The awards show, which is holding its 8th year, has established itself as one of the big four music awards ceremonies in South Korea alongside the 'Mnet Asian Music Awards', 'Golden Disk Awards', and 'Seoul Music Awards'. The 'MelOn Music Awards' is noted for its emphasis on digital sales and public votes to determine its winners.

This year's top 10 artists were chosen from a pool of 30 artists who had the highest Melon chart scores for the year, narrowing it down by combining fan votes (20%) and chart scores (80%).
