Best And Worst Moments At The 2020 VMAs

When MTV decided to introduce a Best K-Pop category at the Video Music Awards in 2019, fans of one particular group reacted angrily. BTS won the award hands down, of course, but ARMY (their super dedicated fan group) looked at it like a massive cop out. The new category was seen as "suspicious at best and borderline racist," according to Variety, which pointed out that the uber popular Korean boy band wasn't being considered for any of the big awards, despite their levels of popularity around the world.

Not only did BTS stop the show with its performance of "Dynamite," the crew also picked up the Best K-Pop Moon Person once more in 2020. Oh, and they also walked away with one of the night's biggest accolades, too, snagging the Best Pop award for the song "On." This made BTS "the first-ever Asian act to win" the category, according to The New Indian Express' Indulge. The Bangtan Boys beat out competition from Halsey ("You Should Be Sad"), the Jonas Brothers ("What a Man Gotta Do"), Justin Bieber and Quavo ("Intentions"), Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande ("Rain On Me") and Taylor Swift ("Lover").
