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.

This is a comprehensive list of awards and nominations received by South Korean rapper, record producer and singer-songwriter Zico. A member of boy band Block B, he has individually been the recipient of numerous awards.
