SBS M was a South Korean pay television music channel owned by SBS Medianet, a division of SBS Media Holdings. It features South Korean pop artists, international music, news, and a few reality and variety programs.

It was launched in 2001 as the South Korean version of the MTV. In 2011, it came under the SBS Paramount unit, a joint venture of SBS Medianet and Paramount Networks EMEAA and became SBS MTV. In June 2022, SBS and Paramount ceased their joint-venture, and the channel was renamed as SBS M. During its run as SBS MTV, it carried programs originally from the American MTV, along with a few Asian programs of its MTV Asian counterparts.

From 1994 to 1999, MTV, through a partnership deal, showed programs on the CheilJedang group's Mnet network.

In January 2001, the MTV block returned on OnGameNet, then owned by Orion Group's On-Media.

In July 2001, On-Media and Viacom launched MTV Korea. Their partnership ended in 2008.

In 2008, MTV Korea was acquired by C&M.

In September 2011, SBS, a South Korean commercial broadcaster, became the official South Korean partner of Viacom (then re-merged with CBS Corporation to form ViacomCBS in 2019, later Paramount Global and now Paramount Skydance Corporation). With this, MTV became a part of SBS, and renamed SBS MTV in November 2011.¹²

On June 30, 2022, the channel was renamed as SBS M with the departure of Paramount Global content to partnered streaming service TVING, with the domestic version of Nickelodeon also rebranded as KiZmom.³

On May 14, 2025, the channel ceased its broadcasting, and the last programme to be aired is "THE SHOW". Some of its daily programmes was transferred to SBS F!L.⁴
