#BTS made their debut 13 years ago today.
They are the best selling Korean act in US history and the first all-Korean act to reach #1 on the Hot 100 and Billboard 200.
🐨:Man, you guys made me sentimental, that's why i turned the live on last night and I can't express my gratitude, you know, you guys showed us so much love, some real love. We got an award in 5 years again. First long american tour the final was better then perfect thank you so much. I just hope you guys can feel our love too. Let's see each other again someday, okay?
namjoon baby i promise you there are still people who care about lyrics. there are still many armys who spend hours and days analyzing your words, chasing the references, mulling over a single syllable. i promise you so, so many of us love bts' music because of your stories.

1. Artist of The Year
2. Favorite Pop Song
3. Favorite Pop Duo/Group

🐨 I think I reached the sad conclusion that people dont really listen to lyrics anymore. so if my words reach anyone I hope they’ll listen to this album one more time and truly pay attention to the stories we’re trying to tell personally,that’s still something I quietly hope for
🐨: 2026 the love of the american music awards goes tooooo ARMY!!!
🐥: congratulations!
🐨: Guys it's a beautiful night and we are making history together. felt like I don't know like kind of very strange feelings because it reminds me of 2017. 9 years ago when we first attended the AMAs. We had... we literally had no room so, we had to, like, fix our make up in the hallway. So when the stars maybe just passed by we were like"oh, hey I am sorry"/"we are sorry", but last night we used the biggest room. And everyone - every legend, every staff they were so nice and kind to us. And we know it's because of you guys. And yeah, it was really strange to experience it last night... I just wanna say this - you know, it's all thanks to you and we'll never forget the night we had at the AMAs. I love you.
