BTS took home the Daesang (Grand Prize) at the 30th Seoul Music Awards!

The 30th Seoul Music Awards were held on January 31 at the KSPO Dome with MCs Shin Dong Yup, Girls’ Generation’s Sooyoung, and Super Junior’s Kim Heechul.

BTS won a total of six awards at the event, including the Daesang (Grand Prize). Their other five awards at the 30th Seoul Music Awards included the Best Album Award, Best Song Award, the K-Wave Award, the WhosFandom Award, and a Bonsang (Main Award).

In 2020, the 29th Seoul Music Awards divided the Daesang into two categories, but the 30th Seoul Music Awards reverted back to the show’s original format of awarding a single Daesang and separate Best Album and Best Song Awards. As BTS won the Album Daesang last year, this year marks the fourth year in a row that BTS has won a Daesang at the Seoul Music Awards.

BTS did not attend the event in person but sent in their speeches through video message.

In their speech for the Daesang, RM said, “It is an honor to have won the Daesang for the 30th Seoul Music Awards. We are very happy and grateful to have won this award.”

Jin said, “As we have received such a valuable award, it feels like we can start off this year with overflowing strength and energy. It is thanks to our ARMY that we were able to receive such a big award.”

Jungkook continued, “Thank you very much for always cheering us on and showing us love. If you weren’t here, then BTS would not be here either.”

J-Hope said, “Due to the unforeseen pandemic in 2020, we weren’t able meet in person, but we hope that the situation will improve and the day will soon come when we can be together again.”

Jimin also thanked the members, their families, and the Big Hit Entertainment staff, “who work hard so that we can shine on stage,” while V said, “I hope that 2021 will be another happy year with BTS. Everyone, please stay healthy.”

The group concluded their speech with a “Happy New Year” message.
