  1. I hope they win….no, they WILL win. Let’s do this ELF~ Let’s make our boys proud. SJ fighting!

  2. SUPER JUNIOR NEEDS TO WIN. T^T <3

  3. I don’t really understand. Even though they aren’t contenders for the digital album award, they still have a chance of winning disk daesang right??

    • I think so too. Mr.Simple sold digital well too

      • Mr. Simple sold much better than bonamana in terms of digital sales, but still way way behind those norminees on the list … normally SM boybands don’t do well digitally, but don’t know why? :-)

        • but we are top 10 in melon which counts digital sales only. there are more than 10 nominees for GDA digital. don’t know whose math is the bad one… lol

      • they did well with mr. simple but not as good as most of those nominated in digital award… its good enough they are nominated in album award, cause that’s what we are aiming for ^^

        • yah your right.. what is the use of music award shows weekly?? MR SIMPLE dominated the chart until the end of their promotion of the album.. And how about top 10 melon digital music award..lol

    • There are 2 daesangs, the digital and the physical sales daesangs, the one we all want SuJu to win is the physical sales one, that is the most important ^^

      But, yeah, they should be nominated for the digital sales one too D:

  4. SUPER JUNIOR NEEDS will WIN i just knew

  5. Yay !!!! SuJu <3

  6. I’m totally rooting for SJ, but damn why are tvxq,jyj and big bang aren’t nominated. that is unfair

    • i agree

      • Totally agree! the biggest contenders are kinda all not nominated? Does this even make sense?

    • Ya I do want to see jyj and big bang dbsk on show they all release album this year I do want to see them on list but I want super junior win

    • I agree. Completely unfair. Cassies are worried SM cheated them out of the nomination…which would be worrisome for SJ as well given past history with the GDAs

      • I know right… I don’t know why but I don’t feel confident at all… I’m worried that it will be the same as last year

      • I agree too! Why DBSK and BigBang are not nominated?? I’m ELF but I think it’s really unfair… :@… I do want to see DBSK on stage… Also I think KYHD was a very good album!

    • Big Bang could only qualify for Digital Album Award though, they only released a Mini-Album, only full album could qualify for GDA album award. Hope I made it clear. TVXQ, JYJ should have been nominated though.

      • That reasoning makes sense, however isn’t Jay Park’s “Take a Deeper Look” and FT Island’s “Return” also mini-albums? How come they got nominated for the album category? x.X

    • I agree No. 2.

      • Actually if u remember TVXQ was released last year and for Big Bang and JYJ i dunno what the case :)

        • No. Keep your head down was released on january 5th. I’m surprised they’re not on the list too.

    • i know right… i would rather compete with Cassies, cos i think TVXQ is really a worthy opponent. I’m sick of SJ Vs SNSD-plus-SM-backing! We want fair games! BRING TVXQ, BB N JYJ TO THE LIST!!! We ELFs want to win number 1 when all the worthy opponents are in the game ^^

    • agree with tvxq. big bang couldnt be nominated for daesung because they released an ep not an album. it was obvious jyj wouldnt be nominated. would gda risk not having a bunch of artists show up or just one? its stupid and one day jyj will take over sm….when super junior did NOT release an album that year. so during the hiatus.

    • JYJ I can understand, they’re mostly blocked within the industry. I’m not sure with the case for Big Bang but they seem not to be a favorite with the GDA, I was surprised they haven’t won a Daesang yet but anyway, they usually don’t attend this event from what i’ve seen.

      But DBSK??? I was really shocked with this one.

  7. We will win.SJ Fighting.
    Kaja Mr. Simple………..

  8. I’m for SuJu all the way…

    but…

    no TVXQ, JYJ or Big Bang?!?!

    Are they even serious?!?! o_O

  9. If SJ wins this year, it would be full of fanwars as well. Other fandoms would say that it wasn’t a fair play because TVXQ, JYJ were not nominated…

    • u are right. even if suju win, people will say “of course they win, there was no tvxq. suju win easy.” and later people will say that SM bias to Suju.
      GDA sould give an explanation about it. and i wont even surprise if i find an article about it later.

  10. seeing this makes me doubt the crdibility of gda i mean the highest selling albums r not nominated so how do we expect a fair judgment from them esp. after the unfairness towards suju last year im gonna say i don’t expect much form this “biggest award ” i’m just gonna do what ever it takes for sj to win coz sj deserve it but i’m gonna cross my fingers that no cheating goes on ><

  11. Last stretch girls!

  12. How come????? if SJ win without competing with strong nominee like TVXQ, JYJ, and Big Bang. Will we satisfy with that???

