For people who doesn't know anything about this award, don't say anything without research. Cs, you will make a fool of you if you do it....

"KCA is called the "Grammy of South Korea".. It is the only award show where chart, number, sale, vote have zero thing to do & depends only on "Quality".. Even for having a single nomination, one Artist needs to have the "Best of the best quality"... No wonder, when Korean Artist even get a single nom in this award, they think they got one of the biggest achievement of their Artistic life... If you think your fav couldn't get nom so it is "Rigged", There can be hardly be any fool like you. Cs this award show shut door on face of Law quality music"

I know, I made many ppl pissed of. But I am stating truth. Not sorry if it pinched you!!

KMAs are very prestigious and are South Korea's equivalent of the Grammys.

It is truly an honour for all the artists nominated. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
