With their 2013 album XOXO, EXO has shown spectacular performance during the end of the year award season. In November 2013, EXO became the youngest male group to win the Album of the Year award at the 2013 Mnet Asian Music Awards. EXO were also the Grand Prize winners of the Disk Daesang for XOXO at the 28th Golden Disk Awards. Most recently, EXO were the recipients of the Grand Prize Daesang at the 23rd Seoul Music Awards. While the group made its debut in April 2012, EXO has become the recipient of some of the most prestigious awards in Korean music.
