The MAMA Awards, a major global showcase for k-pop, will stream live exclusively on Samsung TV Plus in the U.S. and other territories.

The awards, whose name is short for Mnet Asian Music Awards, are sometimes called the Grammys of Asia. This year, they will be handed out during a three-day extravaganza from Thursday through Saturday. Performances, presentations and interviews will stream on a k-pop channel recently launched on Samsung TV Plus. The channel, available in the U.S., Canada, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Brazil and Mexico, resulted from a partnership between the smart TV platform and Korean entertainment giant CJ ENM.
