BP winning dance award is questionable to me. Objectively speaking Twice's MnM or esp Itzy's Wannabe should have won. We are talking about DANCE, you can't tell me the choreography of HYLT is better than MnM, ICSM and esp Wannabe thats just not true. I'm not hating we all have different tastes but just looking at the difficulty and level of choreography these 3 songs just harder than HYLT there is no debating it.
