TV Chosun's 'Trot All-Star Match on Wednesday Night' secured an overwhelming first place in the Culture/Current Affairs category of the Netizens Awards Best Division held last month, renewing its record of winning for 15 consecutive months.

In the July race, which carried over the enthusiasm from the first-half final voting, 'Trot All-Star Match on Wednesday Night' firmly defended its top spot backed by the strong firepower of its solid fandom. According to the voting results for the Culture/Current Affairs category, the program garnered a total of 24,920 votes, defending its throne at first place with a high share of 41.1%. Although the number of votes slightly adjusted compared to the previous month, it still secured overwhelming support exceeding 40%, achieving the remarkable feat of winning for 15 consecutive months.

In particular, trot-based content completely dominated the upper rankings, showcasing its formidable dominance. MBC Standard FM's 'Son Tae-jin's Trot Radio' rallied 15,049 votes (a share of 24.8%) with the full support of its fans, firmly maintaining second place following last month. MBC ON's 'Trot Champion' also secured 12,313 votes (a share of 20.3%), settling in third place. With the combined share of the top three programs reaching 86.2% of the total votes, the trot genre's solo run within the Culture/Current Affairs category continued.

In the middle rankings, the fandoms of each program engaged in fierce competition for votes.

MBN's 'Earth Exploration Life' took fourth place with 3,668 votes (6.1%), and KBS2's '2 Jang 1 Jeol' ranked fifth with 1,499 votes (2.5%). KBS2's 'Immortal Songs' followed in sixth place with 1,208 votes (2.0%), MBN's 'Burning Rose Squad' recorded seventh place with 973 votes (1.6%), and TV Chosun's 'Masterpiece Factory' made the eighth-place group with 768 votes (1.3%).

Fierce competition continued to the very end in the lower section of the rankings.

MBC's 'I Live Alone' secured 204 votes (0.3%) to defend ninth place, while SBS's 'Mountain Bachelor Young-woong,' which newly entered the rankings last month, collected a final 6 votes to finish in tenth place.
