The K-pop Yearbook: Most Likely to Win a Nobel Peace Prize

129
Written by On February 29, 2012

After what initially seemed like an all-kill win last week for Big Bang‘s G-Dragon as Most Likely to Become CEO of Their Own Company, JYJ‘s Kim Jaejoong, like always, ended up decimating the rest of the competition, coming out on top with 49.84% of the vote, followed by G-Dragon with 27.77% of the vote, and BoA with 15.88% of the vote.

With Jaejoong winning any and every poll, his victory may seem suspect, especially since his general attitudes and behavior don’t necessarily correspond to someone who would ideally be put in a leadership position, an essence that is best reflected in his rejection of the opportunity to be Dong Bang Shin Ki‘s leader. But both the times and situations have changed and Jaejoong has proven that he has a creatively minded, business streak. He has taken the lead in composing/writing many of Dong Bang Shin Ki/JYJ’s songs and he has taken creative and administrative control over many of his professional relationships. Many of the top companies are headed by former idols that took the same kind of initiatives that Jaejoong takes now and so, it is quite plausible and probably that Jaejoong will one day create his own idol groups and eventually head his own company.

But now that that is said and done, Seoulbeats wants you to consider who you think would be Most Likely to Win a Nobel Peace Prize.

While it is commonplace in idoldom to be polite and mannered, there are idols that have taken the initiatives to provide and service the greater and larger community directly. From fundraising funds and to organizing service projects, these idols are striving towards the realization of social, political, and economic ideals. After the sun sets on these stars and they continue onto a path of other pursuits and/or interests, who is most likely to continue bettering and furthering mankind and achieve the highest possible recognition for such a commitment, the Nobel Peace Prize?

Do your work, Seoulmates!

    Yunho! He’s the most suitable! 

  • Anonymous

    The fact that Yunho is almost winning is so very sad and says so much about fangirls voting for their bias instead of actually taking time to see what each person has done. 
    I mean…this is a poll about charity. 
    If it was a poll about looks or fashion or singing or acting, then yeah I would expect people to vote for their biases, but you are seriously going to do that for a poll about charity as well?

      Yunho did many things . the fact that you don’t know about it doesn’t give you the right to talk like this about him

      • Anonymous

        I know what he’s done. I’m not saying he’s a bad person or he doesn’t deserve to be recognized for what he’s done
        Just, this poll is supposed to be about who deserves it the most. 

        If you compare what Yunho has done to what Sunye or especially to what Sean has done then there is no comparison. 

        Obviously you are a Yunho fan, but for this poll it’s sad that fans are voting only on bias and not on merit.

      who do U suggest then? It doesn’t matter actually. and why is it so very sad if he wins? he has that desired qualities in him and surely that qualifies the winning. and fanboys did the same thing too alright? we human are the same. physical appearance is the first aspect that we measure before we take a step further to get to know him/her, rite? 

      • Anonymous

        Obviously Sean. Compared to everyone else on this list, they all pale in comparison to what he has done to help others. 

        Wow, so you are saying that physical appearance is the main thing to vote on when this poll is about CHARITY and giving??

        That is so, so depressing on all levels that I don’t even have a proper comment to give you besides the fact that I hope you rethink your priorities in life.

      Look at the post above you and then talk about not knowing who people are. 
      Has what Yunho done even compare 1/100 to what Sean has done for others across the globe?

      Actually, can spam voting even occur? They only count the vote once, as far as i know… o.o

    i vote for yunho, i don’t know about sean and sunye charity works, except i read here, about them, their works are adorable too, but it’s still one thing that make me vote for yunho. because beside his own charity works, (that is the same for other nominees, less or more, too) he influenced all his fans to do charity works too, and since he has a huge fanbase so it’s lots of money, and beside that just spreading charity spirit among other people is really sth that deserve peace prize…

  • http://twitter.com/simpledm xelo truo

    I voted for Sean; I was shock that he isn’t winning the poll or even the top 3. I’m glad that a lot of readers felt the same way from reading the comment.

    The results of this poll disappoint me and others who actually voted based on merits. I can understand either of the following winning (preference shown by order): Sean, Sunye, Yunho and Hyori. Seohyun’s desire to be a diplomat and her role model doesn’t make her merit winning this poll. Why do fandoms spoil everything with their spamming? It is okay for Girl’s Generation to not win everything!

