i can’t believe i just saw bts with my own two eyes, im so happy 😭🥹🥹🥹🥹 and to have barricade standing d1 and barricade seated d2 i am so blessed, i miss them so much already please come back soon 🥹😭🫶💜
i had a much better time in seats than floor bc u can see the entire performance, alto it was absolutely lovely to hold eye contact with jimin for a great five seconds 😜
i'm gonna say it. i feel like some of yall don't actually want to experience bts in concert and choose to be unhappy. because there are so many other options besides floor and it shouldn't have to be this difficult if you truly want to be at the concert.
Grammy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. responds to BTS’ decision to not submit their music for the 2027 awards, following the introduction of an Asian-focused category:
“I am saddened to hear that BTS has chosen not to participate in the Grammy Awards process this year, but as a music creator, I understand and respect their decision. […] I do want to clarify something that seems to be getting lost in the conversation. The Asian Pop category was created to celebrate the depth, diversity and extraordinary growth of pop artistry coming out of Asia. The spirit of this new category is to shine a dedicated spotlight on these important artists. More categories mean more artists’ work is recognized. It’s never to divide, but to expand who is recognized by our 15,000 Grammy voters. I also want to be very clear: submitting music in a genre category such as Asian Pop, or Jazz or Country does not exclude an artist from also submitting and being considered in the General Field categories, including Record of the Year, Album of the Year and Song of the Year. Those categories remain open to any eligible recording, regardless of genre. Recognition in a genre category and recognition in the General Field are not mutually exclusive. An artist can absolutely pursue both.”
