Hello. I'm an actor, Yoo Ah In.
I'd like to talk about challenge with you today.
I've always been fascinated by the universe.
It was because I could see it, but couldn't reach it.
It held a lot of secrets no one knew about.
I was curious about the unknown world.
Even though the environment limited my imagination
my curiosity went on and lead up to the desire to create art.
Today, I'm continuing my mission
by working on a project on the universe with other artists.
And there is another person here today who wasn't afraid of challenge.
A boy who only knew how to rap ended up
becoming the winner of "Show me the money 5"
and became the musician everyone loves.
The performance I am about to introduce tonight
is also about you overcoming the fear of the unknown and finding yourself.
That's what we'd like to achieve from the performance tonight.
We will break the mold that binds us to stereotypes.
Just like the universe that goes on endlessly
we will talk about the endless possibilities.
I want you to pay attention to us, this stage, and especially yourself.
And challenge yourself.
Dreams belong to the dreamers.
Hello, universe.
It's the BewhY.
Hong Kong, make some noise.
[EXO will come out shortly.]
Next award, Best Collaboration.
Your presenters' actions speak louder than words.
Jang Hyuk and Hwang Jung Eum.
Hello, I'm Jang Hyuk. Nice to meet you.
Hello, I'm Jung Eum. Nice to meet you.
We just watched Yoo Ah In, BewhY, and Yiruma.
It was a one-of-a-kind collaboration you can only see here.
- It was amazing, wasn't it? - I agree. It was fantastic.
That's all I can say right now.
It was the combined effort of different artists.
Now will you present the award for Best Collaboration?
Sure. It's no exaggeration to say that two mega trends were combined.
Meet the nominees for Best Collaboration.
All the nominees are a great group of special singers.
Please present the winner, Jung Eum.
Yes, I will present the winner now.

Rap has become more popular
so we often see rap songs reach the top spot on music charts these days.
Hyuk, you also like rap, don't you?
Yes, I even sang my own rap song in early 2000.
I wonder who will win the award among your fellow rappers.
- Let's all meet the nominees. - Shall we?
All five nominees are very good.
Jang Hyuk, now please present.

Hello.
I'm still far from the artist I dreamed of becoming.
So I'm rushing things these days
because I want to show more.
It was too early to receive an award.
I don't know what to say, but thank you.

I get pleasure whenever I listen to their music.
I hope people get similar feelings when they listen to my music.
I will continue to live the way I want. Thank you. Thank you, God.

Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm Park Bo Gum.
Hello everyone, I'm Kim Yoo Jung.
Hello, I'm Kim Yoo Jung.

I was very honored to be part of this show.
By the way, you made an appearance with some other male singer.

Okay, before we go.