    • http://twitter.com/lily_of_west CLover/Infiknight

      delusional fans will be that clearly..it’s sad to see how kpop community works..that’s one of the things i so dislike about it…puts me off of being a fan…

    • http://twitter.com/deni_ss_e honey funny bunny

      But this poll is not based on merits. 
      “who is most likely to continue bettering and furthering mankind” All these ppl are really kind-hearted so i’m pretty sure all of them will have many opportunities to make the world a better place. 

      And about Seohyun.. who knows what will happen with her after 5 years.She may lead a completely different life away from the idol world.

    The good looking people always win in the end I guess. If Sean will lose this poll, I wish he has at least a fighting chance.

  • http://twitter.com/tatetaaa wanna know hah??

    Sunye for sure ^^..

  • http://twitter.com/__flyawayzxc lifang!

    Yunho. Voting is based on preference, yes. I don’t know much about other people in this poll, but many fans from all over the world donated to charities in his name on his birthday. Yunho did not only influence fans to become more generous and care more about the less fortunate in the society, he also made people come together and unite their force as one. It’s like, doesn’t it make a great difference when he could have that kind of ability to let everybody who doesn’t even know each other to unite for a good cause?

    His personality also makes a difference. I can proudly say Yunho changed my life, my way of thinking. No, i’m not delusional. But there’s so many things i can learn from him : His humbility despite his successes, his deep respect and consideration for others, his unwavering passion and determination to reach his dreams, etc.

    “who is most likely to continue bettering and furthering mankind” If one can influence others to do good works and also better them in terms of character, it’s definitely yunho.

    Then again, i don’t see why there’s a need to argue about who we should be voting for. I see people who voted for Sean say others who didn’t are voting based on looks/preference/biased.

    1. That’s probably because Yunho is well-known, that’s why many people know about him, his personality, and what he has done.
     2. Voting is a choice, there shouldn’t be criticism or anything like it to it. Voting is to find out about the general preference of people. I believe all the idols here did good things that should be recognized. But in the end, people are voting based on what they think. You don’t have to be all mad about it if you think the one deserved to be leading, isn’t.

      I totally agree with you. Well said. Let’s keep voting for leader-shii.

      When he wasn’t part of the top 2, they never said anything against him. Now that he’s catching up to the top spot, many started talking as if we voted for the wrong person when in fact we just voted according to what our heart and mind dictates us to vote…just like how they voted for the one they had picked.

    Yunho was one of the first celebs to encourage fans to give money for charities on his birthday instead of giving him gifts. He frequents orphanages on what little spare time he has in order to clean and help out. He gave scholarships and donated to his old school for 6 fucking years WITHOUT announcing to the world. No one knew of this until the teacher spoke of it. Yunho donated to Haiti also in secret and not to mention he created the 85 club in order to collect money and donate that to charity. 

    Yunho may not be the one that does the most in the world but my god you people are ignorant if you think he is just some idol who is worshipped for only his looks. He is so much more than that; Generous and kindhearted, yet he remains humble and doesn’t do anything for attention. I vote for him because as someone who is famous, its easy to neglect things like charities but he hasn’t. Being famous gives him more advantage to influence people as well and “continue bettering and furthering mankind” isn’t this what the poll is about?

    i totally voting for yunho~
    i’m voting not because he’s my bias but i know he deserve it~~~

  • http://twitter.com/princepasya arikanti

    I choose Yunho because he is truly inspiring people to do a good thing..he likes friendship, he is a caring & loving gentleman..socialite indeed. He asked his fans to donate the unfortunate people instead of giving him expensive gift. So, in my opinion Yunho is the best choice to get the NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

    Yunhoooo >< (and WonderShinki :))) )

  • http://twitter.com/MiszCSap Sapura Noor

    Yunho truly has that leadership qualities. he has the responsibility, committed, strong personality and most of all, the excellent communication skills. He’s very persuasive and persistent as well. and he could be one good CEO of his own company. And NOBEL Peace Prize does NOT only depends on popularity/fame. dedication and hardwork are very important qualities as well. 
    I like Hyori too. She’s a very aggressive person as well despite her being a lovely lady as we always imagine. She’s demanding and experiences t/o her years as singer really will help her in communicating and winning over customers.
