With the nomination, BTS has become the first Korean act to be nominated for all three of the most prestigious music awards in the US — the Grammys, the AMAs and the BBMAs. This year, BTS is making its third foray to the Grammys, having been invited as a presenter for an award for the 61st edition and to perform for the 62nd edition.
Lee agreed, adding, “Not only did ‘Dynamite’ score high on music charts, but they showed an almost symbolic synergy as a group.” Although more cautious on a BTS win, pop music critic Jung Min-jae explained a victory at the Grammys would hold significance beyond any other for the K-pop act.“The Western music critics have often found BTS’ success in their strong fandom and influence on social media. So if ‘Dynamite’ gets crowned at the Grammys, this would imply that the fellow musicians and experts have acknowledged the song’s value as a musical production,” Jung said.
“Dynamite” has been a chart-topper since its official release in August last year. Debuting at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart — as the first song from any Korean artist to debut atop the US music chart — the song has stayed at the apex of the singles chart for three weeks straight and is still among the top 50.
“A nomination itself has been enough to prove the group’s presence in the global music scene. I wouldn‘t say the value of BTS and their songs can be decided based on the result of the Grammys,” Park said.
