This global superstar’s hit song “Blood Sweat & Tears” became the foothold for them to break into the mainstream in the US market. Recalling the moment when they first partici[ated in the Billboard Music Awards, Jimin said, “I remember every scene. I couldn’t believe it even when I was there.”
Jungkook added, “It didn’t feel real since we didn’t even know that we were going to be like that (that popular).” RM said, “That was when we first started to gain global attention, so we thought something was happening. You know, something big is going on right now.”

Talking about the song, Suga said, “This is one of the hardest songs, especially for vocals.” Jin added, “I couldn’t get that vibe, so I didn’t do it.” Jimin then said, “This is hard, but the fact that we had to do this while dancing was just…”
