BTS have taken themselves out of the running for the 2027 Grammy Awards.
All seven members - RM, Jimin, V, Suga, Jungkook, Jin and J‑Hope - posted an identical message explaining that none of the tracks from ARIRANG will be put forward for next year’s Grammys. Their joint statement makes clear the move is a direct response to the Recording Academy’s new Asian‑specific category, which they say reduces artists to “region or language” rather than judging the music itself.
