BTS made history in 2021 by becoming the first K-pop group to receive a Grammy nomination. Their hit English-language single "Dynamite" was nominated for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the 63rd Grammy Awards.

After Dynamite, BTS continued to earn nominations in the Best Pop Duo/Group Performance category with "Butter" (2022) and their collaboration with Coldplay, "My Universe" (2023). These nominations cemented their presence at the Grammys.

BTS delivered several memorable Grammy performances, including Dynamite, Butter, and a spy-themed performance of Butter in 2022. Their stages were praised for choreography, live vocals, and production value, helping introduce K-pop to a broader global audience.

Despite multiple nominations and critically acclaimed performances, BTS have not yet won a Grammy. The outcome has sparked widespread debate among fans and music critics, many of whom argue the group has been overlooked despite its global success.

Even without a win, BTS have become regular attendees and performers at the Recording Academy's biggest event. Their presence has played a major role in increasing Asian representation and global diversity at the Grammys.

During the group's temporary hiatus for military service, members released successful solo projects. Albums and collaborations by RM, Jimin, Jung Kook, V, SUGA, J-Hope, and Jin have fueled discussions about future solo Grammy nominations, although group achievements remain their defining Grammy legacy.

Songs like Dynamite and Butter topped the Billboard Hot 100, broke streaming records, and won major international awards. Their commercial dominance strengthened expectations that Grammy recognition would eventually translate into a win.

BTS' fandom, ARMY, has consistently campaigned during Grammy nomination and voting seasons through streaming, promotions, and social media. Every Grammy announcement involving BTS has generated massive global engagement.

With the upcoming Grammys, BTS decided to not submit their album ARIRANG. They stated they want music to be appreciated for what it is rather than being divided by region or language.The decision follows the Grammys creating a separate "Best Asian Pop Music Performance" field, which many view as a form of segregation that keeps international or non-English acts out of the primary general categories
