YG Entertainment’s executive producer Yang Hyun Suk is making a highly anticipated return to the 2025 MAMA Awards after 11 years.
Known for rarely appearing at official events, his presence has immediately sparked attention from fans and the music industry.
According to OSEN, Yang Hyun Suk has confirmed he will attend the awards on November 28–29 at Hong Kong Kai Tak Stadium.
The last time he appeared at MAMA was in 2014, when WINNER won the Rookie Award and thanked him, saying, “Thank you to President Yang Hyun Suk who always believed in and supported us.”
Industry insiders say that Yang Hyun Suk’s decision to return is tied to YG’s next-generation performance groups BABYMONSTER and TREASURE.
One source told OSEN, “Yang Hyun Suk decided to attend this year’s MAMA Awards to personally support and encourage both teams on stage.”
Since officially returning as executive producer in 2023, Yang Hyun Suk has been leading YG through a major shift, focusing on artist skill development and improving content quality.
This return to the basics of music production has strengthened YG’s presence in the entertainment industry and even helped the company turn its finances back to profit.
Yang Hyun Suk’s on-site presence at MAMA highlights his hands-on approach and dedication to YG’s artists.
Fans are especially excited to see him supporting BABYMONSTER, who have been expanding their global fanbase, and TREASURE, who continue to gain recognition as a performance-focused boy group during their ongoing world tour.
With Yang Hyun Suk back in the spotlight and personally attending the event, the 2025 MAMA Awards are expected to draw even more attention this year, making his return a major highlight of the global K-POP awards.
