BTS recently cemented their status as true K-Pop legends after their appearance at the American Music Awards (AMA), where they made history.

After picking up the win for Artist of the Year, the members all made it on stage to accept the award, and as expected, they gave a speech after receiving the trophy.
Leader RM spoke fluently in English, thanking the fans and HYBE for all the support. Jungkook even caught the attention of fans for cutting his speech short because of time constraints and lovingly being pushed aside by Jin.

However, one person who gained a lot of love from netizens for his speech was Suga! After RM handed Suga the microphone, the BTS rapper then started doing his speech in Korean, unlike the other members who had chosen to speak in English.
