Controversy

SM Entertainment boycott

SM Entertainment, one of the largest Korean music agencies, boycotted the 2010 Mnet Asian Music Awards, as they did in 2009. The show was under fire for fairness and employing a "no show, no award" policy where the winner must attend the ceremonies.[2][5]

Location

In addition, Mnet came under criticism because of the date and location of the awards. They were the first Mnet Asian Music Awards to take place outside of South Korea. They also aired on a Sunday, which means performers had to choose between SBS' The Music Trend show or the awards ceremony.[9][10]
