Every artist you named was born and raised in the US, identify and marketed as american artists, sing in english and has never released music in asian language. there's a big difference between being asian and being an american with asian ancestry.
Mind you BTS have been on hiatus for 4 years. Kpop (and other industries across the continent of Asia) never stopped releasing music
But it’s only when BTS return that this “Asian pop” category is introduced
To say that this is about inclusivity is just a bold faced lie
Madhesh is burning & the least Balen Shah and his home minister can do is deal with this issue with the utmost sensitivity and urgency. Don't hide behind a Facebook status. It won't work everytime.
