Winners Of 2022 Genie Music Awards

The 2022 Genie Music Awards has announced its winners!

On November 8, the Genie Music Awards took place at Incheon’s Namdong Gymnasium, marking the first time in three years that the award ceremony was held with an in-person audience. However, in light of the recent tragedy in Itaewon, both the red carpet and the scheduled live broadcast of the award ceremony were cancelled. Instead, the show was recorded to be aired at a later date.

NCT DREAM won two of this year’s three Daesangs (grand prizes), which were based 60 percent on Genie Music digital scores and 40 percent on judges’ evaluations. The group snagged both the Top Artist award and the Top Album award (for their second studio album “Glitch Mode“).

Meanwhile, Lim Young Woong took home the Top Music award (the third Daesang) for his hit song “Our Blues, Our Life,” as well as the Male Solo Artist award and the Genie Music Popularity award.
