Singer MyJin Claims First Blue Dragon Ranking Title in Female Vocalist Category

Singer MyJin has reached a significant career milestone by capturing first place in the February 2026 Blue Dragon Ranking female vocalist category. The veteran trot and ballad singer secured an overwhelming 67.03 percent of the total votes, decisively outpacing second-place finisher Park Hyewon who received 13.62 percent and third-place Kim Ui-young with 9.13 percent.

The monthly voting, which concluded on February 24, saw MyJin dominate from the very beginning. Her commanding lead throughout the polling period left little doubt about the outcome, as she maintained a decisive margin over all competitors from start to finish. This marks her first-ever Blue Dragon Ranking number one finish, a particularly meaningful achievement given her consistent presence in the rankings over the past several months.

A Decade of Musical Perseverance

MyJin first entered the Korean music scene in 2013 with her debut single Unrequited Love. Over the course of more than ten years, she has quietly built a reputation for exceptional vocal ability and unwavering dedication to her craft. Her journey represents a classic story of persistence in an industry where overnight success often overshadows the steady grind of artistic development.

Her profile rose significantly following a runner-up finish on MBN variety competition show Active Singer. That appearance opened doors to further television opportunities, including a memorable stint on the popular MBC program Masked Singer as well as an appearance on the Korea-Japan Top Ten Show. These high-profile broadcasts introduced her powerful vocal talents to a broader demographic, extending her appeal well beyond the traditional trot music audience.

Growing Momentum Across Multiple Fronts

Beyond the television spotlight, MyJin has been actively strengthening her connection with fans through a national concert tour. The live performances have served as a rallying point for her dedicated fanbase, who mobilized in impressive numbers for the Blue Dragon Ranking vote. Her appointment as an honorary ambassador for Yangju City in Gyeonggi Province further reflects her expanding public profile and the recognition she has earned from local communities.

In the previous months Blue Dragon Ranking, MyJin had placed second with 38.81 percent behind fellow vocalist Ryu Won-jung who took first with 42.86 percent. Her jump from runner-up to a dominant first-place finish with nearly double the vote share demonstrates rapidly accelerating fan support heading into 2026.
