BTS on Gaining Respect in the U.S.: 'We Definitely Feel That'

"Dynamite," the group’s first all-English song, debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. music charts this week, making BTS the first Korean pop act to top the chart.

“Dynamite,” the group’s first all-English song, debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. music charts this week, making BTS the first Korean pop act to top the chart. The upbeat song even supplanted “WAP,” the raunchy smash hit by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, to claim the No. 1 position. And even at U.S. awards shows, they’ve gone from winning honors like “top social artist” to being named best group and best pop act, beating out Maroon 5, Imagine Dragons, twenty one pilots, Jonas Brothers and others. At Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards, they won all four prizes they were nominated for.

“Like Travis Scott,” he continued. “The nomination is meaningful to even people like that and to imagine that we could be nominated for Grammy, again, it would be such an honor and a great feeling.” Though “Dynamite” has charted new territory for BTS, the song wasn’t even supposed to be released, RM explained. BTS had plans to tour but that changed due to the coronavirus: “The pandemic blew everything away.”

And they definitely deserve it 💜

DdaengLife are yall saying you didnt respect them before this? ew.

Don't know their music.. are they all brothers?

Bangtan has had the respect of Ami in the US since they debuted. It's unfortunate that in order to garner 'respect in the U.S.' the song had to be in English for the rest to find out what we've known for years. It shouldn't have had to be that way. 💜 BTS_twt BTS BTSARMY BTS
