[NEWS] Big Bang featured on MTV EMA Worldwide Act Nominee Spotlight! (111027)

| Thursday, October 27
The South Korean boy band beat out Agnes Monica, Exile, Gotye, Jane Zhang, Jay Chou, and Sia for the honour of being the first act to represent Asia Pacific in the race for the new Worldwide Act EMA.

As their moniker might suggest, BIGBANG make a splash, with their catchy hip-hop/dance pop and their suave fashion style—and after attaining megastardom in their home country, they’re starting to gain recognition internationally.

The five-piece group (Daesung, G-Dragon, Seungri, Taeyang, and T.O.P.) topped the charts in 2007 with their single “Lies” in Korea and won the Seoul Music Award for Artist of the Year—among other honours—that year. BIGBANG went on to amass fans in Japan and win awards there. They scored Best Pop Video and Best New Artist trophies at the MTV Video Music Awards Japan 2010.

After a hiatus when the group members focused on pursuing side and solo projects, they returned with a—wait for it—bang. Their 2011 release ‘Tonight’ was the first K-pop, or South Korean pop, album to hit the iTunes top 10.

You can vote for Worldwide Act and the other open MTV EMA categories through 4th November. The winners will be announced on 6th November at the 2011 MTV EMA in Belfast, airing on MTV at 9 PM CET (9 PM GMT in the U.K.).
Keep on voting guys until November 4th. Hwaiting!^^
