Introducing the first annual "allkpop Awards"!

The end of the year is near, and the Korean music industry is abuzz with news of upcoming awards shows that seek to recognize the most outstanding artists in a multitude of categories. As a nod to these important events in the K-pop realm, allkpop has decided to initiate our first ever "allkpop Awards" this year, and we're inviting fans from all over the world to determine the results! That's right - the votes will be 100% determined by international K-pop fans. In order to ensure that the results are achieved in a fair manner, we've established a system in which votes can be submitted once a day per category via Twitter or Facebook. Fans can vote as many times as they like over the course of the awards voting period, but again, only one vote per category per day will be counted. We are aiming to make this an award that accurately represents the opinions of the international K-pop community, so check out the nominees below, and help decide K-pop's best of 2010!
