Fans have accused the award show of being partial towards SM Artists. Unlike other award shows, the Seoul Music Awards have always revealed their artist lineup on the day of the live event, which is today, January 19.In fact, they had also declared that audience tickets would be distributed to attendees randomly, with no designated fan seating. However, a day prior to the event on January 18, fans of SM Entertainment artists SHINee’s Minho, GOT The Beat, and NCT Dream revealed they received notices for seat reservations via fan communities.The notice revealed that 50 seats will be reserved for SHAWOLs (SHINee fans) and 225 seats each for NCT Dream and GOT The Beat fans.As a result, fans have accused them of being partial towards SM Artists and giving them preferential treatment. Seoul Music Awards is yet to respond to these allegations.
