The Wonder Girls are nominated for the Digital (Online Music Sales) Bonsang award and the Popularity Award at the 23rd Golden Disk Awards. What’s exciting is that So Hot and Nobody are nominated in both categories. Two teams will be awarded the Popularity award sponsored by Yepp while four teams will be awarded the Digital Bonsang Award based on online music sales. 1 from those four teams will be awarded the Digital (Online Music Sales) Daesang (Grand Prize). For the record, the Wonder Girls won the Digital Online Sales Bonsang award and Popularity award last year. And it still baffles many why they did not manage to win the Best New Group award. The 23rd Golden Disk Awards will air live on Mnet and KMTV on 10th December starting at 7.00pm (KST). The only way to vote for the Wonder Girls is by phone (ARS#) or mobile voting unfortunately. So let’s show our support in spirit for the Wonder Girls and Korean Wonderfuls. Good luck to all nominees!

The crowd of nearly 6000 sang along with the Wonder Girls and gave the loudest cheers to them on a night where different Korean singers had put on a showcase lasting nearly 2 hours for Singaporeans and Koreans living there. The immense popularity of the Wonder Girls was evident upon their arrival, being welcomed by around 500 fans holding placards and balloons as they were escorted by security from the arrival gate to their vehicle waiting outside. The Wonder Girls responded by waving to their fans whenever possible. “We were so surprised by the warm welcome we got from Singapore fans”. On the 6th, the girls arrived at Incheon Airport and gushed about their visit to Singapore, “Despite this being our first visit, so many fans welcomed us at the airport. We’re very thankful. When we were performing, we were so surprised when the whole audience cheered and sang our songs with us.” Besides the fans support, Wonder Girls leader Min Sun Ye also got a pleasant surprise on her way to Singapore on the 4th when she received notice that she had gained admittance to Dongguk University for the 2009 semester.
