Day one of the 2024 MAMA Awards in LA has come under serious criticism.

On Korean forum websites, netizens posted what they expected from the event looking at previous years…

Compared to the setup of the LA event and the overall feel. The difference was noted in the size of the venue, the size of the stage, and the scale of production. Many also noticed that the majority of the acts present were newer idols, while the “big” idols had been booked for the Japan dates.

International fans noticed the difference, sharing how, considering the size of the venue, it didn’t even feel like a huge awards show but a small concert. Others shared their sadness for the artists at the show and how it was on a very different scale from what they expected in Japan.
