The second and final day of this year’s 2022 MAMA Awards has concluded in Osaka, Japan!
On November 30, Day 2 of the 2022 MAMA Awards took place at Osaka’s Kyocera Dome, with Park Bo Gum serving as MC.
During the show’s Day 1 event on November 29, the awards for Yogibo Worldwide Icon of the Year, Favorite New Artist, Worldwide Fans’ Choice (Bonsang), Yogibo Chill Artist, and Favorite Asian Artist were handed out.
In addition to winning the Yogibo Worldwide Icon of the Year award on Day 1, BTS was given the special MAMA Platinum award for creating “a global cultural phenomenon beyond K-pop.” This Platinum award also recognizes BTS’s MAMA achievements over the years in all four Daesang (Grand Prize) categories, including Worldwide Icon of the Year, Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year.
While BTS took home three of four Daesangs this year, Song of the Year was awarded to IVE. This makes the rookie girl group, who won Favorite New Artist on Day 1, only the third group to win a Daesang and a rookie award at MAMA in the same year.
