@Calamighty4u they’ve already accomplished. BTS have made their own history, on their own terms, and watching all seven stand together and refuse to chase an institution that never knew how to respect their impact? THAT is the kind of power that makes me ridiculously proud to be ARMY
@Calamighty4u India 🇮🇳
How proud am I of BTS? Insanely. They went from being the first K-pop group to break through doors the industry kept closed, to reaching a point where they could simply say “we’re not playing your game anymore.” 😭 They didn’t need a Grammy nomination to validate what++

the fact arirang was so much bigger than any of their albums still they decided to not submit it to the grammys bc they cant allow someone to limit their music to a category
this clearly shows how bts see music as an art rather than as something that just sells
imagine telling people “yeah I won my first grammy because BTS had the balls to reject discrimination in the music industry while I chose not to. Oh, and my trophy might as well have ‘bts charity' engraved on it.”
and notice how everything’s written in korean and there’s not a single english word in sight. they really said you wanna know what i’m saying, go ahead and translate it then
Critic Lim praises BTS' decision to skip this year's GRAMMY submissions:
— “The fact that a single Asian artist has rebelled against a massive awards ceremony and opened a forum for public discourse demanding change demonstrates immense influence in itself.”
Major award shows which introduced K-pop/Asian related categories, majorly due to the impact of BTS:
• GRAMMYs (2027)
• iHeartRadio Music Awards (2024)
• Billboard Music Awards (2023)
• American Music Awards (2022)
• EMAs (2021)
• VMAs (2019)
HYBE reportedly clarified that BTS' decision to not submit for this year's Grammys was not part of a label-wide boycott.
The company said other HYBE artists will continue submitting their work individually, while BTS chose not to submit after careful deliberation, saying the decision was made to "protect the status and pride of the kpop industry as a whole."

BTS was the reason K-pop had to be taken seriously on that stage. They opened doors, created conversations, and changed what was considered “global.” & now they’re choosing their music over a system that still tries to put artists into boxes... That’s why it will always be BTS