  13. for the album awards, big bang is definitely not nominated because theirs is just a mini album. in order to be nominated for disk daesang one must have a full length album..

    i just wonder why tvxq and jyj were not included though..

    does this mean that SJ have high chances of winning the Disk daesang?

    • Yes big bag couldnt nominated in Album daesang..
      But their digital are so well they should nominated for digital daesang or at least in Most Popular artist!
      JYJ was still blacklist from the industry..
      What I dont get it is where the hell TVXQ?

  14. it’s weird to see no BB and DBSK…i hope suju will win in the categories they are nominated…
    coz, in the category they are nominated there is also evaluation from the judges, so not 100% based on album sales…but for digital singles award no rating from judges..it’s just weird…i hope that’s will not be the reason why suju will not get the daesang…because of judges evaluation…

    i want it to be fair!!!

  15. SUPER JUNIOR.. Do you guys hear us?? ELF are rooting for you (SUPER JUNIOR). :) WE as ELF will try our BEST to make you guys win.. :)

  16. Btw, to GDA.. PLEASE BE FAIR!!!!

  17. Super Junior will WIN <3

  18. They will win INSHALLAH <3

    • amiin!!!

    • Amieeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnn

    • amiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnn……

  19. I really hate that jyj, dbsk and bb are not there. it just means that the award is no more near fair, wait, they already lost their credibility last year.. but no one listened to us :( anyway, since suju sold the most albums this year (if anyone can break their album sales in 4 days, that is), they better win.. if they dont, then hell will break loose.

  20. seems like GDA really lost their credibilty..pity to Cassie & VIP fellow..
    really worried about GDA judgement this year..
    then should we prepare for another golden disk?..hehe..

  21. unfair form the begining…..i’m totaly elf…but its so strage that big bag n tvxq are not nominated…..and where is KHJ??? why suju not nominated in digital song??????
    i cant believe GDA anymore…….

    • SJ always not doing well in digital song compare to other nominees..

    • KHJ will not be there because he only had mini album, not full album, and his digital is not that good. And Suju not nominated in digital award too because their digital sales not that stellar either.

  22. i don’t understand why SM didn’t make DBSK in GDA..

  23. and it also doesn’t make sense to me that GDA is going to be held in Japan. I thought it’s the biggest award (equivalent to Grammy’s) in Korea? why would they hold such an event in a foreign country rather than in their own country?

    • gda is stupid an working under sm. theres a reason it was pushed back. think about it. what a coinsidence that the week snsd released their album- the week where gda usually cut off their sales- they would announce it would be held in january. mama awards are different. they arent the grand musi awards. thats like holdig the grammys in london just because american pop is popular.

  24. lol I wonder if you guys pure ELF or not, why you should worried about tvxq, big bang, jyj?
    can you guys like K-ELF, they all already stated “Only SJ”, they all don’t care about other boyband besides SJ.
    okay just my opinion.

    • then i’m surprised that u know there’s such boy bands like tvxq, big bang, jyj huh…

    • Do you seriously want SJ to win, with all those controversies? People are now saying its unfair, like “SM wanted SUJU to win, so SM did not submit a nomination for DBSK, SNSD would not attend on the Jan 11, so the award will go directly to SUJU” things like that. Rumors are like flying all over the place. I believe they can win, with competitors like DBSK,JYJ,BB,SNSD etc. ELF want the boys to win with honour, and prove that they can compete with others, unlike what some people from other fandoms are saying.

  25. The award ceremony will be a 2 days event (why???)… SJ will attend on the 11, and GG on 12.. Won’t they announce the Daesang on the last day? this is why I’m worried.. t.t

    • Album Award is on Jan 11, Digital Award is on Jan 12, don’t worry :D

    • If I’m not wrong, the first day(which SuJu is attending) is for the album awards (Eg disk bonsang,disk daesang). The second day is for the digital awards(Eg digital bonsang,digital daesang) :)

  26. why there are no big bang n tvxq n jyj????
    and for digital award why t-ara roly poly not nominated???
    as i know t-ara roly poly have the higher point for digital if i n0t mistaken???
    emmm GDA what are u planning this time???

  27. WAIT HOW DO WE VOTE?!

  28. now we can see how gda lost it credibililty!

