The Fact Music Awards

The Fact Music Awards (Korean: 더팩트 뮤직 어워즈; 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. Established in 2019, The Fact Music Awards determines its winners through objective data from Circle Chart (formerly Gaon Music Charts), a panel of judges, and the support and participation scores of fans at home and abroad. The awards ceremony broadcasts across Asia through multiple channels including both V Live and ABS-CBN. 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.
