The 2023 Asia Artist Awards (AAA) unfolded in a spectacular fashion on December 14 at the grandiose Philippine Arena in Bulacan.

2PM’s Lee Junho emerged as a double champion, clinching the coveted Actor of the Year Daesang for the second consecutive year. NewJeans, on the other hand, secured a remarkable double victory, claiming both the Singer of the Year and Song of the Year Daesangs for their sensational hit, ‘Ditto’.
SEVENTEEN, the powerhouse K-pop group, triumphed in multiple categories, earning the Album of the Year Daesang as a full group and, through their unit BSS, the Performance of the Year accolade.
