The South Korean supergroup, BTS, has won three awards, including the night’s top award, Favorite Artist of the Year. They also left with the Favorite Pop Duet or Group and Favorite Pop Song awards for their hit single “Butter”.

Receiving the Favorite Artist of the Year award, the head of BTS, RM stressed visibly excited: This is all a miracle. “Seriously, we will never take it for granted.”

Four years ago, we made our first live TV appearance on this AMA scene with “DNA”. “We were so excited and nervous then,” RM said. “It has been a long and amazing journey since then, but no one could ever bet we would be here to receive this award. Except for ARMY. “Seven boys from Korea, united by their love for music, have experienced the love and support of ARMY around the world,” RM said, referring to the K-pop band’s fans.
