K-pop supergroup BTS is seeking to clinch its second Artist of the Year award, considered the top honor, at the American Music Awards (AMAs) as the ceremony takes place in Las Vegas on Monday (U.S. time).
The septet is nominated in three categories this year, including the flagship Artist of the Year award, where it will compete against global stars, such as Bad Bunny, Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift.
BTS will attend the ceremony at the MGM Grand Garden Arena for the first time in five years, having last appeared in 2021.
The band is also nominated for Best Male K-pop Artist and Song of the Summer for "Swim," the lead track from its fifth studio album, "ARIRANG."
