<p>South Korean boy group BTS has just made history at the American Music Awards (AMAs) 2021. </p><p>Having been named as the Artist of the Year, K-Pop group BTS is the first-ever Asian group to win the award — the biggest for the night. </p><p>“Four years ago, we gave this first-time-ever TV live performance at this stage, AMAs, it was ‘DNA,’ and we were too excited and nervous at the time. And it’s been a long and amazing ride since then, but nobody could have ever bet on the odds of us standing here receiving this award. Except you all, ARMY. Except you all,” member RM said. </p><p>“Seven boys from Korea, united by a love for music. We met the love and support from all the ARMYs all over the world. This whole thing is a miracle. Seriously, we’ll never take this for granted. Thank you so much. We love you all, we want to give this honor to you guys. Thank you HYBE, thank you staff, all the people,” he added. </p><p>Jungkook, on the other hand, said: “We just wanted to make people happy with our music. We believe that this award opens the beginning of our new chapter. In the past few years, we learned that each and every moment is precious. So in 2022, we want to focus on…” and stopped. V took the microphone and said, “I’m deeply touched by this award. I appreciate your love. Thank you ARMY, thank you AMAs. Thank you, we purple you!”</p><p>BTS also won Favorite Pop Duo or Group and Favorite Pop Song for “Butter.” </p><p>“It took four years to be on this stage to get this trophy. Thank you so much. Actually it means to us even more because we’re actually a small boy band from Korea,” RM said as he accepted the Favirute Pop Duo or Group award. </p><p>“We just got united by the love for our music, and all we want to do is just spread love, the good vibes and energy through music and performance. But without you guys, ARMY, we couldn’t have done anything. Thank you so much,” he added. </p><div> </div><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned=""
