Bruno Mars and ROSÉ are set to appear at the K-POP “2024 MAMA AWARDS” award ceremony.
MAMA 2024 will kick off at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, USA, on November 22, Japan time (21st, US local time), and continuing the excitement, the relay will take place on the same day, on 22 and 23, at Kyocera Dome Osaka, Japan.
Bruno Mars and ROSÉ collaborated on the pre-release single “APT.”, which was released before ROSÉ’s official comeback, and is creating a sensation not only through the top of the Korean music charts but also at the top of the global charts. In particular, after the two reached first place on Mnet’s “M COUNTDOWN” with “APT.”, they cleverly expressed their gratitude and joy to their fans on SNS. Not only are they enjoying the “Flat Game” around the world with their light melody, but also their funny and beautiful music video has received a lot of love whether it will be performed on stage.
The stage performance of Bruno Mars and ROSÉ, which will further increase the firepower of the much talked about “MAMA 2024 awards”, is possible on November 22, during “CHAPTER 1”, which will be held at Kyocera Dome Osaka, Japan.

What impact will the collaboration between Bruno Mars and ROSÉ have on the K-Pop industry?
Interview: Time.news Editor with K-Pop Music Expert
Editor: Welcome, everyone, to another exciting segment of Time.news! Today, I have the pleasure of sitting down with K-Pop music expert, Dr. Yeon-Soo Park. We’re here to discuss the highly anticipated collaboration between Bruno Mars and ROSÉ at the upcoming “2024 MAMA AWARDS.” Thank you for joining us, Dr. Park!
Dr. Park: Thank you for having me! It’s an honor to be here, especially with such thrilling news in the K-Pop world.
Editor: Absolutely! The 2024 MAMA AWARDS is generating quite a buzz, especially with Bruno Mars and ROSÉ set to perform together. What are your thoughts on this collaboration?
Dr. Park: This collaboration is not just significant because of the artists involved, but it also symbolizes the growing intersection of Western and K-Pop music. Bruno Mars has always been a powerhouse in the music industry, known for his catchy melodies and performance skills. ROSÉ, on the other hand, has brought a unique flair to K-Pop, so together, they create an exciting dynamic that appeals to both fan bases.
Editor: It’s fascinating to see how international collaborations enrich the music landscape. Their pre-release single, “APT.”, has been making waves on both Korean and global charts. What do you think is driving the success of this song?
Dr. Park: “APT.” showcases both artists’ strengths—ROSÉ’s emotive vocals paired with Bruno’s versatile pop style creates an infectious sound. Moreover, their ability to connect with fans on social media following their Mnet “M COUNTDOWN” win has fostered an even deeper connection. They exemplify how contemporary artists leverage social media to build anticipation and engage with listeners.
Editor: That’s an insightful point! Speaking of social media, their music video for “APT.” is receiving lots of love as well. In your opinion, how crucial is a well-produced music video in K-Pop today?
Dr. Park: In K-Pop, the music video is almost as important as the song itself. It’s a visual representation of the music, and high-quality production is a hallmark of the genre. A captivating music video not only enhances the listening experience but also encourages sharing on social platforms. It drives the song’s popularity through visual storytelling, making it a pivotal tool in modern music marketing.
Editor: It’s interesting how visual elements have become integral to music consumption. As we look forward to the performances at MAMA 2024, what do you expect to see on stage from Bruno Mars and ROSÉ?
Dr. Park: I anticipate a dynamic performance that highlights both artists’ strengths. They might incorporate choreography that resonates with K-Pop’s vibrant performance style while still maintaining Bruno’s iconic showmanship. Given their collaborative nature, I expect fun moments that will keep the audience engaged, along with some surprises—perhaps even a few spontaneous interactions!
Editor: That sounds thrilling! With the awards ceremony being held in Los Angeles and then continuing in Osaka, how important are these events for the global K-Pop industry?
Dr. Park: They are immensely important. Events like MAMA not only celebrate achievements in K-Pop but also showcase it on a global stage. Holding it in Los Angeles opens new doors for international exposure and collaboration, while returning to Osaka emphasizes K-Pop’s roots. This duality helps solidify the genre’s place in the global music ecosystem and fosters cross-cultural appreciation.
Editor: Thank you, Dr. Park, for sharing your insights! It’s clear that collaborations like Bruno Mars and ROSÉ’s are pivotal in shaping the future of music. We can’t wait to see what they bring to the MAMA 2024 stage.
Dr. Park: Thank you! I’m excited too, and I believe this performance will set a new benchmark for future international collaborations in K-Pop.
Editor: And that’s a wrap for today! Stay tuned for more updates on MAMA 2024 and other exciting news in the world of music. Thank you for joining us!
