The news comes just over a month after the introduction of the best Asian pop music performance category.
The massively popular K-pop boyband announced they would not submit for consideration for the Recording Academy’s awards this year, in apparent protest of a new Asian Pop Music category.
Grammy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. has responded to K-pop supergroup BTS' decision to boycott the 2027 Grammy Awards over its new Asian Pop category.
"I am saddened to hear that BTS has chosen not to participate in the Grammy Awards process this year," said Grammy CEO Harvey Mason jr.
BTS returns the track "Normal," now a single from the band's album Arirang, to multiple charts in the U.K. The cut reappears at No. 1 on several sales rankings.
All of Billboard's charts update each Tuesday.
Six members of the K-pop group sat down with 'Capital Breakfast' at Kensington Palace for their first UK visit in seven years.
"Swim" nearly falls off the Billboard Hot 100, but as the Arirang single keeps on the chart, it ties "My Universe" with Coldplay as one of the band's sturdiest smashes.
