End-of-the-year awards total for JYP, SM, and YG artists

Another year has come and gone, and the media has totaled the number of awards for all of the artists from the three biggest entertainment companies in Korea: JYP, SM, and YG Entertainment. The question being asked is, "who brought in the most awards this year?" By a very close margin, JYPE artists brought in 14 awards this year, with SM artists taking in 13, and YG artists following with 11 awards.

The awards were totaled from the three award shows: 2010 MAMA, 25th Golden Disk Awards, and 2010 Melon Music Awards.

However, it should be noted that some of the companies did not attend certain shows. SM Entertainment and MNet have had bad blood in the past, despite their current "truce". None of the SM artists attended MAMA this year. At the 25th Golden Disk Awards, YGE artists did not attend, and the show has a strict policy of no show-no award. No YGE artist has won an award at the Golden Disk Awards since 2007, where Big Bang won a Bonsang. It's been said that YGE does not attend the Golden Disk Awards due to a dispute. Despite some small conflicts, JYP artists have managed to attend all of this year's award shows.

What do you think about the results of total awards per company? Does it signify anything? Should it signify anything? Do you believe that bias and certain problems that have arisen affected the way the awards were given out?
