In the past years, the 3rd and 4th The Fact Music Awards, which were held as "on-tact" shows, were conducted safely while thoroughly complying with the government's quarantine guidelines. Based on that experience, the event staff will do the same for this year's show.
In addition to that, The Fact Music Awards 2022 is said to present an upgraded ceremony, and will feature top-tier K-pop artists who have been active in the music industry this year. These acts are said to give fans a special stage that can only be seen on that day.

The Fact Music Awards 2022 will kick off through the voting for the various categories on Fan N Star this June.
The lineup of artists, award categories, judging criteria, and how to watch the award show will be announced later on the event's official website.
