Watch out, because this year′s Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) may be coming to your TV set.

The 2012 MAMA, which is set to take place on November 30, will be aired in 85 countries across the world including Korea and Hong Kong, targeting more than 2.3 billion viewers.


This will be made possible with the help of Hong Kong′s TVB, China′s biggest channel Hunan TV and the international channel FIC (FOX International Channels) as media partners. The channels will relay the event live to a total of 16 countries including America, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore and Australia, and air a recorded version sometime later in 69 countries including France, Finland, Greece, the Netherlands, the Arab Emirates and Bangladesh.

Outside of these channels, 20 online platforms such as Global Mnet.com will make 2012 MAMA available everywhere else.


The coverage marks the biggest amount for a Korean program. Last year′s MAMA was aired across 20 countries and 13 online platforms.

Executive secretary Seo Hyun Dong, who is in charge of 2012 MAMA, said, "This year′s MAMA will be aired live in main channels across Asia. This year′s amount of coverage has expanded compared to last year′s, as it′s started to reach out to Europe, South America and even the Middle East. As if to prove MAMA′s increased influence and the growth of K-Pop, many overseas channels showed interest in the event."

He added, "This doesn′t only mean that MAMA will be aired in more countries, but also that MAMA has opened up a new way to share Korea and Asia′s songs and their cultures to the world."

2012 MAMA will take place on November 30 in Hong Kong.

I hope they don't block countries that will later show the recorded version from their live streams.

FOX doesn't list it in the schedule for Finland though. And even if it would, it'd be middle of the day so those who have school or work wouldn't be able to watch anyways.

I checked the whole week forward, it's not listed. Usually they can't add in 3 hour show whenever they want not with our broadcasting system.

Something else was supposed to run in Finland before too and it never aired. It was just friendly notice, no need to pick up shit for that.

But it says on the article the recording will be played "sometime later", I kind of understood it might mean days and not just mere hours. Idek I basically just found it funny Finland even gets mentioned, sorry if the joke wasn't clear enough.

But then again Finland is good for mentioning a random country among 85 where MAMA will be aired in...

What's the point of airing it later for international audience ? The rest of the world want to see this shit live too, Mnet!

ooh well I'm recording. that means they have to deliver the goods they've been holding back since 2009 I think.

If it goes through, it's not real until shit gets real

So technically I can watch this since it will be at some ungodly hour in the morning, but what channel will it be on in the states? I'm confused.

I was thinking of watching it streaming but thinking about the time zone differences, if the red carpet starts 5:00pm KST, for me that would be like 4:00am Friday morning and I have school :/
