Fans Go All-In as Netizen Awards Enter Final 72 Hours
Think award shows are all about glitz and red carpets? Think again. The 2025 July Netizen Awards have entered their final phase, and online fandoms are going all out in a digital showdown that’s anything but passive. With just two days left, it’s game on.
Forte di Quattro vs. Liberante: Crossover Showdown
In the race for Best Group, classical crossover titans Forte di Quattro and Liberante are battling it out vote by vote. The difference between first and second place? Fewer than a thousand clicks. Fans are mobilizing in full force, flooding social media with voting guides and countdown schedules.
“We believe in the drama of a final comeback,” says one Liberante fan, sharing tips on maximizing daily votes. On the other side, Forte di Quattro’s fanbase is equally determined. “This win would mean everything—it’s not just a vote, it’s history in the making.”

Not Just Music: From Sports to Cinema
The awards span across entertainment and business, featuring winners in television, film, sports, and even corporate categories. TVN’s Carry the Earth (“선재 업고 튀어”) is currently leading Best Drama, while Jo Yong Pil is topping charts in the Daesang (Grand Star) category, closely followed by Kim Wan Sun.

Fan Power: The Real MVPs
If there’s one takeaway, it’s this: fans are the real driving force. This isn’t about just watching from the sidelines—it’s about refreshing browser tabs and organizing voting shifts. K-pop stans? More like digital campaign managers with spreadsheets and adrenaline.
Who Will Win?
The awards close in less than 48 hours, and nothing is set in stone. Some categories have already flipped rankings once, and with margins razor-thin, anything can happen. As one fan put it, “Now isn’t the time to sleep—it’s time to vote.”
Will your favorite take home the trophy? Only time—and a few thousand fans—will tell.
