Boy group Monsta X is set to compete at the 2018 Asia Artist Awards.
On November 28, this year’s Asia Artist Awards are set to take place with a line-up composed of some of the hottest and most talented singer and actors. There, winners will be based on big data from Hallyu fans around the world, a facet that sets it apart from other year-end awards shows.
However, there are a limited number of artists and actors that are asked to join the ceremony with only 25 of each getting on the guest list. Today, it was announced that Monsta X has snagged one of the coveted spots for the show — and rightfully so.
The boy group debuted in 2015 with the mini album TRESPASS and has since established a reputation for hip-hop based songs with intense choreography. Moreover, with a rapidly expanding fan base throughout Asia, North America, and Europe Monsta X have already completed two world tours. Additionally, over this past year, the group have also received a lot of attention in both Japanese and American media with multiple interviews in both countries.
In particular, the iHeartRadio, a U.S. based media music media company invited the group to perform at their year-end show Jingle Ball. Notable, this is the only the second time that a Korean artist has been asked to attend, with the first by Psy. With this announcement, expectations are on the rise for the exceptional performances that this year’s awards show will have.