Hell yeah.
Before we go, I would like to ask you to do one favor for somebody special.
On this side of the... All the way from here over, I'd like you to say
MAMAMA MAMAMA. MAMAMA MAMAMA.
Three, four. MAMAMA MAMAMA. MAMAMA MAMAMA.
MAMAMA MAMAMA. Got it? MAMAMA MAMAMA.
And on this side you say
MAMAMA MAMAMA. Make you leave, make you leave.
Come on, come on. Okay.
Here we go. Three, four.
MAMAMA MAMAMA. Make you leave, make you leave.
Whatever.
Thank you.
[Chinese]
One of the things in my life that I'm the most proud of
is that
I had the good fortune to have been born
at a time
when I was able to play a part and witness the evolution of
modern American music.
Move guys, come on.
And I was able to play a part and witness the evolution of
modern American music
and watch every culture
in the world adapt that music
as its Esperanto.
Mine has been a journey that has carried me all over the world
and put me...
Come on, guys.
in the recording studio with many of my idols.
I mean idols like Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker
Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie
Duke Ellington, Billy Eckstine
Benny Carter, Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson. All of them.
And there is one irrefutable truth that I have learned during that time.
And that is the power of music
to bring the people of the world together
for the betterment of mankind and womankind
proves itself time and time again.
I hold this belief because I have spent a lifetime
witnessing it firsthand.
From the time that I first traveled around the world
as a 19-year-old trumpet player
and arranger with Lionel Hampton in 1951
to being the musical director for Dizzy Gillespie in the far east
at the State Department goodwill tour.
The first United States sponsored goodwill tour.
To the united...
Unifying power of "We Are The World" in 1985.
Joining my brothers Bono and Bob Geldof
to lead a delegation to the Vatican
on behalf of a...
What are these guys?
To save the kids in the Middle East.
And most recently
together recording artists from North Africa and the Middle East
to record a song of hope for a better future
for their children in the wake of the Arab spring.
I have witnessed people come together
of all shades, colors, and backgrounds
all over the world to open their souls
and share in the power and joy that music brings to one’s life.
From Chicago, to Seattle, to New York
the “chitlin’ circuit,” Sweden, to Paris, Beijing
Hong Kong, Shanghai, Korea to the Middle East.
I have watched the power of music
and in particular America’s music
jazz and blues
to make men forget about and women forget about
their differences and come together.
Music brings you together.
To make their hearts swell to the point
where you would think it was going to jump through their chests.
To make them laugh, make them cry
jump, dance, think, and love.
You know what I'm saying?
Hello. Thank you.
It is a power that does not recognize color
class, religion, or geographic boundaries.
It is universal. Music is.
We all want it. It may be the only absolute power in the world.
Music truly makes us one. All of us just one, together.
And God bless it.
It is universal, and it may be the only absolute power in the world.
Music truly makes us one. All of us one.
Come on, man.
Move in.
- G-Dragon. - 2ne1.
- 2pm. - I'm thrilled.
- The Album of the Year. - The Song of the Year.
- The Artist of the Year is... - 2ne1.

I will be a good artist.
EXO.
I love you, EXO.

- We will always try our best. - Thank you.
We will try to live up to this award.
Thank you.
Time to name the winner of the first MAMA grand prize.
Hotels Combined Song of the Year.
To do that is an actor whose acting chops
are only surpassed by his culinary prowess.
Cha Seung Won.
This is amazing.
The vibe here is just amazing.
This is the world festival.
It is my great honor to
be part of the 2016 Mnet Asian Music Awards.
I watched all the performances done by many artists here on stage.

created an magnificent view.
The reason that I came here today is
to announce the most loved song of 2016.
It is the Hotels Combined Song of the Year Award.
To find out what were
the popular songs of this year
we will look at the VCR.

