BTS '한국대중음악상' 수상
BTS, the first feat in idol history!
★「Korean Popular Music Award」→→→ A music award in South Korea hosted by the Korean Popular Music Award Selection Committee. It was established to develop a good balance in Korean popular music awards without boundaries between mainstream and non-mainstream, with the artistic value of music as the selection criterion, not sales.
I don't know how BTS is positioned in Korea.
However, it is certain that BTS, which is targeting the world including the West, is showing activities worthy of receiving the 'Popular Music Award'.
In advanced countries in the West, especially in the United States, idol fever is blowing, intensively attracting teenagers.
In addition to their contribution to the market, they also have a great influence on young people as a culture.
More importantly, what I want to note is that most people in emerging countries and low-income countries are exposed to BTS' music and finding enjoyment in it.
I felt it strongly through YouTube videos, etc.
The market may not be fully reflected yet.
However, music will be entertainment that does not require gold.
For example, on the 'AMAs' stage, dozens of fans gather in front of a TV under one roof and desperately cheer for BTS's stage with their voices withered.
You can also see scenes of them shedding tears emotionally.
There are several such videos uploaded here and there in various countries and regions.
Many fans are familiar with BTS' music in that way.
Perhaps BTS' music is flowing through radio and TV to many people around the world...even in the Middle East and Africa, and they seem to be loved as a family, singing and dancing together.
I think it would be good to call them the 'Korean Popular Music Awards', but I also think it would be good to call them the 'World Music Popular Awards'.
