The Fact Music Awards Explained

The Fact Music Awards
Awarded For:Contributions to the Hallyu wave
Presenter:The Fact and Fan N Star
Country:South Korea

The Fact Music Awards (; abbreviated as TMA) is an awards ceremony hosted by The Fact and organized by Fan N Star that recognizes major contributors to the Hallyu wave.[1] Established in 2019, The Fact Music Awards determines its winners through objective data from Gaon, a panel of judges, and the support and participation scores of fans at home and abroad.[2]

The awards ceremony broadcasts across Asia through multiple channels including both V Live and ABS-CBN.[3]

The December 2020 ceremony was replaced by an online ceremony for awards in all categories in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic to prevent further spread of the virus and to ensure the safety of both fans and artists.[4]
