After being nominated for the 2021 Grammy Awards, BTS has shared a sweet message of gratitude for their fans—along with a fun behind-the-scenes glimpse of how they reacted to the news!

On November 24 local time, the Recording Academy announced the nominees for the 2021 Grammy Awards in a live broadcast, and it turns out that at least four BTS members were watching the announcements with bated breath.

Shortly after BTS received their first Grammy Awards nomination for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance (for their hit single “Dynamite“), the idols took to Twitter to share a brief video clip of their realtime reactions to the happy news.

The video shows V, Jungkook, RM, and Jimin nervously watching at home before seeing their group name on screen—and immediately bursting out into excited shouts of celebration. Amusingly, the BTS members posted the video with a hilariously relatable keyboard smash in the caption.

A few minutes later, after they had fully processed the news, they shared a thoughtful message of gratitude in response to their nomination. The BTS members wrote in Korean, “Thank you to everyone who listened and related to our music during this difficult time. Above all else, it’s ARMY who has created this miracle of our becoming Grammy-nominated artists. We are always grateful, and we love you.”

They added in English, “Thank you Recording Academy for this great honor!”
