In the music industry, analysts suggest that BTS's declaration could influence the moves of the other awards ceremonies, given that the four major U.S. music awards have recently all begun operating dedicated K-pop categories .
This is because other awards ceremonies faced similar criticism from fandoms when they established K-pop-exclusive genres prior to the Grammys.
