Quiet Contenders in the Spotlight
In the 2025 July Netizen Awards, five actresses—Hyeri, Hong Hwa-yeon, Roh Jeong-eui, Kim Da-mi, and Cho Yi-hyun—are catching eyes from the bottom tier of the Female Acting category. Though currently ranked low, these stars might be poised for a dramatic comeback.
What the Rankings Reveal
As of July 10 at 1:04 PM, Hyeri stands at 16th place with 91 votes (0.5%), showing a slower start than expected. She previously stole the spotlight by debuting at No. 1 in May’s rankings, proving how one passionate fan push can rewrite the leaderboard. Her fans may just be waiting for the right moment to rally once more.
Following Hyeri are Hong Hwa-yeon (17th, 35 votes), Roh Jeong-eui (18th, 31 votes), Kim Da-mi (19th, 26 votes), and Cho Yi-hyun (20th, 24 votes). While their current rankings may seem underwhelming, each actress has captivated audiences with their standout performances in K-dramas and films, building solid fanbases quietly but steadily.
Why a Comeback Is Possible
These actresses maintain strong viewer appeal and dedicated supporters, particularly within the K-drama fan community. The Netizen Awards’ open voting structure means that even just one week of focused fan effort can dramatically shift a contender’s position.
The “stage” is already set. This moment, while quiet, could be the golden hour when fans gather to shift the tide. The current standings reflect only where things are now—not where they could go.
A Click Away From a Turnaround
There’s still plenty of time left in July. Whether it’s a silent rebellion, an unexpected surge, or a surprise leap to the top, one fan vote could make all the difference. When the names of these five actresses start climbing the rankings, it could be a direct result of today’s heartfelt clicks.
Because in the world of fan voting, underdogs often shine the brightest—thanks to the power of focused fandom.
