BTS’ popularity has spread far beyond their home country. They just won the Favourite Social Artist award at the American Music Awards on Wednesday, beating out Cardi B, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato and Shawn Mendes.
The band also gave a speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York last month to launch the youth initiative Generation Unlimited, a scheme aiming to offer education, training and employment to young people around the world by 2030.
BTS performed in Singapore last year at the Music Bank World Tour, which included other K-pop acts such as CN Blue and Red Velvet.
