BTS clearly marked its global dominance when the famed group was invited to the Grammy Awards in 2019. The K-pop boy group became the first Korean act to be presenters at the award ceremony and was nominated for Best Recording Packaging.
Despite not taking home a win in 2019, the group has seen soaring success and has been invited to several major music events and award ceremonies, including the 2022 Grammy Awards, but has yet to win a prestigious Grammy.
In a recent interview with Weverse, BTS' Jungkook revealed his true feelings of not having won a Grammy award and showed viewers his maturity with inspiring answers that many believe have made him the wise man that he is today. Speaking about his Grammy experience, Jungkook stated:
"I'm more interested in proving myself through my music. It was great seeing performances from people I've never seen live before."
BTS' Jungkook sits down with Weverse and talks about his musical experience
In a recent interview with Weverse, group maknae (K-pop word for the youngest member of the group) Jungkook sat down with the platform’s magazine section and spoke about his improved English speaking skills, the group members, future endeavors regarding his musical journey, and spoke honestly about the septet’s experience at the prestigious Grammy awards.
During the interactive interview, Jungkook impressively explained that his “proof” or motivation to create and produce music comes from his group mates:
"They are a really big influence. Just seeing the others put out their mixtapes makes me think, when should I make one? There must be something I have that I can prove."
Continuing his conversation with the magazine, Jungkook stated that his determination to give his best comes from the examples put forward by his hyungs (older brothers), and that the group’s popularity is significant enough whether they win a Grammy or not.
"I think our status is there whether we win a Grammy or not. That was just, I don’t know, a good experience?"
BTS' Jungkook carried on to showcase his true personality as he gave a mature response to not having won an award at the 2022 Grammy awards. Rather than being upset, Jungkook gave a calm and enlightening answer.
"It made me realize that, while I knew that winning the Grammy Award is a huge deal, I wasn’t really interested in actually winning one."
The Butter singer continued to share that there are different and more important ways to prove oneself as an acclaimed artist in the international arena. However, he did not mean to discredit the event and shared that it was a fun experience.
