BTS's Jungkook has won two awards at the '2023 MTV Europe Music Awards' (MTV EMA), Europe's largest music awards show, solidifying his position as a global pop star.
According to the list of this year's winners announced on November 6th (Korean time) on the official website of the '2023 MTV Europe Music Awards' (MTV EMA), BTS's Jungkook won trophies in the 'Best Song' and 'Best K-Pop' categories. Jungkook, who set a new record as the Korean solo artist with the most nominations at the '2023 MTV EMA,' demonstrated his global popularity by winning in two categories. This marks the first time a Korean solo artist has won two awards at this event.
Jungkook's solo single 'Seven (feat. Latto)' won him the 'Best Song' trophy, defeating strong contenders like Doja Cat, Miley Cyrus, Olivia Rodrigo, and Taylor Swift. Jungkook is the first K-Pop solo artist to win this category, while BTS won it as a group in 2020 with 'Dynamite.'
Additionally, Jungkook added the 'Best K-Pop' trophy to his collection, an award given to the best K-Pop artist of the year. The 'Best K-Pop' category, established in 2019, has been dominated by BTS until 2021, with three wins, making them the artist with the most wins in this category.
Jungkook's song 'Seven,' released in July and making waves worldwide, reached the top of the Billboard 'Hot 100' chart, achieved 1 billion streams on Spotify in the shortest time, and maintained the top position on the 'Global Top Song' chart for 70 days.
In addition, on November 3rd, Jungkook released his solo album 'GOLDEN,' signaling active upcoming activities. He is set to appear on popular talk shows like 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon' on November 7th and the 'City Concert Series' on 'TODAY' on November 8th, both on NBC, which represent morning and evening programming in the United States.
