy
    I have some question?
    Do you have e-mail/ msn / facebook or twitter which I can connect and talk to you????!!!!
    plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! it’s important!

  13. Let’s work hard to vote for him! I know he’s up against some tough competition, and maybe he won’t win any, but still, it’ll be nice to show everyone else that he’s still a competitor! I’ve registered for 10 accounts (there is no limit on # of accounts per email, so I signed up for 10 accounts on my email, lol) And voting is super easy once you do it cuz you don’t even have to click your choices again, since it’s all automatic!!! Let’s show the power of international TY fans. ^______^

    1. Yes! agree!
      Let’s show the power of international Taeyang fans.
      I think we needs more 1000 fans to create 10 users per 1 person and vote 10 times a day so we’ll get more 10,000 votes per day for Taeyang of each catagories so Taeyang can win and will be no.1.
      anyway we don’t give up because the score of voting will use about 20%
      but we have to show our international love for Taeyang… his name should be number 1.
      I think many of his internation fans still don’t know about the voting so we should do a lot promote in youtube or facebook…. and many people can’t vote because they don’t know how to vote because the voting in Mnet is complex…so we need to promote about the voting and how to vote and register at Mnet.

  14. He’s up against strong contenders indeed. I do hope he wins at least one…better though if three. I’ll include it in my prayers… Good luck, young bae!

  15. Can someone help me register? I keep getting a box with some weird symbols and it send me back to the registration page. my pw is mixed with letters and numbers and doesn’t contain my ID. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong.

  16. i can not vote at all like i signed up like email worked but the password it kept telling me to use english and numbers and i did 6 To 12 it said but it wont let me do anything

  17. I really hope he wins something. Taeyang fans, Where U At? If only all the people who click ‘like’ on his videos would vote for him. Then he would win hands down. ^_^

  18. DO U KNOW HOW TO LET TAEYANG WIN??

    HEHE…I REGISTER 10 GMAIL FOR REGISTER 10 MNET ACCOUNTS..

    PLEASE DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS TO MAKE SURE OUR YONGBAE WIN AT MAMA2010
