Jung Seojoo Secures First Place with 64,214 Votes
On the last day of June 2025, the Netizen Awards for Female Artist became a fierce battleground of fan energy — and Jung Seojoo emerged as the undisputed champion. As of 5:41 p.m. on June 30, Jung held a commanding lead with 64,214 votes (48.0%), far ahead of second-place contestant My Jin, who received 19,941 votes.
Steady Rise Fueled by Loyal Fandom
From the very start of June, Jung Seojoo led the race with an unshakable momentum. Her rapid early voting surge past 10,000 and then 20,000 votes eventually transitioned into a steady stream, highlighting the commitment and unity of her fan base. Her emotional track, “A Handwritten Letter”, resonated deeply with listeners, strengthening bonds between the singer and her supporters and driving continued voting engagement throughout the month.
Fierce Late-Challenge from Fellow Artists
Close behind her, singers My Jin (14.9%), Bin Yeseo (13.7%), and Eun Ga-eun (5.6%) made valiant efforts to close the gap in the final hours. Bolstered by their dedicated fanbases, each artist showed notable rebounds during the later voting stages and kept the competition dynamic. While none managed to overtake Jung Seojoo, their presence reinforced the spirited and engaged atmosphere around this month’s awards.
A Milestone in the “Jung Seojoo Era”
Following a strong showing in May, Jung Seojoo’s back-to-back first-place finishes hint at a larger cultural moment. Though she performs in the trot genre — a sentimental Korean music style — Jung’s broad emotional appeal, exquisite stage presence, and interactive connection with fans have turned her into more than just a popular idol. She now stands as a cultural icon of deep fan involvement and genre-transcending appeal, with industry watchers predicting continued dominance in future polls.