  29. 1. No JYJ, Bigbang and DBSK? <.<'' gosh I don't even feel like commenting on that.
    2. If Suju looses I want an smaller lable group to win (I don't care who). Besides that I'd hope that BEG is winning one of those awards …their comeback was really welldone.
    3. I still can't believe they actually do that: "The 26th Golden Disk Awards will be held in Osaka, Japan on January 11th and 12, 2012 at the Kyocera Dome."

    What are they doing?! Trying to make it an all asian award? I was joking when I suggested they are planning on that, but perhaps they really plan on it??? Or having an surprise japanese nominee? <.<'' I don't care about winning GDA at all… but nevertheless I wonder: Why are they doing things the way they are doing it?…. Holding an korean awards show in japan? holding the 2011 awards in 2012? … It's absurd.

    • me too.. I don’t want SJ to attend anymore and it seems like teukie is also against the voting system :(

      • yeah, me too.. korean awards in japan plus 2011 awards in 2012 is doesn’t make any sense at all.. totally and completely absurd :(

  30. wew… i don’t think GDA is worth anything now… I am an ELF, but I believe that TVXQ-JYJ have huge power. and i don’t understand why they aren’t on that list…
    I actually still believed that our only rivals are TVXQ-JYJ, cuz they’re back after 2 yrs and their fans have been waiting for such long time. but this? I believe something fake is happening all over in GDA…

    • much better if tvqx or jyj/bb is there at least we will have a great competitor.. unlike the list now..

    • if you know what happened last GDA, you would know why JYJ and TVXQ and Big Bang aren’t on the list :) in my opinion, GDA is not that accurate because SJ should have won last year’s GDA. I’m not saying that because i’m an ELF and i have nothing against SNSD but still, we all know that SJ would win. Even Teukie himself and SNSD themselves knew that SJ will win but that’s showbiz. They are unpredictable.

  31. omg looked all over the lists and i can’t find BB, TVXQ and JYJ?! i don’t know whether this is a good or bad thing though…anyways, best wishes and i will pray hard that GDA u better be fair this time! hwaiting!

  32. SJ Fighting! I hope our oppas will win again! I hope there would be no cheating. They deserve to win because they are so hardworking and i think everybody knows what they are going through at SMEnt. I hope that they can show SMEnt that they are the one who is making 95% of their sales. But even if SJ didn’t win, they are still winners for me because they are the full package in a group and they have ELF and ELF is still the biggest and the best fanbase in the world. Again they are the best for me. No offense for other fans of other groups :) SUPER JUNIOR FIGHTING! SARANGHAMNIDA! ^^

  33. other fandom said SM is biased toward SuJu..

    • what a joke right.. SM is always biased AGAINST SJ! if they are really changing their attitudes, i’ll feel weird lol ^^

      anw we don’t need the company backing, ELFs are enough!

  34. at least MAMA 2010 still listed SUJU as nominees last year even the award got mess..but GDA 2011??

  35. Now its unrelivent and unfair when they knew that tvxq a bb is not there
    When we told them that gda lost creditability last year they made fun of us :p
    Anywas
    Kinda dissapionted that dbsk is not there cuz everyone is gonna say IF we won, you won cuz dbsk was not there -_-”

    I think they r not on list because
    Dbsk released there album 1/5 and the award will be held on 1/11 so it passed a year already and can’t be counted (MAYBE)
    big bang–> mini album can’t be counted

    All I hope that suju will win >_<
    And my biggest wish is leeteuk to be there and accept the award

  36. [ Presented to the most popular artist based on album sales figures for the year and ratings from judges ]

    this makes me feel uneasy does that mean it’s not longer 60% sales 20% votes and 20% judges like last year
    cuz if it’s not like that then the percentage given to the judges is higher and we all know these judges are not fair

    • its a rumor..no official release state that..

  37. I am sorry but I have bad feeling : no TVXQ, no JYJ no Big Bang and so hard for Suju …. I heard that Lee Soo Man is one of the adjudicators but I feel Suju in bad position … as ELF I hope United ELF will have project for The Real Golden Disk Award for Suju not only China ELF but World ELF so GDA have to know that K-Pop lover specially ELF reject unfair award

  38. hey can someone here please tell us how to make accounts http://isplus.live.joinsmsn.com/award/26goldendisk/en/
    so we know how to vote for them
    cuz voting is gonna start on the 28 of november

    • The admins will probably make a post about it a day before the voting period (if they haven’t already).

  39. Super Junior they will Winner for GDA 2011
    ELF lets vote for Mr,Simple …

  40. I’m a CassieELF so I’m still pissed off at the nominees list. I’m happy to know that others think that this is unfair to TVXQ (JYJ) and BIG BANG. It hurts that TVXQ is going to be in Japan around that time, but the GDA didn’t invite them. TVXQ5 and BoA are the ones who got the people in Japan interested in K-pop. Anyway I’ll be cheering on Super Junior.

