According to the scheduler, BTS’ Jungkook was scheduled to appear and perform on 2023 MTV EMAs (European Music Awards) on November 5 (November 6 at 4 am KST).
Notably, he is nominated in three categories - Best K-pop, Biggest Fans for the group's beloved fanbase ARMYs, and Best Song for his Billboard-topping hit single Seven. The singer features American rapper Latto and Korean actress Han So-hee.
BTS' Jungkook's anticipated appearance at the 2023 MTV EMAs stands canceled
In a new statement released by @mtvema, the 2023 MTV EMAs stand canceled. This cancellation is due to ongoing tensions between Middle Eastern nations, Israel and Palestine, and the protests that have erupted worldwide as a result of the ongoing war.
The organizers do not want to risk the lives of the nominated artists, performers, thousands of employees, crew members, and fans. Hence, BTS’ Jungkook's much-awaited debut solo performance at the 2023 MTV EMAs also stands canceled.
The Left and Right singer has planned twin surprises for ARMYs on November 8 and November 16, with only a "Coming Soon" released on the scheduler.
Finally, on November 20 at 8 pm KST, Bangtan's maknae will host his debut solo concert, "GOLDEN Live On Stage," at Jangchung Gymnasium, Jung-gu, Seoul. The concert will be streamed live on Weverse for fans worldwide.
