The APAN Music Awards is a South Korean music awards ceremony organized by the Korea Entertainment Management Association (KEMA), the same body responsible for the APAN Star Awards. It was created to honour the top K-pop artists of the year across various music categories as part of a two-day integrated event collectively referred to as the APAN MusicStar Awards.[1][2]

Originally set to take place on November 28, 2020 at the Grand Peace Hall in Kyung Hee University and be broadcast exclusively on online platforms Olleh TV and Seezn,[3] the inaugural ceremony was indefinitely postponed on November 18, 2020 after Level 1.5 social distancing rules went into effect amid a resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in Seoul and surrounding metropolitan areas.[4] Winners in limited categories were revealed online instead.

On December 17, 2020, the ceremony's rescheduled date was announced as January 23, 2021.[5] On January 15, 2021, this was changed to January 24.[6]

Winners and nominees

Nominees in various popularity categories were announced on October 26. Voting began on October 27 via the Idol Champ mobile app and continued until November 27.[7] Voting for the KT Seezn Star category took place on the Seezn app.[8]

Nominees for the Bonsang (Main Prize) category were announced on November 6, 2020. The APAN Top 10 (Bonsang) was selected based on a combination of album sales, digital sales, evaluations from a judges panel, and fan votes.[9]

The APAN Top 10 (Bonsang), Best Icon, Best Performance, Best Music Video, and Best All-rounder winners were announced on November 26.[10] The rest of the winners were announced on November 30 and January 15, 2021.[11][12]

During the ceremony on January 24, 2021, they delivered new categories; Represent Song of the Year, Represent Artist of the Year, Represent Record of the Year, New Wave Award and Best K-Trot.[13]
