AWARDS
NOTE: I have chosen to arrange the prizes by awards season, because awards shows don’t technically take place in the same year. So for example, shows like the MNET and Melon Music Awards happen in December, other ones like Gaon Chart and Golden Disc happen a month later in January of the next year, but they’re all awarding the same music. Notable awards such as a bonsang and a daesang are highlighted in bold.
