BTS is set to take over the world.
Billboard Music Awards (BBMA) has just confirmed that the boy group will be performing at this year’s show. This is a huge deal, as it marks the first time any K-pop group has performed at the American award show.
Billboard announced this via a surprise tweet just today (Tuesday, 25th April). They also revealed that the boys will be premiering their new single on the show, which will be held on 20th May.
The K-pop group will be attending the BBMAs for the 2nd year in a row. They not only showed up at last year’s show, but also won the Top Social Artiste award – a category that has been dominated by Justin Bieber for the past 6 years.
BTS is also nominated for the same category this year. Other nominees include the Biebs, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovata, and Shawn Mendes.

BTS will be dropping their album “Love Yourself 轉 ‘Tear'” on 18th May.
