Welcome to the first (and incredibly important) stage of the 2022 KPOPREVIEWED Awards – the announcement of nominations! 2022 has been another big year in KPOP, with massive comebacks from a huge number of KPOP groups and soloists, top notch performance, reunions of some of our beloved favourites, intense competitions between newly debuted acts, and so much more. And I have taken the mammoth task of nominating 6 entries under each category this year. I definitely do not want to burden you with that job! I did a bit of explaining how the 2022 KPOPREVIEWED Awards will work in the Coming Soon post, so check that out if you have not read it yet!
Following this nomination post, I will be posting my KPOPREVIEWED Choice later on in the week, before opening it all up for your fan votes from the 26 November 2022!
Also remember that there are a BEST SONG and BEST ARTIST category as well, which will be decided by a mixture of your fan notes and my input! These will be equivalent to the Daesang awards you see at the Korean award ceremonies. Unfortunately, I won’t be including them in the Nomination post/pages. But keep those songs and artists in mind for when voting begins!
Due to the number of categories, I have elected to split this post into three pages.
- To view the ARTIST-RELATED categories (including Best Male and Female Soloists, and Best Male and Female Group, collectively the Artists of the Year categories), stay on this page and keep on scrolling.
- To view the CHOREOGRAPHIES, VISUALS and COMEBACK RELATED categories, click here or click to the second page at the bottom of this post.
- To view the SONG-RELATED categories, click here or click to the third page at the bottom of this post.
Without further ado, I present to you the nominees for the 2022 KPOPREVIEWED Awards.

Yeah, the calibre of new male groups this year were many levels below the calibre of new female groups. I am hope that 2023 is different and we see more interesting new male groups!
Glad to see you are excited to vote in this year’s KPOPREVIEWED Awards.

Voting won’t open until this Saturday, and will stay open for 1.5 months (so there will be plenty of time to vote). Another post will go live at the start of the weekend (my time) that will have a link to the voting page, where you will be able to vote!
