Watch BTS's AMAs 2021 acceptance speech for Artist of the Year. Watch more highlights from 'The 2021 American Music Awards' and Stream Next Day on Hulu.
@Aissa Agregado He wasn't going to spoil, the given time was already running out and V wanted to speak as well but since RM took most of the time it made them in rush
I so love how Suga took over the mic from RM... he was like give us a chance to talk. I wonder what Jungkook wanted to say... In 2022 we wanted to focus on... we wanted to focus on... then he was cut off by V. Was he going to spoil something???
He do speaks English at concerts but speaking in award show is something else. I appreciate him so much like I never thought someone from them without Namjoon would give acceptance speech. He can speak whatever language either English or Korean. He's so cute and ARMY r always rooting for him.
Jungkook speaking English is so cool! At least some of the boys apart from RM are doing their best to learn and improve their English skills. Suga also who they say is secretly fluent in English, but just prefers to speak in Korean.
I love how they never stop being themselves. Yoongi talking in Korean and not changing for others in the crowd. Jin manhandling Jungkook on a prestigious awards stage 😂 Tae hitting JK. JK clinging to Namjoon as they exited. Jimin and Hobi CRACKING UP! Never change guys!!
there's a compilation of Jungkook out there of him avoiding Namjoon at Korean award shows so he wouldn't speak in the mic but here he was RACING for his turn to talk, in a foreign country and giving the speech in English at that. THAT is character development 😭💜
There was a vid where JHope and Tae were talking about how JK was going to start working out and given his "ambition," they were afraid he was going to "eat" them. The laughs and love between them are so genuine and adorable, it's unreal.
I’m a new fan here. Been hearing bout them since then and wondering why they have a huge fan base, im too lazy to check bout them until “V” caught my attention ‘cause of his video that kept appearing on my fyp on tiktok, the one where his face was closed up wearing a squid game costume. Now im literally obsess about them. I love Jimin or should i say he is my bias haha! I love BTS! They are all very talented, and very humble despite their popularity and achievements ❤️
BTS who are pushing each other not to give speeches in Korea now pushing each other to give speech in English 🤣 YEAH BABY FLEX! WE WILL GIVE YOU MORE AWARDS TO ACCEPT SO YOU ALL CAN TALK Edit: I didn't have an idea this got so many comments and likes. I want to clarify that I love that attitude of them loved that they are more comfortable and of course it was only 3 awards so lets make those American shows like MAMA or MMA where we have one award for each so they can talk as much as they want 💜 And I could give the universe to them if I could. I believe in them and thanks to them I believe in myself too. CONGRATS TO MY 7 KING 💜
The way RM hug them all, specially V and Jimin waiting to get their hug from him. They are so happy. They were just themselves when accepting their awards ,still funny and goofy.🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
@Shyamali Das No one cares about which current singer can sing, talent transcends time. This shit wont hold up in the next 50 years, Stairway to Heaven just did, along with others.
I love how Jungkook broke from We wanna focus on then Jin took him and everybody just laughed about it, it just shows that they really made a history for breaking the barrier between western and asian music, music awards just did it purpose for music to be appreciated the way how we feel when we listen to it no matter what language or style
@Procrastinator yeah I was just telling that to my friend As much as I'm proud of BTS and I love them Every kpop group deserves this level of recognition and success,they ALL work very hard!
I am a senior and grew up with the English invasion in the 60s. I really like these young fellows. I like their music, their dancing and their attitude. I especially like the respect that they show their fans and others that they meet.
It doesn't matter if they forgot some of their speech..people will still fall in love with them just by seeing how cute and humble and their down to earth reactions.
jungkook’s speech was absolutely sweet and perfect! 🥰 i’m so proud of how far our boys have come together and i can’t wait to see what else this year holds for them!
I like how RM always remembers to thank Army. They are loyal to their fan base and visa versa. So glad to see their continued success. BTS plus Army forever and always.
the way they went chaoticly to receive the other awards but for this one they respectfully waited for RM to congratulate them individually, just melted my heart... the amount of respect, love and care they have for him is just overwhelming. I hope we will get to see them like this next month, even though for us ARMY, Grammy means nothing, but to them is a milestone they want to achieve and we must support them. Borahae 💜
I came back to re-watch the beautiful way Jin looked at JK, and kept his hands on him the whole time to encourage and comfort him (before the chaos 🤣) Their relationships are so special 💜 They deserve nothing but the best!
I can’t stop watching this. I love you BTS !!! The naturalness and humbleness of you guys made you so loved by us all over the world. I’m proud to be an army 💜💜💜
As a South Korean, BTS became the reason that I am so proud of the country that I am living in now, and the reason that I can be proud of where I come from no matter where I go. Cheers to them and this award!!
