TXT claimed the top honor at the KM Chart Awards 2026, held July 25 at Korea University's Hwajeong Tiger Dome in Seoul.

Three other Daesangs went to established names in the industry. BTS won Album of the Year for their latest studio album ARIRANG. MAMAMOO's Hwasa took Song of the Year for her track "Good Goodbye," and CORTIS snagged Record of the Year with their EP GREENGREEN.

The ceremony's main prizes, called the Ultimate 12 or Bonsang, recognized twelve artists and groups: BTS, Hwasa, TXT, P1Harmony, ZEROBASEONE, RIIZE, NCT WISH, KickFlip, Hearts2Hearts, ALLDAY PROJECT, CORTIS, and ALPHA DRIVE ONE.

Other standout wins included P1Harmony as Best Male Group and Hearts2Hearts as Best Female Group. TXT's Yeonjun won Best Popular Solo Male, while aespa's Winter took Best Popular Solo Female. UNIS claimed both the Best Popular Female Group award and a KM Favorite Icon nod, alongside 82MAJOR.

New Artist Award honors went to LNGSHOT and ALPHA DRIVE ONE. UNIS and 82MAJOR also earned KM Favorite Icon status, while NEWBEAT and VVUP were named KM Next Potential.
