PSY, JY Park and Pet Shop Boys- the spectacular night at MAMA 2015.


Two big idol groups Big Bang and EXO were the biggest winners of the night for MAMA (Mnet Asian Music Awards) 2015 held in Hong Kong. However the highlights went to the elderly veteran singers- men aged 30-40 who are no other than the talented Park Jin Young (CEO of JYP Entertainment) and superstar PSY performed on stage.

Also not forgetting the uncles of British boy group Pet Shop Boys were there to perform their hit songs. They were once in fame after performing the 2002 World Cup Song- Go West.


And here are the winners for MAMA 2015:

To be honest, some of the awards are sort of made up and doesn't even exist at all. Asian style and next generation artist? EXO and Big Bang swapped most of the awards leaving none for the newcomers. 
I am a little back with K-pop and haven't been following much so I hardly even listen to their latest songs except for those featured in dramas...OST..etc.

Congrats to all the winners...I am sure this year SM Ent. will be feeling happy since most of their artists took home the awards.
