Earlier this month, BTS also annocuned that they would be perofmring their ‘Butter’ remix with Megan Thee Stallion during the awards ceremony. The Houston rapper added a brand-new verse to the Hot 100 chart-topping hit this summer, following a high-profile battle with her label for the remix’s release.
More artists have also been confirmed to perform at the awards show including Olivia Rodrigo, who leads the nominations with seven nods across all categories. Bad Bunny, who is up for five awards, will also give the first live performance of his collaboration with Tainy and Julieta Venegas, ‘Lo Siento BB:/’.”
Last week, Spotify Korea and World Music Awards announced that BTS’ ‘Yours’, his contribution to the soundtrack of the K-drama series Jirisan, has become the first song from a Korean OST to enter Spotify’s Top 50 Global Chart.
‘Yours’ marks the BTS member’s second appearance on the soundtrack of a K-drama, and his first-ever solo contribution. Jin had previously released a duet with bandmate V titled ‘It’s Definitely You’ for the 2016 period drama Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth.