The next MAMA grand prize, Hotels Combined Artist of the Year.
Your presenter, an actress who can take on any role and make it look easy.
Ha Ji Won.
Hello, it's nice to see you all. I am Ha Ji Won.
Music plays a major role in acting.
It helps you to immerse yourself into the character.
And you need music also
to film emotional scenes that are filled with details.
It's so good to hear that 2016 K-pop was filled
with songs from various genres and the appearances of new artists.
There were many issues that were worth noting.
Both our eyes and ears were
fully entertained by K-pop this year.
We could say that this was possible
because many artists worked hard to win fans' hearts.
Today, I will be presenting
Hotels Combined Artist of the Year Award.
This award is for the artist who always fills the stage with
creative performances and music.
I wonder who will win the honor.
First, let's meet the nominees.
From that VCR alone
we are already getting strong responses from the fans.
Everyone. I really want to give this award
to all the artists whom all of you love.
Okay.
The winner of the year is listed
on this cube in my hand.
I'm sorry that I can't give this award to everyone.
Okay then, 2016 Mnet Asian Music Awards.
Hotels Combined Artist of the Year.
I will announce the winner.
The winner is...
BTS.
Congratulations.
[After introducing "Fire," their second album took first place]
[on 97 different music charts around the world.]
[They are the first Korean group to make a UK music chart.]
A.R.M.Y.
Thank you so much.
We have been though a lot since we made our debut.
A lot of people said we wouldn't make it.
Thank you for always supporting us.
This is what we have always dreamed of.
Thank you so much for making our dream come true.
Thank you for always guiding us, Producer Bang Si Hyuk.
Board Members. Big Hit Entertainment.
Thank you, P Dog and Slow Rabbit, for composing great songs.
Supreme Boy, and our teacher Sung Duk.
Sang Hyun, and staff.
Thank you to all of our staff.
Thank you for making our dream come true.
And.
A.R.M.Y all over the world.
Let's fly with our beautiful wings in 2017 as well.
BTS loves A.R.M.Y as always. Thank you very much.
Thank you. [Chinese]
Thank you. I really love you all.
- Thank you. - I wish our stage and our performance
could give hope to a lot of people.
I hope that our stage, our performance, and our music
could be the hopes and dreams for many people around the world.
Thank you very much. We will do our best. Thank you.
Thank you.
And now, the final grand prize.
Hotels Combined Album of the Year.
Taking center stage to present the award
one of the four heavenly kings of Hong Kong.
Please welcome Leon Lai.
Hello.
I'm Leon Lai. It's nice to see you all.
Hello. Thank you for coming to this award ceremony today.
I really enjoy listening to K-pop.
It's a great experience for me to be here tonight.
I have a small company.
There are many new employees.
Young women who have pictures of artists sitting here today on their monitors.
While the male colleagues
female group artist pictures scrolling as their screensavers.
So I doubt they actually do work.
But the way they show their love for the artists is worth appreciation.
So I've decided not to fire them, but I won't give them a raise either.
Okay, without further ado. Enjoy.
Okay.
2016...
Hotels Combined Album of the Year.
EXO.
[Their 3rd full album EX'ACT in June, and repackaged album LOTTO in August.]
[Combined, this collection became the best selling album of 2016.]
[More than one billion albums were sold.]
[Sold over a million copies.]
First of all, thank you.
We have received the most precious award
that we wouldn't change for the world.
I think that this was possible
because of our fans
all around the world
and our EXO-L.
Thanks to our fans
we can spend our days in joy because all of you are here for us.
We are happy at this very moment.
And we think happy days are coming our way.
To keep this happiness with us
we promise you that we will do our best
and show our best performances on stage.
Thank you.
First of all.
I want to say
thank you.
To be honest
there were times when I was unsure of myself
and there were also times when I was disappointed in myself. I was worried.
But for four consecutive years...
Four consecutive years.
The fact that we could get awards for four consecutive years...
About that... That makes me think that
I was worrying over nothing.
I think today is
a monumental day for us.
Today...
Let today be the start of our history.
Please let us write a history with all of you.
To write our history
we will do our best next year and many years to come. Thank you.
The microphone is a bit high for me.
This is what I think.
In 2016
we didn't do anything.
We wouldn't not have been able to achieve anything if it weren't for EXO-L.
Thanks to our EXO-L
we could get such a honorable award. Thank you so much.
To repay all the support and love all of you sent our way
in 2017
we will show our love for you guys. Thank you.
There's a Chinese saying
"The changing tides makes it inevitable for the new to replace to the old."
I hope EXO can change the latter part of this saying with our hard work.
Let us always stand at the peak!
Thank you, Mr. Lee Soo Man, for producing EXO.
Thank you, Mnet and MAMA
for giving us such a honorable award for past four years.
We are thankful to a lot of people.
My special thanks goes to our EXO-L.
Today is a glorious day.
We are sharing our youth, our 20s, with you guys.
I believe that you are youthful as long as you keep your dream.
I want to share my dreams and keep my youth for many years to come.
Thank you. We are one. EXO, we love you.
Asia premier music award show.
Uniting us all into one.
2016 Mnet Asian Music Awards.
It definitely was a time
that united us all into one.
All the global fans, music lovers
the global tv audience, and artists
who honored us with their presence.
Tonight we shared some great moments
by communicating with melodies and music
that shone in 2016.
In the name of MAMA
we promise to bring you all steady evolution
and progress in music and stage.
Hope everyone had a great time, and remember Music Makes One.
