BonSang winners: We select 10 singers (names in alphabetical order) who are in the music industry for more than 1 year. Newcomers dont qualify for this award.

The calculation method of the DaeSang winner is as follows:
60% from our weekly top 20 chart scores, adjusted for competition, seasonal, and positional factors. Non-original songs (remakes and covered versions) will be excluded from the calculations for the DaeSang award.
20% from album sales figures released by Music Industry Association of Korea (MIAK) from January to November 2005, plus Hanteos weekly sales for December 2005. If a singer releases more than 1 album this year, well use the album with the highest sales for this event.
20% from fan voting thats where your vote comes in.
You can make a difference! Be sure to vote for your favorite singer or who you think deserves to win the Daesang award. I have created a poll above. I am sure you all are familiar with how to vote here. However, please dont abuse your voting rights. One person can only vote once. Should we find out any foul plays, we reserve the right to abandon the results of the voting. The deadline of the voting is December 29, 11:59pm EST.
Because our weekly top 20 charts are using sources from all major music charts in Korea (Chart Korea, MNet M!Countdown, Hanteo weekly sales, SBS Inki Gayo, MTV Korea, various internet charts, and also gasoo appearances on gayo shows), we expect to get an accurate result for this award show.
