The 2005 Mnet Km Music Video Festival (MKMF) was the seventh of the annual music awards in Seoul, South Korea that took place on November 27, 2005 at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena.

The award-giving body continued to use the name "M.net Korean Music Festival" (MKMF) for the seventh consecutive time, and the grand awards (or daesang) were still the Best Popular Music Video and Music Video of the Year. For the first time, the event took place at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena with Shin Dong-yup as a returning host and Kim Ah-joong as his co-host.

This marked was the last year that the two daesang awards were given, lasting up to seven years. The categories for Best New Male and Female Artist were joined together as Best New Artist, while Music Video Acting award was added this year. A total of 11 Special Awards were handed, on the other hand, including the yearly Overseas Viewers' Award.

There were other notable guests on the event besides the presenters and performers, including the silhouette dancer Hyoyeon, who debuted as a Girls' Generation member later on, as well as the six MNet characters 보, 쳇, 섭리, 병, 구, and 371.

One notable performance during the event was when Clon member Kang Won Rae, who met an accident in 2000, stood up from his wheelchair and danced during their dance medley performance.
