As first-time nominees at the GRAMMYs for their chart-topping single “Dynamite,” BTS did previously say in an interview with USA TODAY‘s Social Media Editor Fatima-Tul Farha that the nomination felt surreal and that “[they]’re trying [their] best to deliver a great performance to return all the support [they] received from [their] fans.”
