1. [+119] The male groups really haven't shined as much as the female groups... I wonder when we're going to get a golden year for boy groups...
2. [+48] All of the rookie girl groups have been fantastic this year. Had they debuted in any other year, they would've each won the rookie award that year. IVE has been dominating this year so it's obvious to anyone that they'll win it. Great work to all of the other groups this year as well!!
3. [+29] It's obviously going to IVE, right? All three of their songs had great reactions
4. [+26] I know NMIXX won't win it but... they're winning it in my heart...
5. [+11] In my heart, it's NMIXX and Xdinary Heroes...
6. [+3] Not even lying, I don't know who any of the boy groups are
7. [+13] Our IZ*ONE has gotten into three of the nominated groups ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ and our Yena is the only soloist, so proud ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ
8. [+5] IVE fighting 🤍🤍
9. [+6] Let's go New Jeans
10. [+6] I guess out of the male groups, it'd have to be Xdinary Heroes

1. [+196] IDLE had a mega hit with 'Tomboy' and a really meaningful comeback with 'Nxde' that has been receiving great critical reviews, I wish they'd win daesang this year ㅜㅜ
2. [+170] Daesang for IDLE let's gooo
3. [+100] As a fan of female groups, it's been a great year...❤️ Truly a golden year for girl groups. New Jeans, Le Sserafim, IDLE, IVE, NMIXX, Black Pink, Aespa, ITZY, Red Velvet, Oh My Girl, Twice, StayC, etc had all such great songs each... I wish them all to win big awards ㅎㅎㅎ
4. [+66] Would be great to have New Jeans win rookie and IVE win daesang
5. [+50] Honestly, the rookie award should go to IVE but I do want IDLE to win something big too. They have more of an artist feel than the other idol groups with a clear message in their songs that impart a positive influence to the public...
6. [+45] Anyone could win the rookie award out of the list and I'd be happy... IVE and New Jeans had great debut songs that won over the public that they'd both have to win if multiple trophies are allowed.
7. [+40] Le Sserafim's new album is damn good
8. [+32] IVE definitely for rookie, 'Tomboy' for song of the year, and Le Sserafim for best performance
9. [+31] Seems like it's to your advantage to have members in your group who have previous debut experience... I wish groups that are truly rookies will be more recognized ❤
- [+14] I agree... IVE and Le Sserafim basically had an entire fanbase with IZ*ONE before they even debuted...
- [+3] Even if they have IZ*ONE members, IVE and Le Sserafim are rare examples of success ㅋㅋ 'Produce 101' has debuted a ton of groups but most of them have not done as well as these two. I won't deny that they benefitted from the IZ*ONE marketing in the beginning but they got this far thanks to their own charms in the end. NMIXX had the JYP brand backing and New Jeans got a ton of attention for being under Min Hee Jin... so it all evens out in the end ㅋㅋ
10. [+28] Daesang - IDLE, rookie - IVE, best performance - Le Sserafim, new hit - New Jeans
