The Mnet Asian Music Awards will be held this November 22, 2013, again in Hong Kong! Last October 24, the voting on the MAMA website started for many different awards. I have my own picks on each categories and I would like to share them in this post. As I'm making this post, I am voting in the website, so why don't you join me in picking the most awesome among all the K-pop celebrities?
Again, these are my choices, and I'm just sharing them with you all. This post will be text-heavy as I'm writing this after a really long and tiring trip.

Best Male Group
My pick: Shinhwa

Best Dance Performance - Female Solo
My pick: CL
G.NA
Seo In Young

*All of these girls are really fierce and awesome, but I had to choose the baddest female for this one.*
Best Dance Performance - Male Group
My pick: EXO

Girl's Day
Girls' Generation
SISTAR
4minute

Best Vocal Performance - Male
My pick: Lee Seung Gi
2AM
Lee Seung Chul
Cho Yong Pil
K.will
*I'm probably just biased in voting for this one.*
Best Vocal Performance - Female
My pick: Lee Hi
Davichi
Lyn
IU

My pick: G-Dragon
Busker Busker

Cho Yong Pil
*Again, I'm rooting for GD all the way!*
Best Original Soundtrack
My pick: Gu Family Book OST - Suzy
IRIS 2 OST - Davichi
That Winter, The Wind Blows OST - The One
Master's Sun OST - Yoon Mi Rae
I Hear Your Voice OST - Jung Yup
*I didn't choose Suzy just because she's Suzy, but because first, I love Gu Family Book, and second, the song's really great and it fits the show perfectly.*
Artist of the Year
My pick: G-Dragon
*I choose him probably because I want him to win any of the awards that he's nominated in. However, I believe that there are some artists that would be favored a lot other than GD*
BC - Union Pay Song of the Year
My pick: G-Dragon (Crooked)
*Crooked is a really good song and it's probably my most favorite among the songs in his new album. That's why I think GD's Crooked deserves this award*
That concludes the list of my picks for this year's MAMA. I hope I will be able to watch MAMA 2013 live on small screen or on the live stream on their website. I wish everyone luck, and I'm definitely looking forward to their performances!
