The 2006 Mnet Km Music Festival (MFMK) was the eighth of the annual music awards in Seoul, South Korea that took place on November 25, 2006 at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena.

Contents

Leading the nominees were Wax boy bands TVXQ and SG Wannabe, and solo artist Rain with five nominations each. The boy bands secured two wins each by the end of the ceremony, while the latter received only one award out of 5 nominations.

Background

The award-giving body continued to use the name "M.net Korean Music Festival" (MKMF) for the eighth consecutive time. Starting this year, however, three grand prizes (or daesang) were introduced including Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year awards. The event took place at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena once again with Shin Dong-yup as a returning host and Kim Ok-bin as his co-host. The Nomination Screen Is Inspired By 2006 MTV Video Music Awards
