    Yup, you read it right...

    ELF is boycotting Super Junior Happy in the coming MKMF 2008

    Source: Sjmarket

    Rough Translation: May contain inaccuracies

    Fans will stage a boycott especially when they feel that the rankings are just rigged

    Mnet manipulates the ranking based on which singer will attend the show and who will win.

    This year, they are again making fools our of the fans with this act:
    2008 20’s Choice award (for all participating singers’ award)

    Also, participating Mnet broadcast stations, including the mobile ranking process, were not disclosed

    So far, Taiji fans questioned the fairness of the mobile nominations, but no reply yet.


    Taiji fans’ letter...



    Leeteuk: "Super Junior has not had any official event this year because of the sub groups, so we do not expect any participation in the award giving ceremonies" --- Super Junior Kiss the Radio 08.09.20 ---

    There is no chance of Super Junior Happy winning because they haven't received (?) an award


    BUT... "Yoriwang" is nominated for:
    Best dance group
    Top prize in Mobile

    This is simply a means of MKMF of getting money from the fans by having them vote


    Ranking is made up for a singer who has not been awarded anything in Mnet
    This is a made up Mnet Award for MKMF
    Super Junior is not included in the awards

    ELF can actively vote to bring them to #1, but Mnet will surely rig it to bring them to #2,3

    ELF will not vote just to win in a Mobile Popularity or Online poll
    `We will not participate in a poll with this reason'

    With all the rigging that is happening, we’d rather have their popularity fall than be part of the bad rumors this year.

    Translated by queenbee/Cross posted@PEX


    E.L.F. is getting more mature in issues like this. Hell yeah, they can simply go vote for Supy to win in the popularity awards, but they know it will just be a lost cause given the scandals linked to MKMF's vote rigging and award buying.

    E.L.F. are advising everyone to simply save their money to buy Suju's third album instead of wasting it on mobile votes. Also, in the comments section of SJmarket, people are being optimistic on this and accepting it without question. They, too, feel the "inappropriateness" of the nomination, given that Suju sub groups have NEVER been part of any award giving ceremony (as Leeteuk has announced in Sukira). So why bother?

    It's not a question of Suju's popularity... ELF knows Super Junior is already popular. They'd rather wait for the RIGHT Award which will showcase not just popularity, but the music and talents of the boys...

    Good luck to all the other nominees, but yeah.. E.L.F. (including me) will just be sitting by the sidelines on this...

    Yes indeed. From the way I see it, ELF is getting more mature. I love the advice for fellow ELFs to save up money for the 3rd album instead.

    ELF FTW!

    Wow...I have to applaud ELF for their decision on doing something like this.
    Yes, I think they should just save their money for the 3rd album. We all know how Mnet works.
