How to vote via Fantasy Runner:
Make a Kakao Talk account, if you haven’t already.
You will need to use the Korean iTunes or Google Play store to download this app. (For Android phones, you could try this, but I haven’t tested it.) For iPhones, make a new Apple ID using this tutorial. Scroll all the way down and choose “대한민국” as your store. Agree to the terms by clicking the button on the bottom right corner. Click the right button on the pop-up, too. You will eventually need to enter a real credit card # (although the app is free), and a real Korean province and post code (I chose Jeju-do, because why not. You can use any of these post codes for Jeju-do, and fake the rest of the billing address. Or you can do some research of your own, and use a different province and post code).
Search for and download “판타지 러너즈” from the Korean iTunes store.
Let the app load (the first time takes a while). Click the green button. Then click the yellow button and confirm your Kakao Talk ID. The app should load again. Click the x on any ads that should appear (yes, even the WIN ones). You might need to run through the game one time, as it teaches you how to play.
When you get to this screen, click the mailbox on the bottom left of the screen:
You should have a message waiting that will show you this screen:
Click the green checkmark underneath the team of your choice.
If your screen looks like this, you did it correctly:
How to vote via KakaoTalk: 1. Add WIN from the plus friends list (or just search their ID by typing in ’@win’, make sure the ’@’ symbol is in front) 2. In the chatroom, type in 투표 3. Type in ‘1’ if you want to choose Team A, type in '2’ if you want to choose Team B. 4. Type in '1’ to receive notifications about the battle 5. Type in your name (It doesn’t matter if it’s in Korean or not) 6. Type in your cellphone number with the country code in front (ie. If you live in the USA you should write your number like 1-XXX-XXX-XXXX) 7. Type in '1’ if you’re a male, type in '2’ if you’re a female 8. If you get a message that starts with “투표 성공!”, then you have successfully cast your vote.
How to vote via Daum: 1. Make sure you have already registered for a Daum account. Here is a tutorial on how to create a Daum account, if you do not know how to. 2. Go to the Offiical YG Event Page on Daum and cast your vote by click on the team you want and then clicking on the big red button below the two teams’ images. 3. If you get a pop-up box saying “오늘은 이미 투표하셨습니다”, then that means that you have already successfully cast your vote for today.
Please note that Fantasy Runner is only available on the Korean iTunes store and Korean Google Play store. Tutorial to bypass country restrictions on iOS:http://bit.ly/16MyUNB Tutorial to bypass country restrictions on Android:http://bit.ly/1bfzqeH

“WHO IS NEXT: WIN” (“WIN”), a survival show that portrays the competition between two teams of novice artists to be selected as members of YG’s new boy band formed eight years after the debut of Big Bang, is finally beginning the first viewer vote. The show has recently recorded the highest viewership among cable channel’s entertainment shows, and is not beginning the survival battle in earnest, with a great interest of viewers.
Team A (Song Min Ho, Kim Jin Woo, Lee Seung Hoon, Nam Tae Hyun, and Gang Seung Yoon) and Team B (B.I, Kim Jin Hwan, Bobby, Song Yoon Hyung, Goo Jun Hwe, and Kim Dong Hyuk) of “WIN” are finally beginning the battle. The vote to select the winner starts right after the end of Episode 6 on this coming Friday.
Since the vote is the starting point for a process to select the members of YG Entertainment’s new boy band eight years after the debut of Big Bang, it is drawing much attention. Viewers have already started talking about who the winner will be, among Team A whose members are already famous and Team B who have an outstanding teamwork.
In Episode 5, YG’s head producer Yang Hyun Suk, Big Bang’s G-Dragon and Taeyang, mentors of Team A and B respectively, as well as Top, Dae Sung, Seungri, and 2NE1’s CL, Bom, Dara, and Minzy appeared in the show, as judges.
The battle is a very important opportunity for “WIN” members, since it is the opening of the gateway to debut as YG artists and a test to be judged by all YG’s senior singers. The most important thing about the battle seems to be who will shake off the tension and sense of burden and exert full potential, to show a good performance and win the hearts and minds of viewers.
The first battle between Team A and Team B will be aired on the 25 (Fri.), at 10pm on Mnet and at 11:20pm on tvN.
“The show has been aired in more than 10 Asian countries as well, starting from the 17 (Tue.) this month, on STAR TV’s cable Channel V and CJ E&M’s Southeast Asian subsidiary Channel M. In China, the show is exclusively aired on Youku, the biggest local video-streaming site, and it has been creating sensation in the country, recording one million views for Episode 1 and 4.
Plus, “WIN” is live broadcasted on the mobile application of DAUM, where replay and behind story of the show are serviced. Plus, the show is triggering higher expectations, with a schedule to be broadcasted in 188 countries around the world through Arirang TV channel, starting from this week.
Team A has Kang Seung Yoon, Lee Seung Hoon, Song Min Ho, Kim Jin Woo, and Nam Tae Hyun, a total of 5 members. Their average age is 20 y.o, and amongst them, Kang Seungyoon and Lee Seunghoon are already well-known with the public, in addition to Kang Seungyoon having made his solo debut a while ago. Team A’s leader is Song Minho. On the other hand, Team B’s average age is much younger, an average of 17 y.o. The members are Goo Joonhwe, Kim Jiwon, Song Yoonhyung, Kim Jinhwan, Kim Donghyuk, and B.I, making up a total of 6 members. B.I appeared for the first time as a guest in MC Mong’s “Indian Boy” back in 2009. This year, the now-17 year old boy will be taking the reins and responsibility as Team B’s leader. With half of WIN already over, Team B is currently in the lead, as well as gaining the support of many fans. With this, Team B has a very high chance of becoming the “WINNER”, but will Team A be able to make a comeback with their high level of public recognition with Kang Seungyoon and Lee Seunghoon?!
Taking the stage with GD
It’s important to be able to show your skills as a team, but to be able to hold down a stage with your skills requires much more. Team A and Team B had an exciting stage with G-Dragon for his comeback performance on MCountdown! Just like how seven years ago, Big Bang appeared on company senior Se7en’s stage, GD rose up to his position as the two groups’ company senior and guided them on the stage. Other than being able to just feel what it’s like to be on stage, the two teams are able to attain valuable lessons and experience in performing. With their company seniors guiding them, WINNER will definitely be a force to be reckoned with after they debut!

With Big Bang’s exploding popularity all around the globe, they’ve permanently established themselves as one of Hallyu’s strongest and most important groups. In addition, they along with other YG artists have made a lasting impression in the hearts of their Korean fans. In order to prolong their success, YG has been honing two new boy groups. However, the catch is that only one of them will be able to debut with the name “WINNER”, and the process of choosing which group will debut will be shown on a harsh reality program.
Only the victor will debut
Korean entertainment company YG will be pushing out a new boy group; however, there are currently two groups in the process of preparation, and still without an actual group name, only being codenamed as “Team A” and “Team B” for now. The two teams will be battling in a do-or-die competition through the TV program “WIN”, a program that YG has described as a reality survival program. In the program, Team A and Team B will face off in a series of intense battles, in which further details will be revealed as the program goes on. Through this program, fans can follow through the groups’ entire processes of going through training, practicing, and their battles. In the end, the group that receives the most votes from the audience will gain the title of the “WINNER” and be able to formally debut after the program is finished airing. On the other hand, the group that loses may face disbandment or member replacements.
