Actor Kim Seon-ho is currently running first in the popular vote of '2021 Asia Artist Awards' despite the controversy over his personal life.

As of 7:10pm on the October 24, Kim Seon-ho is currently ranked first in the male actor category in the U+Idol Live Popularity Award voting held at the '2021 Asia Artist Awards'.

Kim Seon-ho, who currently receives 77,289 votes, maintains the lead with a difference of 36,069 votes from second-placed Cha Eun-woo.

The '2021 Asia Artist Awards', which will be held on December 2nd, selects winners based on big data targeting global fans and proceeds with a fairer and more transparent award. In particular, the ranking of the artists who have been active this year is decided by the popularity vote of the fans, and the popularity award is awarded to the artist who finished first in each category.

Voting is divided into 1st and 2nd rounds, and you can vote on the website.

The first round of voting begins on the October 22nd and runs until 11:59 pm on the 5th of November. Candidates for the second round of voting for each category are selected according to the number of votes collected, and the star with the most votes will be awarded Popularity Award at the AAA Awards according to the second round of voting held from early November to November 15.

Despite the controversy over his personal life, Kim Seon-ho is maintaining the first place in the Popularity Award in the Male Actor category.

On the other hand, last October 17, on an online community, an article titled 'I will expose the dual and shameless reality of popular actor K' was posted. Person A, who posted the post, claimed that she had been in a relationship with Actor K, and that Actor K encouraged an abortion and unilaterally announced the breakup.

Netizens who saw this speculated that Actor K was Kim Seon-ho based on the contents of the post.

As the controversy grew out of control, Kim Seon-ho made a statement through his agency. He did not specifically mention the allegations of abortion, but he said, "I met her with good feelings. In the process, I hurt her with my negligence and thoughtless actions."

After that, it was reported that Kim Seon Ho and Ms. A had an apology conversation, and the case was closed.

2PM’s Lee Junho has officially ended his 17-year journey with JYP Entertainment, and fans can’t stop talking about his touching farewell gesture.

On April 15, photos began circulating online showing the special gift Junho prepared for all the JYP staff before officially leaving the agency.

In the photo, a heartfelt banner from Junho reads, “To the JYP family, I was happy because we were together. Thank you sincerely. From Lee Junho.”

Along with this message, Junho set up a cheesecake station at the company’s café — with a slice for each employee to take and enjoy.

That day marked Junho’s official departure from the company he first joined as a trainee, spending nearly two decades growing as a singer, actor, and all-around star.

Back on March 20, JYP had already announced the contract ending, saying, “After deep discussions, both sides have decided not to renew the contract. We sincerely thank Lee Junho for being part of the company’s growth and journey over the past 17 years.”

Junho also shared a warm message through the agency, “Thank you sincerely for the support given to me over the past 17 years. I will move forward while cherishing the relationships and support we’ve built during this long time together.”

Even though he’s officially left the agency, Junho’s activities in Japan will still be handled by JYP. “We will continue to manage his activities in Japan and will actively support future collaborations as needed,” the agency stated.

This sweet gesture isn’t the only thing that showed Junho’s character recently. On March 27, he donated 100 million KRW (around $75,000 USD) to World Vision, requesting that the funds go to support children and residents affected by the devastating wildfires in Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk.

Fans are now looking forward to Junho’s next chapter, with his appearances in Netflix’s new series “Cashero” and tvN’s “Typhoon Trading Company” lined up for this year.

From heartfelt goodbyes to generous donations, Junho is showing the world that he’s not just a talented artist — but also a genuinely kind soul.
