1. [+803, -66] It's okay that they didn't win but it does feel like the Grammys used BTS. BTS, you guys are already the best!
2. [+379, -13] I agree that their song isn't high on the musicality rating but for a ceremony that acts like they're above anything commercial, they really used BTS for commercial promotion.
3. [+237, -28] They're really pissing me off at this point... I'm mad that they still performed on stage despite an injury. We don't need a Grammy anymore so please stop performing for them. They're playing dirty.
4. [+81, -14] The Grammys basically used BTS. Stop attending and boycott it.
5. [+63, -2] I don't know how much of it wasn't racist. What about how they pushed the award till the end and got viewer ratings out of that?? The Grammys claim to hate commercial songs but they're acting very commercially.
6. [+53, -1] They basically don't want to give BTS any trophies but want to use them for hype and viewer ratings...
7. [+38, -2] The way the Grammys is acting is pissing me off. They made BTS perform in the beginning but made them wait until the end of the awards to milk out the viewer ratings. We don't need their trophy anymore, just boycott the whole thing.
8. [+32, -2] I think the bigger point is that they were up for best performance, not song of the year, and they didn't win it??????
9. [+30, -1] The Grammys has always been negatively biased towards idol/performance type groups even if they're white because they don't believe there's enough musicality in their songs. It's kind of similar to how the Academy refuses to award Marvel hero movies. It makes you realize why Michael Jackson is so legendary, since he was able to perfectly satisfy all three categories of musicality, commercial, and performance.

1. [+776, -21] They're always fishing for viewer ratings with BTS by having them perform first and wait for awards later
2. [+327, -6] I don't care if they don't win it but it pisses me off that they're getting used
3. [+279, -7] Doja Cat winning it? I 100% agree with it. But to purposely squeeze an award that's not even a bonsang in all the way at the end like that? It's totally obvious what they were doing...
4. [+58, -6] I see people taking this as an opportunity to downplay BTS' achievements ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ but let's please recognize the fact that being nominated at the Grammys for two years in a row is an achievement in itself. They were up against some amazing competition, and I'm fine with them not winning it. However, we're angry because the Grammys always uses BTS for viewer ratings like this. You can't possibly take them not winning as evidence of them not being popular or talented when they were #1 for 10 weeks on the Billboard already ㅋ
5. [+47, -6] It's a festival of their own
6. [+35, -0] Even Katy Perry has been nominated over 13 times in the past 10 years and never won one award. Same with Queen, Snoop Dogg. And by the way, no Armies are putting down Doja Cat for winning it.
7. [+35, -4] We've done enough. They refuse to award Asians no matter what so let's please stop begging them for this. I'm fine with how much BTS has achieved, they've done enough.
8. [+24, -0] Grammys can screw right off with using BTS for commercial purposes but refusing to award them~
9. [+23, -1] Not like the Grammys is some global music award show. It's just a local American ceremony. I am, however, really pissed off that they keep using the kids for promotional purposes.
10. [+21, -0] They may not have won but it's amazing already that they were nominated again. I'm proud of our Korean singers for reaching out into the world.
11. [+13, -1] It's not like we'd give Ariana Grande a daesang just for attending our Gayo Daejun? The Grammys is American, and I think they're being very open minded already with BTS ranking on the Billboard and all! Let's focus our energy instead on investing more into developing our own culture and artists.
