The MTV Video Music Award for Best K-Pop award was first introduced at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2019. It was criticized by K-pop fans for segregating their artists from major categories such as Video of the Year and Artist of the Year.[1][2][3]
BTS is the most-awarded artist in this category, having won the award three times. BTS is also the most-nominated act with four nominations.
