BTS Is Also Absent.. ‘Grammy Awards’ Without K-pop Will Be Held Today (5th)

Neither boy group BTS nor any K-pop artists are nominated.

The 66th Grammy Awards, the most prestigious American pop music awards ceremony, will be held on the 4th (local time) at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, USA. However, no K-pop artists were nominated this year.

SZA is the most nominated artist at the Grammy Awards this year. She is nominated in a whopping 9 categories, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year. Other notable nominees include Victoria Monet, Jon Batiste, boygenius, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, and Taylor Swift. These artists are all highly anticipated by music fans around the world.

However, the disappointing thing is that K-pop artists, including BTS, were not nominated for the 2024 ‘Grammy Awards’. Previously, BTS was nominated for the ‘Grammy Awards’ for three consecutive years, starting with the ‘Best Pop Duo Group Performance’ category three years ago. Although they have not yet enjoyed the joy of winning the award, global listeners are raising their voices of regret as they were not even nominated for the award this year.

In particular, BTS won trophies at the ‘Billboard Music Awards’ and ‘American Music Awards’, which are known as the three major pop music awards ceremonies in the United States, so it is even more disappointing that they failed to win the ‘Grammy Awards’.

The ’66th Grammy Awards’ will be broadcast live on Mnet from 10 am on the 5th.
