It's easy.

It actually isn't that easy, as Gfriend should have won based on their achievements in 2015. Twice had just debuted 6 weeks before Mama, and Like Ooh-Ahh was at about 300k downloads, while Gfriend's debut was at 600k and Me Gustas Tu was over 1 million. It still baffles me, how Twice won that year tbh, but I guess voting played a big role that year

It's easy, because the rookie award is not based on what a group does in 1 year, based on what the group does in their debut song/album (specially on MAMA), and the debut of Twice was better than that Gfriend.

But they didn't outsell Gfriend in those 5-6 weeks. There were many debuts that were better than Gfriend and Twice, but the award goes to whoever is the strongest rookie that year. It really came down to voting I feel

Glass Bead (6 weeks): 137,375 downloads

Like OOH-AHH (6 weeks): 337,056 downloads

 

Seasons of Glass: 17,625 sales (until now)

The Story Begins: 17,100 (1st month)

 

That's why I say "it's easy" to answer.

Is that really how it works? Cause if that is then they need to change it. Glass Bead sold over 600k that year and MGT was over 1 million, but they only count the debut album's first 6 weeks? That sounds really stupid to me haha

No, I put 6 weeks because you mentioned it. It's a bit unfair and unprofessional to have preference for a song that has 11 months against a song that only has 2 months, I think that the producers of the MAMA will have a criterion to equitable the downloads and sales of all the nominees, at least downloads in 1-2 months. In addition, I think that the debut of TWICE had more impact than Gfriend, which should be another criterion to choose the winner. Just as they chose Cheer Up as song of the year 2016 even though Rough had more downloads, but Cheer Up had more impact.

ah, summer 2015.. Me Gustas Tu Era... how nostalgic iloveyouplz.gif

 

I wonder why Gfriend didnt win Best New Female Group at MAMA 2015 .. Me Gustas Tu is a bop

yeah, it baffled me too... Gfriend snatch almost all Best New Artist Awards, except MAMA... if Mnet using the same criteria as the others, Gfriend should have won..

maybe Mnet tends to give subjective judgement more (like user voting, judge/committee) rather than objective ones..

They have more potential than GF and more balance (they have a strong digital and physical number, MV view, public recognition, CF deals, a big and stable fandom despite they're rookie ).It's the best new girlgroup award not the best debut song. 

In the end, u can see Mnet don't make a mistake by giving Twice the best new rookie award. After one year, Twice manage to get the best girlgroup award and many daesangs award.

And after all I was proven correct.

Yes, Twice and GFriend are now belonging to different dimensions.
