“It is an honor to be invited to MAMA alongside these great Asian artists. Thank you Mnet for giving such a meaningful award. As the title of the award, we will try to sparkle more and live up to your expectations,” said Wanna One’s Yoon Ji-sung upon receiving the award.

“Mnet’s motto ‘Music makes one’ -- I feel that was exactly what tonight was all about. We are all so astonished by all these amazing, talented artists and I’m sure all the members learned a lot from them,” said Vernon of Seventeen. “But most of all, we couldn’t be here without our beloved Carats (Seventeen’s fan club). Thank you so much. I love you.”
