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)
that category is a guaranteed win for bts actually, with the grammy's basically saying "here damn. take ur trophy and shut up" but bts with their big dicks really said i think the FUCK not 😆😆😆
i dont think y’all realize how fucking cool it is to just openly announce you are not submitting for the grammys because of their mistreatment. it takes a lot to have that kind of courage. they said FUCK that racist organization. BTS are truly the most inspiring artists ever
BTS spent years opening doors that weren’t built for them. now they have the freedom to decide which ones are worth walking through. bts are truly living legends.
Critic Lim on #BTS’s decision “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.”
They are the only asian artist that have the nerve to do that! 👏🔥
#WeStandWithBTS
BTS announces they will not submit their music for the 2027 GRAMMY awards, following the Recording Academy’s addition of an Asian-focused category:
“I hope music itself can be heard and loved rather than being distinguished by region or language.”
[INFO] #BTS's comeback is already one of the biggest music moments of 2026.
The band that PAVED THE WAY for all others is back with new music and a tour. And even though the world has changed, no one has yet taken their place.
Without a crystal ball, we can predict some of this year's biggest pop culture moments.. the return of one of the biggest boy bands the world has ever had. We're talking, of course, about K-pop stars BTS.
It was 2022 when the seven took the stage together for the last time, announcing a hiatus that had sent fans into a tailspin. But now they're back. Four years isn't a long time in absolute terms, but it can feel like a hundred thousand when it comes to the music business.
On their side, however, BTS are unlike any other: we could say it's largely thanks to them that K-pop has become what it has become. Not just a musical genre, but a global phenomenon. They paved the way for everyone else who came after. But is that enough to guarantee the success of their comeback? In this case, yes.
During this hiatus, many groups have attempted to fill the void left by BTS. Think of Stray Kids or SEVENTEEN. Successful groups, no doubt. But no one, to date, has managed to take their place. Why? Because it's not just about sales or streams, but about global and cultural impact.
Many other bands have sold millions of albums and have successfully toured internationally, but BTS has set some truly historic records. They're the first Korean band to have a number one hit in the United States, for example. And even after a few years off, the seven-piece remain among the most listened to in the world. The reason is simple: they, more than anyone else, have become the benchmark when it comes to K-pop.
Many experts believe their comeback will coincide with a return of enthusiasm in the market: South Korean analysts and economists have pointed out that a single BTS concert in Seoul could generate over 1.2 trillion won (about 895 million dollars) and create thousands of jobs related to the entertainment and tourism sectors.
In short, everyone has extremely high expectations for this comeback. Will their new album define the future of the genre? Probably yes. Whatever happens, BTS's comeback is already one of the most important moments of the year. And it's yet to happen. Are you ready for it ?

Are you changing lightstick colors for the French artists? Or for Katy Perry? No. So why are we going through effort to change them for two random kpop artists? Bro who cares, just leave them purple. Those fandoms hate bts anyways.
