Hello, and welcome to the 2013 EatYourKimchi awards
I am your host, the Spudgy.
Yes. The Spudgy that the Golden Spudgy was based of off.
Today's Star started program will be broken into two parts
Followed by the most glorious bloopers.
And now, to sing the opening theme song.
MY MILKSHAKE BRINGS ALL THE BOYS TO...
We're starting off today with the award for Rookie of the year.
While last year we had a very close contest between B.A.P. and EXO for the award
This year saw Eric Nam and the Bangtan Boys duke it out
But ultimately only one could win.
And that was none other than Eric Nam.
Oh My God.
Hi~
I'm here at the EYK studio and I got my very very first golden Spudgy.
Thank you so much to all of my fans
It really means a Lot. I know that the competition was very very intense.
But thank you so much for voting. It really means a lot to get "Rookie of the year"
It's an award you can only get once.
This is probably more important than President getting voted off,
Eating Mexican food in Mexico...
I don't know... This is Very very... This is a big deal.
Very big deal. And you can't have it, coz it's mine~
BTS whuuut whuuut whut?
I'm sorry. Sorry.
But thank you so much.
I hope that I can continue to release some good music and a lot of stuff that you guys enjoy.
So thank you so much for this Golden Spudgy.

Very good Busker Busker... Thank you Eric Nam...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA [EN]NOOOOOO!
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE
Our next batch of nominations is a bit more serious.
Because it looks at some of the most interesting Korean Music Videos of the year.
We're starting off with the Best Plot in a Music Video and the nod goes to
Jin's "Gone"
Which I'm not sure why you all voted for
Because it was really sad.
Didn't las year's plot of the year also go to a really sad movie or something?
What's up with the best plot equals the one that is going to make you sob the most?
And what's with all of the dying in K-pop ballads?
Alright, don't worry, I've got this.
I'm going to fix this entire Music Video, ok?
Xiumin is just going to say "A-yo I left mah pills by the hottie"
while he is being dragged away
and then nothing sad would happen.
Question: Why does Xiumin sound like GD?
No one will ever know.
Point is: congratulations to Jin for the win.
Next up on our list is the winner for the best Artsy Fartsy video of the year award
While the last category is more focused on telling a story
This category is more interested in symbolism
and artsyness.
Plot be damned.
And the winner of this category goes to Geeks' really interesting video for "Wash away"
In case you were confused, the water was a symbol for life
The hot girl was a symbol for pizza.
Think about it.
Next category is for the Most Bizarre Music Video of the year.
Which pretty much took the very esteem concepts of plot and symbolism in a Music Video.
And then slapped them both in the face and told the to go to hell.
No video did this better than T.O.P.'s "Doom dada"
It caused a lot of people to scratch their heads and say "Whuuuuut?"
BUT this video on first glance might look crazy
But it is So so so painfully thought-out
Doom Dada can be seen as a reference to dada or dadaism
Which is an avant-garde art movement
An art movement that birthed post-modern art, abstract art and surrealism.
And T.O.P. uses surrealism and abstract art throughout the entire video.
Including images from Kim Whanki and Salvador Dali
And while introducing pieces of artwork in the video
They take a like of their own
Interacting with T.O.P. in various ways.
T.O.P. also alludes to a variety of critically important films
that come from various countries.
All of which are very influential films.
Such as "The Leopard", "Dr.Strangelove", "Brazil", "2001: A Space Odyssey", "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari"
"The Blair Witch Project " and even "The Zootrope" which would eventually birth motion picture to begin with~
And the common threat in the entire Music Video is T.O.P.
Who seems to be traveling through all of these various artistic periods and eras.
Seeing himself evolve from ape to man
and back again.
But always bringing music and rap with him.
While also leading the evolutionary path
Which could also allude to something simple
Like him being the head of the rap pack.
But in combination with his lyrics
It could also portray a deeper message
One that urges people to return to music as an art form that can make an impact on the world
rather than just for money.
T.O.P. loves art, I love art.
Therefore T.O.P. loves me.
Wait...
I might have missed something there...
Nope. I think it's alright.
A job well done.
Analysis at its best.
When it comes to sexiness in Kpop
every year seems to be pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable
and what will get you banned.
For the next category of the Natiest video in Kpop
we're looking at what video's overwhelming sexiness
have you finished the video. paused for a second and say "oooh you so nasteh~"
The winner for this category was non other than Troublemaker's "Now"
Which had sex, violence and vomiting...
All in one video.
Nasteh~
But just for argument's sake...
Did you guys happen to watch All of the videos on the nomination playlist?
Because... I'm not sure if you saw N.O.M.'s "A Guys"
That video took nastiness to a whole new level
I wonder what it would be like if they would have won.
Hi girls, it's time for some more fangirling with Fangurilla.
Oh no.
I wouldn't want to be interrupted by some sexy boys.
Or would I?
Oh hoh, Hey boys~
You should come and dance with me.
Here. C'mon. Hehey c'mon.
Ho... Hold on! Hey! Come back here!
I'll lick your butts.
Come here, guys. Oh you're so greasy, I like that.
Yeah~
