Well, SM did boycott the whole show. Mnet invited DBSK though, cause they should get an award and 3 members of DBSK attend the show.
Those members are those who want to make individual activities outside of the contract with SM and are also allowed to due to an court's decision.
SM is mad about it now, cause those 3 members of DBSK weren't allowed to come to the show officially.
That's the really, really short version of this serious case, it's not confirmed how this'll end.
