• Netizens discuss which pair of idols would make the best MCs for "Music Bank"

    Since KBS2's "Music Bank" doesn't have a male MC right now, many K-Pop fans are playing a fun guessing game to try to figure out who will take over as the show's new host.

    Since it was said that IVE's Jang Wonyoung will probably keep being the MC for a while, netizens started thinking of other K-Pop idols who would go well with Jang Wonyoung.

    Mentioned as possible new male MCs were Jooyeon from The Boyz, Seungmin from Stray Kids, Jaemin from NCT, Lim Young Woong, Choo Young Woo, etc.

    Some Netizens say that what people really want to see is:

    There won't be a winner. I think that KBS will choose a new actor from one of their dramas.

    As the new MC, Sullyoon will be pretty as hell. We'll go with two women as MCs.

    The truth is that Im Young Woong-sshi… I think he'll do a good job. Someone joked about using Im Young Woong to find out what people in their 40s and 50s thought, but I think he'll be fine.

    They are very different ages, so it's not like they will mix… Fans won't fight with each other, and… The difference in their heights would be good, too.

    The combination of Huening Kai and Jang Wonyoung was good, and since Jang Wonyoung is tall and well-proportioned, it will be good to have Huening Kai, who is also tall.

    If they choose the 2004 trio Jang Wonyoung, Sullyoon, and Minji as MCs, there will be a lot of talk about it.

    Who do you think will be the next MCs on "Music Bank"?

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
