The Grammy Awards, America’s most prestigious music award, will be held tomorrow in our time.
BTS has been nominated for two years in a row, raising expectations.
Last year, I had to be satisfied with the selection of nominations, but this time, expectations for the award are rising with ‘Butter’, which performed the best.

Two songs topped the Billboard Hot 100 last year the most.
BTS’s ‘Butter’ and Adele’s ‘Easy on Me’ took first place 10 times each.
If you add the follow-up song ‘Permission to Dance’, BTS climbed the top row of the Billboard 11 times, literally making them the most loved artist last year.
’10 Weeks No. 1′ Butter nominated BTS for a Grammy for the second year in a row.
Same as last year in the ‘Best Pop Duo/Group Performance’ category.
BTS will be competing against justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Cold Play, Doja Cat, and other prominent singers.
The four main award nominations called ‘General Fields’ did not rise unfortunately, but looking at last year’s results, it is worth looking forward to winning this time.
BTS had a more mourning year than any other year, winning the Billboard Music Awards for 5 consecutive years and the American Music Awards for 4 consecutive years.
In particular, foreign media criticized the Grammy for not putting BTS on the main awards list, as it even received the ‘Artist of the Year’ award at the American Music Awards.
The American weekly magazine Time recently selected BTS’ agency Hive as one of the “100 Most Influential Companies in the World” ahead of the Grammy, and put BTS on the cover model.

If BTS succeeds in winning the award, they will set the record of being the first Asian artist to win a Grammy.
At the same time, the ‘Grand Slam’, which receives all three major American music awards, will also be achieved.
The interest of ARMYs and music fans is growing whether the Grammys will give a congratulatory gift to BTS, who will start a large-scale performance in Las Vegas five days after the awards ceremony.
