With the help of everyones votes, I am confident that I wil win the award and be even more motivated to chase my dreams and be the best I can be in the industry,” says Seopa.

“My journey thus far makes me feel excited about my job. It is only through hard work, dedication, and a passion for what I do that I have made it this far. With the support of my fans I am confident that this will simply be the start of my journey,” he adds.
