Fan-voted K-pop award show at Korea University Hwajeong Gymnasium, Seoul (July 25). Performers include TXT, ZEROBASEONE, P1Harmony, UNIS, 82MAJOR, and more. Real-time fan voting determines winners — a high-energy live experience of K-pop fandom culture.
The KM Chart Awards (KMA) is a K-pop awards ceremony where chart performance and global fan voting determine the winners — no industry panels, no jury decisions. What you hear reflects what fans around the world have been streaming and voting for. The 2026 edition takes place July 25 at Korea University’s Hwajeong Gymnasium in Seoul.
Confirmed performers include TXT (TOMORROW X TOGETHER), ZEROBASEONE, P1Harmony, UNIS, Hi-Fi Un!corn, 82MAJOR, KickFlip, ALLDAY PROJECT, CORTIS, LNGSHOT, VVUP, Hearts2Hearts, NEWBEAT, ALPHA DRIVE ONE, and MODYSSEY — a mix of established acts and newer groups, reflecting the breadth of the current K-pop scene.
Award ceremonies in Korea move fast and pack in performances. The KMA format is fan-interactive — voting happens in real time and results are announced during the show. It’s a different energy than a straight concert: more spontaneous, more audience reaction, more unpredictable. Good for fans who want to experience the fandom atmosphere in person.
Korea University Hwajeong Gymnasium is in Seongbuk-gu, northeast Seoul. Take Metro Line 6 to Goryeo University Station (고려대역) and walk about 10 minutes. Tickets via Melon Ticket, Klook, and official tour partners.
