★The stage was made more glamorous, with AR and other elements, befitting an awards ceremony. Among them, the dance break from "Dynamite" was particularly popular among Korean netizens. When the video was posted on online communities, it became a trend.
Within two hours of posting, the post had 900 comments.
At the Melon Music Awards 2020 (MMA 2020), BTS won the three major awards for Artist, Album, and Song. They also won the Top 10, Dance, and Netizen Popularity Awards.
This year, K-pop continued to be dominated by BTS.
BlackPink also further increased their popularity in the West, making them the first K-pop girl group to become world stars.
However, they were unable to match BTS, who was nominated for a Grammy for "Dynamite."
However, without this award, it would not have been surprising if BlackPink had not been in the spotlight.
This year, K-pop succeeded in launching BlackPink as a world star, following in the footsteps of BTS.
Since October, BTS and BlackPink have alternated between appearing on American TV (in Times Square, etc.), giving the impression that they are reaching out to Americans who normally don't listen to music.
As BTS's popularity and success has continued, BlackPink's success has also become more noticeable.
