They created this category to box BTS, it is extremely xenophobic. The boys are doing Ariana level numbers and higher and still wont be nominated for the main awards. Last year they did AMAZINGLY and didnt even get one nom. Ridiculous

BTS is the top group in the US and the world, not the top kpop group or the top boy band, THE top group. They do not deserve to be put on the sidelines. They have more sales, views and engagements than most of the other nominees, and they are still not getting the recognition/credit they deserve.
