MAMA 2022 has officially ended, the winners of the awards have been announced. As expected, the highest category Daesang cannot be without the name of BTS.
Although the members couldn't attend this year except for j-hope, he really did a good job representing the group. j-hope also gave great speeches for important awards at this year's MAMA.
But most especially, there is a speech with Jin's contribution in it. Not only ARMYs but also j-hope was really touched by Jin's last words to his fans.
It is not surprising that the MAMA 2022 awards ceremony is a very successful event for the BTS members. Along with j-hope's epic performance and his individual awards, the group has also won many major awards and continues to maintain their track record for many years.
BTS won the award Worldwide Icon of The Year, Album of the Year, Artist of the Year, bringing the total number of Daesangs received at MAMA 2022 to 3. The total number of Daesangs BTS received in their career is 70.
As the only artist in history to have "all-kill" Daesang at MAMA for 3 consecutive years (2019 - 2021), BTS received an additional MAMA Platinum trophy - winning the group that consecutive all-kills major awards at the event. MAMA for 3 years in a row. Netizens joked that this award was created only for BTS to receive, or it will take a long time to find a new owner.
With this important award, it's no surprise that j-hope seemed very emotional during his speech on behalf of his team members. However, he is not alone, j-hope invited another BTS member to speak in a very special way - Jin over the phone.
At the end of the speech, j-hope told ARMYs that he also has a special gift for them. He then explained that: "I actually have something prepared for you, our Jin hyung said that there's something he wanted to say to you guys! So I'll be giving him a call!"
j-hope then brought out his phone and called Jin and he answered the phone immediately. Of course, when hearing Jin's voice, any ARMYs watching live or watching online can't hold back their tears because he will be enlisting in the army soon and it will take a long time before they can listen to his voice again.
Jin called out ARMYs' names and said a lot. He said that: "Hello everyone, I'm BTS' Jin! I'm really really thankful that we were able to receive such an honorable award. And our ARMYYYYY!!! Thank you!! And thank you to our members too!"
Not only that, but Jin also gave a message to ARMYs during the winter when he couldn't be with them. Jin said with tenderness: "ARMY, the weather is getting colder, so please dress warmly when you go out. I will be enlisting soon, so I won't be able to be here for a while... I'll go to the military and come back safely ARMY!!"
As he listened to Jin say these words to ARMYs, it seemed like j-hope had to hold back his tears. Sadness seems to permeate j-hope's emotions and ARMYs really can't stop crying when they see his feelings.
Many people firmly believe that going to MAMA 2022 alone made j-hope feel very empty, and hearing about Jin's farewell when he was about to send him off to the army made j-hope even more emotional. j-hope probably has the same feelings as ARMYs and really loves our precious Jin.
After the call, ARMYs were also moved, sharing how much it means to hear Jin's voice. Along with that, they also shared their appreciation for the fact that j-hope had to deliver these speeches alone after his performance:
- Oh my god I'm crying
- Oh Jin. God bless you and keep you warm, happy and safe.
- Guys look at hobi's eyes while listening to his hyung's announcement abt military
- Hobi's looks sec's away from bursting into tears
- My precious boys deserve so much better!!!

- Hobi looks like he wants to cry
- The music in bg making me cry more
- J-hope is holding his tears
- Hobi holds back his tears
- THIS IS MY LAST STRAW
- i am ugly crying just why
Although Jin wasn't there and he's leaving soon, the idol wanted to interact with ARMY at such a special event. However, despite being alone, j-hope was really a solid support for the members and perfectly conveyed all the emotions of the group.
