K-Pop Top 40 Wildcards: Why EXO, BTS and VIXX Returned

If you're one of the hundreds of thousands fans feverishly voting in our K-Pop Top 40 of 2016 six-round competition to crown the No. 1 K-pop video of the year, you've probably noticed something a bit peculiar now that Round 4 has officially started. Three videos voted out in previous rounds have returned: EXO's "Monster," BTS' "Blood Sweat & Tears" and VIXX's "The Closer." 

These are what we here at Fuse call, the Top 40 Wildcards. Every year when we do our annual Top 40, some videos voted out in early rounds end up garnering vote totals even higher than many other winners of matchups in subsequent rounds. To give those dedicated fans (and their favorite artists) a second chance, we bring back three of those high-performing videos to shake things up.
