BTS remains an unmatched global favourite, commanding a massive, dedicated ARMY across the world. As fans take every moment to celebrate their incredible musical journey, the seven members recently made headlines by addressing a major industry decision to skip the Grammy Awards. As one of the world's biggest musical acts, their choice for integrity over accolades is becoming a landmark move that challenges industry standards.

There are, in fact, clear behind the seven-member group's bold statement regarding major international award submissions is backing their decision.

All BTS seven members, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook, issued a joint statement across their personal social media platforms. The group announced that they will not submit their record-breaking music for consideration at the 69th Grammy Awards. They expressed deep gratitude to their fans while emphasizing that art should transcend geographical boundaries and linguistic distinctions.

“We have decided not to submit for Grammy consideration this year. We hope our music can be heard and loved for what it is, rather than being divided by region or language. We thank Army and everyone who has always stood by us,” the seven shared the statement individually on their Instagram stories in Korean script.

This significant announcement arrived shortly after the Recording Academy introduced a brand new Best Asian Pop Music Performance category. The new award aims to recognize artistic excellence within Asian markets, requiring meaningful usage of Asian languages; however, the new section has been largely believed to have been created to specifically keep K-Pop acts from contending with the more neutral, mainstream music.

Amidst this, BTS' previous nominations in major categories for the awards create a glaring contradiction to the category, proving their massive global appeal on equal footing with Western acts.
