This year’s MAMA Awards is shaping up to be a visual spectacle that bridges animation and live performance. Chief producer Ma Doo-sik says the show will feature an “original stage that transcends the boundary between reality and animation.”
He shared that the iconic faceoff between the fictional groups Saja Boys and HUNTR/X will be brought to life by real K-pop idols, though their identities are still under wraps. “It’s a performance meant to unite all K-pop fans around the world,” Ma added.
The 2025 MAMA Awards will take place on Nov. 28 and 29 at Hong Kong’s newly opened Kai Tak Stadium, welcoming an expected 70,000 fans.
