The preliminary voting round of the "Popularity Award" for the upcoming 2021 Asia Artist Awards has been opened!

On Oct. 13, Asia Artist Awards announced that they will hold a "popularity vote" to decide the winners of the "Popularity Award" in various fields this year like what they did in the previous awards ceremonies.

The winners of the "Popularity Award" will be based wholly on fans' votes. This year, there will be six categories: male idol group, female idol group, male solo singer, female solo singer, male actor, and female actress.

In addition to this, a new award will be given to the artist who has the highest vote in Japan. This means this award will only be based on the votes of Japanese fans.
