Group BTS will be Asia's first "United States of America Billboard Music Awards" (hereinafter referred to as BBMA) stage performer.
BTS will attend the 2018 Billboards Music Awards in United States of America Los Angeles on the 20th (local time).
BTS has once again been nominated for the 'Top Social Artist Award' following last year, and this year it will be invited as 'Performer' and will be released for the first time on the regular 3rd album LOVE YOURSELF 'Tear'.
The Asian singer's comeback stage on the United States of America Billboards stage is unprecedented and has attracted worldwide attention. Among them, the records of the first 'BTS' accumulated so far are also being reexamined.
BTS released its mini album LOVE YOURSELF 'Her' last September, and 'Her' album first entered the 'Billboards200' with the Kpop group's top record of 7th. Since then, "Her" has maintained its chart-in for a total of 18 weeks.
The 'MIC Drop' remix, which was released following 'Her' activities, was also the first in the Kpop group and ranked 28th on the 'Hot 100' chart. BTS Sugar said, "This year's BTS is aiming to enter the Billboards' Hot 100 chart." Beyond the goal of entering the chart, the MIC Drop remix stayed on the chart for 10 consecutive weeks and set the record for the longest chart in the Kpop group.
Proving the influence of these BTSs, Billboards opened the BTS category on the Billboards website in February. At the time, the BTS category was the only group name category between the Festival, Hot 100, Billboards200, Podcast, Pop, R&B/Hip - Hop, The Artist Corner, showing the idea of Billboards who see BTS as a genre. BTS has proved its global position in the BTS magazine, which was released by Billboards with seven group pictures and seven personal pictures.
Previously, BTS became a Million Seller with LOVE YOURSELF 'Her'. In particular, Million Seller based on a single album attracted attention because it was the record of 16 years since the regular 4th album of the group god in 2001. However, 'Her' did not just record Million Seller, but recorded the highest sales volume ever recorded in the cumulative sales volume of Gaon charts with cumulative sales of 1,613,924 as of February.
The music video views are the part that can look at the record of BTS along with the album sales volume. BTS has three music videos of '300 million views' for the first time in the Kpop group. "DNA," "FIRE," "Kaar," and three music videos in turn reached 300 million views, and in particular "DNA," it set a record of 300 million views in the shortest period of Kpop group history.
The first record of the Kpop group at BTS did not end here. Kpop Group won two awards at the Spanish awards ceremony 'The Hall of Stars Awards 2018' for the first time. It entered the Kpop group for the first time as a 'WINGS' album on the UK album chart, followed by 'Her'.
