Fans angered after BTS receive derogatory comments for their win at 'Billboard Music Awards'

BTS made history by becoming the first K-Pop group ever to attend and be awarded at 'Billboard Music Awards'. Many fans, as well as celebrities around the globe, congratulated the group for making history. Unfortunately, not everyone approved of their win.

International netizens, mostly non-Kpop fans, expressed frustration regarding BTS' victory and left some derogatory comments on Twitter.

Many asked, ''Who are these Asians?"

There were also some who left derogatory comments about Kpop in general.

But it doesn't matter what they think. It's a fact with no doubt that BTS proudly represented, not just K-Pop but Asian artists as a whole. They deserve all the applause and even Miley agrees.
