  By receiving the first Grammy nomination in their career, BTS is not only the first Kpop idol group to get this achievement but also the first Kpop artist to bring national pride. It is also for this reason that since the Grammy announced the nomination until now, Korean netizens are still excited and have been praising the golden group of Big Hit Entertainment nonstop.

  Among the topics related to BTS and Grammy that were trending on Theqoo, there was a post that attracted more than 1,200 comments.  This post is about Jungkook, calling him ‘the most successful young idol in Kpop history’.

 Until now, Jungkook’s famous nickname is ‘Golden Maknae’ because the male idol is young but extremely talented, from singing, dancing, composing to painting, playing sports,… In any field, Jungkook can do it and do it well.  However, this title ‘golden maknae’ may not only be used internally within BTS fandom, or among idol groups in general, but from now on it will become a special title in Kpop history.
