What’s the ’10K Club’ and Why It Matters
In South Korea’s online Netizen Awards, crossing 10,000 votes isn’t just a numbers game—it’s a badge of honor. Known as the ’10K Club,’ hitting this benchmark signals an artist’s growing mainstream influence and the power of their fandom. It’s the unofficial threshold where an emerging artist starts getting treated like a top-tier star.
Kim Dahyun’s Current Position
As of 5:28 p.m. on August 27, trot singer Kim Dahyun has secured 5,344 votes (4.8%), placing her at No. 5 in the Best Female Artist category. Leading the pack are Jung Seo-joo (36.6%), My Jin (18.6%), and Bin Yeso (15.8%), while Le Sserafim’s Kazuha recently joined the ’10K Club’ with 10,014 votes—marking a significant feat.
A Crossroads for Kim Dahyun
The question now is: Can Kim Dahyun double her current votes and break into the prestigious club by the end of the month?

If she makes it, this isn’t just a personal milestone—it becomes a fandom-wide celebration.
