The 10th Asia Artist Awards celebrates its 10th anniversary in Kaohsiung. It has transformed into a massive two-day festival this year, and took over the Kaohsiung National Stadium with more than 55,000 fans filling the venue.
Organized by Star News, the main awards ceremony took place on December 6, starting with a red carpet at 3 PM KST and a five-hour live show from 5 PM. The second night, December 7, is dedicated to ACON 2025 Anniversary Festa, a performance-focused festival featuring more than 50 stages over 210 minutes.
Both days use a huge 360-degree stage setup designed to give fans a completely immersive experience from every angle.
Jang Wonyoung of IVE continued her streak as the face of the AAA, returning for her fifth consecutive year as MC. She even won Symbol of AAA for her long association with Asia Artist Awards. She was joined by Lee Junho of 2PM, who may be hosting the ceremony for the first time but is already a familiar figure at the event thanks to consecutive Actor of the Year wins in 2022 and 2023.
On the first day, fans witnessed major performances from major K-pop groups such as Stray Kids, LE SSERAFIM, ATEEZ, IVE, RIIZE, MONSTA X, CRAVITY, xikers, TWS, and many more.
AAA 2025 is being streamed across multiple platforms. Weverse is offering a global live stream with subtitles for most countries, although it’s not available in Taiwan, Vietnam, Japan, or Thailand.
On the music side, Stray Kids, IVE, ATEEZ, Wonyoung, IVE, LE SSERAFIM, WOODZ, and more took home major awards. ALLDAY PROJECT, CORTIS, and KiiiKiii received Rookie of the Year Awards.
For acting, Park Bo Gum, YoonA, Kim Yoo Jung, IU, and more bagged several awards. Park Bo Gum and IU were awarded Best Couple for their chemistry in When Life Gives You Tangerines.
Note: AAA ceremony is still underway, and the winners will be updated when more categories are announced.
