BTS are the reason K-pop groups started getting nominated at the BBMAs, VMAs, AMAs, PCAs, EMAs, and now probably the Grammys. They made it look so easy for them.
القرامي شاف اريرانق مكسر الدنيا هالسنة و بتس مو معطين مجال لاي فنان ويسترن قالوا يلا نضيف فئة للاسيويين و نحشرهم فيها و خص نص عشان اريرانق ما ياخذ حقه بفئة الالبومات
"You say, with those ridiculously big eyes, are they for real? For real?"
Namjoon pulled such a clever worldplay here. Big eyes - shocked eyes. Big eyes - round eyes of westerns, in opposition to the western stereotype about Asian almond shaped eyes being small
"Oh my god do I look too funny?"
"How are you so shameless
We care about manners, we aliens"
Throughout the whole song, BTS is subtly mocking racist westerns who act shocked that BTS had the AUDACITY to grow beyond Asia and show up in the western industry.
Time after time, it's proven reality.
oh BTS, you will always be a threat to everyone... they created a new category just to block you but nothing will ever be bigger than your legacy & they can't change your IMPACT!!
grammys doing all this just to keep bts away from the main categories and kpop stans calling it hybe payola as if we want this when this will benefit their khias more 😭
Notice how grammys announced this new category after seeing ARIRANG break major records that even bigger western artists wasn't able to break this year? Yeah, this is blatant racism.
Namjoon Aliens verse:
"It goes, let me, honey, talk about the business
Everybody know now where the K is
How far are we taking this? Dammit
Still cursing us out? Misfortune turns into blessings
Pardon me, Kim Gu seonsaengnim, tell me how you feel
I'm the only one who can speak English, but that is how we kill
You guys with those big eyes say
Are they for real? For real?"
