Global girl group A2O MAY has been selected as an artist representing Chinese culture and arts in the United States. LAPost, an English-language media outlet based in Los Angeles, included A2O MAY as the only figure from the music industry in the 2025 annual Top 10 cultural and artistic activities list of the Southern California Chinese community.

LAPost derived the final results by comprehensively analyzing various data indicators such as web search rankings, social media traffic, and mention indices based on social influence and international dissemination power. The media praised A2O MAY as a symbolic record of a girl group composed entirely of Chinese members entering the mainstream American music market.

This year, A2O MAY solidified their presence in the global music market, including the United States and China, by releasing "BOSS," "B.B.B (Bigger Badder Better)," and their first EP "PAPARAZZI ARRIVE." In particular, "B.B.B" attracted attention in Korea for its addictive music and unique rhythm called the "curry beat."

"PAPARAZZI ARRIVE" ranked joint first with Justin Bieber on the MediaBase TOP 40 Airplay "Most Added" weekly chart of the U.S. mainstream radio chart. Additionally, it ranked 8th on the Billboard Emerging Artists chart dated November 22.

A2O MAY performed on the stage of the major U.S. music festival "Wango Tango" in May and participated in the official pre-show of the year-end representative event Jingle Ball, "Jingle Ball Preshow: Z100 - All Access Lounge Stage," held in New York on the 12th, delivering an impressive performance to the local audience.

Along with this, A2O MAY won three rookie awards at global award ceremonies: the 2025 Weibo Music Awards Newcomer Group of the Year, the 2025 Asian Hall of Fame New Artist Award, and the Weibo "Night of Competition" Annual Competition Newcomer Group Award.

A2O MAY held their first fan meeting "MAYnia Arrive" in Shanghai in November and actively communicates with fans through the online live event "Girl's Night with MAYnia" on December 20, celebrating their first debut anniversary.
