List of awards and nominations received by Girls' Generation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

South Korean girl group Girls' Generation has received various awards and nominations since their debut in 2007. They rose to fame in 2009 with their hit single, "Gee", which later became known as "Song of the Decade".[1] Within two days, the song became number one on all music charts and broke the record for longest-running number one on Music Bank with nine consecutive wins.[2][3] The group then released several hit singles such as "Tell Me Your Wish (Genie)" in 2009, "Oh!" in 2010, "The Boys" in 2011, "I Got a Boy" in 2013 and "Lion Heart" in 2015. The group became the first girl group to win both a Disk Daesang (2010) and a Digital Daesang (2009) at the Golden Disc Awards, and also the first girl group to win a Daesang award three times in a row.

Note
  1. Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.
