Balming Tiger earns three nods at the UK Music Video Awards 2026, including a Best Director finalist spot for producer Lee Suho.
Three nominations, one top-tier individual nod
Balming Tiger picked up three nominations at the UK Music Video Awards 2026, with their second full-length album Gongbu supplying both tracks in contention. Keep On is nominated for Best Alternative Video – International, a category open to works produced outside the UK. Oui earned a nod for Best Alternative Production Design in a Video, which evaluates how location, set, and objects build the visual world of a video.
The bigger headline is Lee Suho. Balming Tiger's in-house music producer and video director is one of six finalists for Best Director—the top individual award at the ceremony—recognized for his work on the Oui music video.
