Congratulations to the winners of the '12th Korean Music Awards' on February 26 at the Mapo Art Center!

At this event, Lee Seung Hwan was chosen as the 'Artist of the Year' to which he responded, "I feel like what was supposed to come has arrived.  This was the moment I've waited for this year."

For the netizens' pick, Jay Park won in the male solo portion, INFINITE won group portion, and HA:TFELT won the female solo portion!  She said, "This is honestly my first award since promoting as HA:TFELT.  Today is my first time receiving an award by myself since my debut, which I knew coming here, but I was still nervous.  This is an award with deep meaning for me.  I thank the fans who voted and thanks the people who've endured hardships working with me and the people who've supported me.  I will work even harder in order to return next year."
