- Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) Attendees List Released. As usual, it won’t be an end-of-year gathering if there were no drama involved. MBC and SBS are currently in hissy fits right now, annoyed with MAMA for forcing a good 98% of current active Kpop groups/stars to have to pick between attending the MAMAs and recording MBC’s Music Core or SBS’s Inkigayo. Ruh-roh. (omonatheydidnt)
