In particular, pop legend Janet Jackson made an appearance this year, which surprised the fans. The history rewritten by MAMA still goes on. Even though new awards ceremonies are being created based on the performance of sound sources and record sales, MAMA has always been differentiated from others considering its aspirations for reaching the global market.
The last 10 years of MAMA have been the time to realize its image as the leader based on countless undertakings as well as evolutions and developments. MAMA is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year as the global music awards created by CJ based on its sheer will and continued efforts about the culture business. It made its first global expansion by hosting in Macau in , followed by Singapore, Hong Kong, and as many as three regions Vietnam, Japan, Hong Kong last year for the first time.
Now it has become the biggest music festival for everyone in the world beyond merely a music awards ceremony at the end of the year, as well as a global communication channel and a venue for expansion of Asian pop music.
This year is the first time it's returned to Seoul for a show since its start. Along with artists awards -- primary categories focused on Korea and other ones aimed at different regions throughout Asia -- MAMA created a professional category in to recognize behind the scenes talent.
In Seoul, the night was oriented about a new generation of K-pop acts, with all of the Korean performers of the night only beginning their careers this year or last year. Meanwhile, the main show in Hong Kong largely focused on the current state of the Korean music industry, beginning with opening performances from Korean hip-hop icons Tiger JK , who just released his final Drunken Tiger album, Yoonmirae with a member of Seventeen and rising pop diva Chung Ha , and by having a wide array of performers from across the K-pop and Korean hip-hop scenes.
This year, its connection to Mnet was more apparent than ever, as it predominantly featured Korean artists who had appeared on Mnet shows in recent years, such as the Produce and Show Me The Money competition shows. Starting this year, we added global music video counts as well.
To nominate as fairly as possible we also partnered with major charts in Asia. At the time, a rep told Billboard that it was to address votes created by people using automatic bots or other illegal programs to boost votes. They monitor the votes from all over the world in real-time to try and assuage any concerns of abuse, filtering out unusual activities. Yet he believed in us so much when we had nothing, and I want to give this honor to him. Thank you so much, we love you. Thank you. I love you.
When we did that, we realized that there are many people behind us and beside us. We wondered when so many people came to be by our side. So I want to say thank you to all of you. As I always say, the pride that you have for us is our pride. So next year, we will show you even better sides of ourselves, and repay you again with this award.
