The disco-inspired Dynamite, which the South Korean group sing in English, topped the Billboard 100 chart when it was released last year.

It also earned them their first ever Grammy nomination for best pop/duo group performance.

BTS had a successful awards season in the K-pop industry this year, taking home the big Daesang prize at the Golden Disc Awards for Map Of The Soul: 7.
