Notable Losses
Despite his outstanding achievements, Jungkook did not win the award for “Top Global K-Pop Artist,”which went to fellow K-pop sensation Stray Kids. Additionally, he fell short in the “Top Selling Song”and “Top Song Sales Artist”categories, where country artist Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)”prevailed.
Impact of His Achievements
These accomplishments are particularly significant for BTS’s devoted fan base, known as ARMY, as Jungkook managed to achieve this remarkable recognition while serving in the military. His wins not only underscore BTS’s enduring popularity and influence within the U.S. music scene but also establish Jungkook’s reputation as a formidable solo artist.
Meanwhile, SEVENTEEN, along with BTS and Stray Kids, also enjoyed success at the BBMAs, winning the “Top K-Pop Touring Artist”award, further highlighting the global presence of K-pop artists.
