criteria for last year
Voting for Melon's Top 10 Artists category opened on the Melon Music website on November 11 and continued until November 20. Only artists who released music between November 30, 2019 and November 10, 2020 are eligible. The longlist of nominees was selected based on a chart performance score (60% downloads and 40% streams) for each artist combined with weekly Melon Popularity Award votes achieved during the eligibility period. Voting for Category awards, including daesang and rookie awards, took place from November 21–26, 2020.
so Brave Girls for example snatched a lot of those weekly Melon Popularity Awards
lol indeed. that sound so random. then may brave girls get 2 bonsangs for all the wmpa the got.^^
Maybe BP would be counted for artists or do they only count 2021 releases?

one bonsang per artist. and majority of their streams come from 2 non eligible songs, but i guess they'll give it to them anyway

from december
Display MoreAs of right now, top 10 pick are probably
IU, Aespa, Brave Girls, Bts, Heize, Taeyeon, Oh My Girl, Lee Mu Jin, Rosé, Davichi
New artist: Aespa, StayC
Trend: Brave Girls
Davichi's release kinda flopped. Bieber is more likely to get a bonsang.
I agree with the rest of your list, unless they decide to nominate SG Wannabe and/or NCT Dream.
And they might give a boy group a new artist award, but boy groups aren't charting. So you actually could be right.
