BTS, 그래미 '베스트 팝 그룹' 후보에 2년 연속 선정... 본상 후보는 못 뚫어
After winning big at the American Music Awards, BTS have been nominated for a Grammy, the top honor in popular music.
Despite expectations, though, they're not contending for any of the four main or 'general' fields, including 'Record of the Year.'
Han Seong-woo has the details.
For the second year in a row, the Recording Academy has officially named K-POP juggernaut BTS as a nominee for the Best Pop Duo or Group Performance at the Grammy Awards.
The boyband's hit single "Butter", which spent a total of ten weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 will be competing against the likes of Coldplay's "Higher Power" and Justin Bieber and Benny Blanco's "Lonely" for the honor... the winner to be announced at the awards ceremony in Los Angeles on January 31st.
If they win, the group will go down in history as the first Korean act in popular music to take home a golden Gramophone.
BTS' Grammy nomination this year comes just days after the boyband bagged three awards at the American Music Awards... including the top prize, Artist of the Year.... catapulting themselves to the top of the U.S. music industry.
So expectations were high, but the group was not nominated for the prestigious Record of the Year nor any other of the Grammys' four main, or general fields... proving once again the award ceremony's traditional focus on artistry rather than commercial performance.
Nominees are determined by eligible voting members of the Recording Academy, comprised of music industry experts and professionals, like artists, producers, sound engineers and critics.
Members finished their first round of votes early this month and await the final round... set to start December sixth and close a month later.
