A Strategic Silent War in June’s Netizen Awards
On June 27, 2025, the Netizen Awards entered its most critical 72-hour phase. While the rankings may appear stable at a glance, behind the scenes, a quiet but intensive battle is unfolding—with results hanging on razor-thin margins.
Fan Tactics Shift from Emotion to Strategy
Voting patterns have moved beyond emotional support to calculated strategy. Fans are organizing by time zone, casting votes during off-peak hours like late night and early morning to maximize impact. As a result, even shifts of a few hundred votes are disrupting the leaderboard.
Rather than dramatic upsets, the trend in the middle ranks shows a more slow-and-steady approach. Some fandoms are slipping ahead after two or three days of steady effort—almost like a friendly takeover rather than a coup.
Dramatic Face-Off in Actress Category
In the Female Acting category, 15th-ranked Hong Hwayeon and 16th-ranked Jeon Yeo-been are in an intense showdown. The vote gap is minimal, raising anticipation about who will move ahead in the final days of June. Their fierce neck-and-neck battle underscores how no ranking is safe until the very end.
