During the acceptance speech RM hinted at the chart manipulation issue, he said,

“There is one thing I’d like to say as well. We were blessed with luck and thanks to many people we were able to say what we want to say and make music we want to make.

However, there are many artists who give their best to their music but are unable to do this. We hope that these artists hard work and sincerity will be able to reach the public in a fair manner that isn’t in vain.

I hope that the wrongdoings would end in the 2010s and there will be better things to come in the 2020s.”
