There's no better way to kickstart the music award season than with the 33rd edition of the Seoul Music Awards. The live show was held at the Rajamangala National Stadium, Bangkok on January 2, 2024, and saw Lee Seung-gi, Tiffany Young, BamBam and Youngjae stepping up to be the MCs of the star-studded night.
The show was held to honour artists who have significantly contributed to the K-Pop industry. While the red carpet event began around 6 PM KST (2:30 PM IST), the main event started two hours post that.
There were musical performances by BamBam, Kang Daniel, KISS OF LIFE, NCT Dream, RIIZE, Sandara Park, STAYC, Tiffany Young, ZEROBASEONE, and many more.
