Korean Music Awards

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Korean Music Award has been presented in South Korea since 2004 and honors both mainstream and underground artists in all genres of music. For some time the music award was supported by the government of South Korea .

The nominated artists are judged by an expert jury consisting of music journalists , music critics , radio presenters and other music experts.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in South Korea , the award ceremony, which should have taken place on February 27, 2020, has been canceled. In the interests of the fans, the organizers published a list of all the winners.
