It is the Bangtan Boys’ world, and we are just living in it.
Global superstars BTS delivered their first ever live performance of “Dynamite” at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, debuting the full choreography of their brand new English track. Rocking ‘70s retro-styled suits and a bright, disco vibe, RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook’s first ever VMAs performance was a burst of bubbly, goofy brightness.
BTS picked up the VMA award for Best Group earlier in the night, as well as the award for Best K-Pop Video for “On” — a category which was only established last year, and which they also won with “Boy with Luv.” The group also nabbed Best Pop Video after their performance and are nominated for Best Choreography, which hasn’t yet been announced.
Last week “Dynamite” broke YouTube’s record for the video with the most views within its first 24 hours, smashing the previous record set by BLACKPINK’s “How You Like That” in June.
