BLACKPINK fans are currently protesting the '2020 APAN Awards'.
The protest was held after the 'APAN Awards 2020' announced a list of artists who had won the Top 10 or Bonsang awards.
Various K-Pop idols who have won the Bonsang award are Kang Daniel, The Boyz, MONSTA X, BTS, SEVENTEEN, IZ * ONE, Lim Young Woong, GOT7, NCT 127, and TWICE.
Suddenly, many BLINKs felt that they did not accept it, because BLACKPINK did not win the Bonsang award and said 'APAN Awards 2020' had acted fraudulently.
Fans then revealed various evidences why BLACKPINK deserved the Bonsang award, as BLACKPINK was the only girl group included in the Top 10 voting for the 'APAN Awards 2020', then BLACKPINK managed to sell 1,531,297 physical albums and 1,218 digital sales. 331,531 points
As a form of protest, BLINKs all over the world flocked to trending on Twitter by writing the phrase 'APAN RIGGED AWARD SHOW'.
When this news was published, 'APAN RIGGED AWARD SHOW' has already received more than 466 thousand tweets and is ranked 3rd on the trending list of Indonesian Twitter topics. (www.kpopchart.net)