im at the verge of crying im so proud of my boys when rm said 7 normal boys from korea united by love for music i literally got goosebumps, thiss guys achieved so much which is not possible without their hardwork struggle passion for music , i respect themm so much , i just have no words to explain how much they went through .. purple u bts stay strong and always keep smiling
I’m swiftie and I wanted to Taylor won, but when I saw them expressing their emotions I just wanted to cry ‘cause it’s so incredible to see them so graceful to their fans ! And of course I know them and I know of all their efforts, it’s just amazing ! they’re amazing!!! Congratulations BTS and ARMYs 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 PD: Omg there're many comments and I can't answer all of them, but Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰💜💜♥️♥️
Thank you!! Taylor was and is so sweet to the guys, and just seems like such a kind person 💜💜 i wouldn't have been mad if any of the other nominated artists had won, but i won't lie, I'm so glad bts did
Suga's nationalism is so clear and respectable. He stated once before that as foreigners it shouldn't matter if the rest of the world learns Korean or not and that they will accept us that way, just as the English speakers should understand that they are foreigners and don't speak English and don't have to, and this is extremely commendable. I'm not a native English speaker too and I love how he stands by his beliefs even on stage by choosing to speak in Korean because that's what their heart and soul holds and it's fascinating and amazing because nobody should expect them to change! More power to him 🔥❤️
@U Fool fluent isn't just being good at a language, as someone who speaks 4 languages (fluent in 3, good at 1), there's a difference. if you're fluent you're able to talk without thinking about it and it feels natural to you, your brain can function in that language. Jungkook did amazing but he's not fluent, and I think that's important to recognize because it means he puts that much more effort into speaking it for us
Wooow..Historic moment..Even I got goosebumps when she shouted their name and Butter started playing in the background..Just focus on V's expression while JK was giving speech..He just couldn't wait for JK to finish and grab the mic..They all were so excited and thrilled..We could see that on their face..And see the whole audience also went mad at excitement..Purple you BTS💜💜..
I wait and watched this live on our TV, I must filmed my reaction cause it was so wholesomeee. It was a history winning against those big artist specially in america. BTS themselves didn't take that award for granted, as an ARMY luckily I've become part of the results!!! Its just that I will cherished this moment in my life. 💜😊
i can clearly see that how our boys are happy they deserve even more and happiness of the whole world ......btw when RM was speaking maknae line was blushing so hard
this video came up right after I watched their AOTY mama 2018 speech and just looking at the difference between the two. They've grown so much and they're so much more confident now. I feel like they've found their balance and peace. It makes me so proud of them 💓
@NicoleRH🐾 without fear of stupid racist people, like the are so proud of being Korean, I love them so much 💜 They make so many people wants to know their culture and language 💜💜💜
@Myntimenday Hey! Hello! I was wondering if I could take part of your translation and add it (with the due credit included, of course) in a video that I'll probably upload on Twitter? Thanks [for your attention. Because I will not upload it without your permission, haha]!
The third guy on the mic struggling to remember his english speech is so fricking adorable 👀 They are all Korean, they don't even have to speak English (as they are not fluent apparently) but they made an effort to communicate better with fans. Third guy tried so hard and he did great!! What is his name?? So wholesome, this put a big smile on my face tbh
@Briana Vieira FYI, we love all 7 of them and they are closer than a family can be. They are all talented individually, that's what make this group so great and loved.
I am so proud of them. I love coming back to this from time to time. Lol love how Jungkook just took the acceptance speech to a whole another level. Bravo Kookie! 💜
Yoongi's speech translation - " ah, yes yes, ah.. we made our american debut 4 years ago at amas, and we didnt know we would come to receive artist of the year, we think this is all because of army. thank you!" 💗💜💜💜We r so proud of you Yoongi 💗💜💜💜
BTS went from "Please come to our concert it is free" to receiving Artist of the year award, if this doesn't tell you that they built their career from ground up then nothing will.
RM beautiful words, Yoongi’s Korean speech, JK endearing and cute speech, Jin’s playfulness with JK and their laughter, V’s cute eagerness to speak, Jimin’s smiling face, his entire being is a beautiful speech, Jhope beauty and him trying not to tear up when I couldn’t stop says a lot … those 7 mean the world to us. The world will never really know how strong this bond is… everything was perfect for us because they were perfect.. finally hearing ARMYs loud cheers live after so long … millions of us weren’t there physically, but we cheered from every corner of this world for them
I'm not an army but it's time to understand that BTS are the most powerful artist right now and totally dominate the music industry. I saw them sing and perform. They know how to put a show and have a tremendous fanbase. Apparently they started from nothing to get there. They are genuinely talented. I'll admit that
This will always be one of my favorite always come back here to see their reactions , they came so far and prove all those who's doubts them all these years..
Rascal Bunny never fails to deliver laughs and cuteness. Watching Jimin and JHope, seeing their faces and all the members, can't help but wish them life's best blessings. How hard they've worked and helped each other.
@DARKSEID yep exactly it's not the artist fault in fact they can't do anything about it but it's very annoying to be very honest, it's just ruins the image of the whole fandom when there is some nice fans too people tends to generalize it.
Jungkook's english really has improved a lot! I love how confident he seems while delivering his speech despite being too nervous. You may have not finished your speech, but we understand what you mean, our Kookie. We will always be with you as you and the other members go through another chapter of your career/s. We love you!
@None of your business IKR! He was so adorable while speaking. The way he delivered it seriously at first but acted cutely when he felt the nervousness and pressure. I really love him! ❤️💜
Yes the confidence of our king is showing.. He wanted to go on even though he couldn't remember his next words but then tae was getting impatient n jin pulled him to the side it was so funny.. they all are so cute together and especially our kookoo 🐰💜
Невероятно прекрасные ребята, талантливые,естественные, обожаю Чонгука, как он не постеснялся сказать речь на английском, Чимина и всех BTS, любовь на всю жизнь ❤
Yoongi's speech: 4 years ago we made our american tv debut with DNA at the AMAs, never knowing we'd get to receive the Artist of The Year Award. It's all because of Army, THANK YOUUUUUUU
