UFOPOP 6
The second winners' edition had a strange mix of countries. The previous year's dominant Netherlands suffered an India-like collapse to last place. Korea scored its second victory, with the largest margin to date. A political conflict occurred halfway through the contest when Russia invaded half of Ukraine and sent their Eurovision winner to team with the returning Ukrainian entrant whom he had previously beat in ESC, but the tables turned this time. Another politically interesting duo was Middle East where Lebanon was paired with Israel. Both of their artists were related to ESC 2005, although Lebanon ended up withdrawing.
