BTS is nominated by Halsey who has collaborated with BTS in ‘Boy With Luv’. Halsey praisedBTS saying ‘the K-pop group has taken the music industry by storm—shattering sales records, gathering accolades and performing across the globe for head-spinning audiences—all the while remaining exemplary ambassadors for their Korean culture. But behind those three letters are seven astounding young men who believe that music is stronger than the barriers of language. It’s a universal dialect.’
