Honestly, it feels… just right, you know?

This isn't some fleeting appearance, mind you. This upcoming gig will mark an impressive — indeed, an almost iconic — seventh time for Park Bo Gum to helm the MAMA Awards. His journey with the prestigious ceremony began way back in 2017, and since then, he's practically become synonymous with the event's elegant opening and closing moments.

For 2025, the anticipation is already palpable, especially with the unique dual-chapter format. Chapter 1, which Park Bo Gum will lead, is scheduled for November 22 and 23 in Japan. Then, a week later, Chapter 2 will unfold on November 29 and 30, also in Japan, with its host still shrouded in a delightful bit of mystery.

So, as the global music community gears up for what promises to be another unforgettable series of nights, the return of Park Bo Gum feels like a warm embrace. His presence simply adds that extra layer of elegance and genuine excitement to an event already brimming with talent and passion. We're certainly ready for it, aren't we?