  41. Why they host in japana and it two day when they award show it only take one what is going they no bb and dbsk and jyj this award is ufair if dbsk is release they ablum on Jan 5 and they do they award on Jan 11 a 12 ok but jyj album release around oct and they not on listen this is kind bullshit
    If suju win it see like unfair too them cause all the fan said bb dbsk jyj is not there that why they win bla bla suju work hard this year they going get it if not going hurt down gda

  42. Why are ppl coming here to complain about bb, jyj & tvxq instead of rooting for SJ?? If you have issues then go to sites like allkpop, this is a SJ site!
    GO SJ!!

    • we are supporting SuJu, but feel pity to bb,jy,&tvxq as they did well then other nominees..

    • well just my belief, but i don’t think that you necessarily have to ‘tie’ yourself to a single group – a lot of elf (including me) are also fans of other groups as well and it is an award in which it’s very important to look at the other nominees. so the fact that those 3 groups aren’t listed just strengthens the idea that we’ve had since last year that GDA is really not that… legit anymore. it’s still prestigious and i still want suju to win because it means so much to them, but in terms of fairness and actual credibility, i’m really not feeling it’s so….

      • Those groups were not nominated cause either the judges didn’t think they deserve it or that they’re not attending cause they know they won’t win or they have other schedules. SJ have the highest album sales why are you all worrying about legit and what not?? Even if the other groups were nominated, it is highly unlikely they’d win cause SJ have the highest sales and no one is near them!

        So you all are saying SJ just won GDA in 2009 only cuz BB and TVXQ weren’t promoting then? Wow…what have ELF become. Also I’m an ELF only, I listen to other artists’ songs but that doesn’t mean I have to be their fan and follow everything they do. Plus I don’t like bb cuz of gd’s incident.

  43. To be quite honest, I always thought that DBSK will be SuJu’s biggest rival for the disk daesang award. And now that they’re not even nominated, I don’t know what to feel. Not belittling the other nominees but no one came close to SuJu’s album sales other than DBSK/JYJ. SNSD has also impressive sales but they stand more to lose if they actually win. If SuJu wins, it will feel like a hollow victory for me ;_;

    And people, don’t be surprised with JYJ, it was kinda expected they won’t be nominated. So unfair I know but you know how most of the music industry is ganging up on them. >.<

    Anyway, we've already come this far. Let's just keep it up and help our boys win. After all, they (and we) worked hard for this and no one can say they don't deserve it if they win.

    • agreeee. my heart really goes out to dbsk, jyj and bigbang, plus cassies and vips. but i doubt there’s much that can be done now once they’ve made up their mind ><
      if this is how GDA is, then honestly, suju should win. bias and musical quality aside, they have the best figures and numbers in their favour to win out of all the groups listed . for GDA not to let them just throws away every last bit of credibility they have, not to mention having three major fandoms (cassies, vips and elf) after their blood

  44. idol/new group that debut this year can nominate in GDA ?

  45. i dont care with others… i just want super junior win, thats all!!!

  46. GDA is Korea’s Grammy? GDA has only three categories? weh! not even close to be an AMA… maybe GDA is Grammy’s equivalent when it comes to “politicking”…

    Award giving bodies should be independent. they shouldn’t be under the scrutiny of some companies dictating on who will be nominated and whose not…

    I am happy though that SuJu got nominated but seeing the top idols not in the list that gave SJ a tough competition… Winning an award against fiercest competitors gave sense of fulfillment and great happiness to the core..

    Wonder if SJ are even happy with the list of nominees.. Since Teukie dislike the fact that there’s a fee in every vote…

  47. I really want to win MY SuJu bcoz super junior’s songs are the best during this year,like Mr.simple,A-CHA,Superman.they are the choi ko.they must win this time,

  48. I really hope that SJ can win, and GDA you call yourself “Korean’s Grammy”, so just be like it. Straight and fair.

  49. I have no idea and so confused why the 26th golden disk award will be held in osaka?japan? for Korean pop music award?
    are they crazy ?
    we should have our great artists celebrating of getting awards in our homeland rather than our country, for me as Korean I feel so weird and I am so sad because of that

  50. Yea..why is it in Osaka?

  51. SO NYEO SHI DAE is the winner.

  52. OKAY SUPER JUNIOR JUST WON 5 AWARDS! woooo!
