K-Pop fans rejoice! BTS is set to make their first award show appearance in four years at the American Music Awards. The Korean band will make a special appearance on the show.
They made their debut on the AMAs in 2017 as the first K-Pop group to perform on the show. A May 20 press release teases a “special appearance,” but it does not specify if they are performing, presenting, or doing something else.
