Boy group Bantan Boys, once again, received a nomination for the ‘Top Social Awards’ at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards.
On April 17, Billboard released a list of nominees for 2018 Billboards Music Awards. For the ‘Top Social Awards,’ BTS managed to put their name on the nominee’s list after their win last year. This year, they will be competing against Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, and Shawn Mendes.
In fact, BTS has won ‘Top Social Awards’ at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards. They were the first ones to break Justin Bieber’s record of winning 6 awards in a row.
They have a high chance of winning this award again. Last year, BTS appeared on America’s Top 3 talk shows and promoted themselves as the representative of K-pop. In addition, their influence on SNS is powerful. The awards are given based many things, one of them being the voting process that holds place on various SNS platforms. As BTS has a great influence on SNS, it gives them the advantage.
The fans are hoping that this will give BTS a chance to perform at the awards. Last year, they only received the award without a performance. However, the fans are hoping that BTS will be able to perform ‘DNA’ or ‘Mic Drop’ and swept away America once again.
Meanwhile, 2018 Billboard Music Awards will take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on April 20.
