MTV European Music Awards 2023: what K-Pop acts have been nominated at this year’s event and how to vote?

BTS’ Jungkook is among the names nominated for ‘Best Song’ at the MTV European Music Awards, taking place in Paris next month, but faces some very stiff competition in the category, in the form of Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Olivia Rodrigo.

Junkook’s first single, “Seven,” is the single up for the award, but has to contend with the MTV award juggernaut that is Taylor Swift, with her song “Anti-Hero” already a hot favourite to pick up the gong. Jungkook is also nominated inthe “Biggest Fans” category and the ‘Best K-Pop’ category, alongside FIFTY FIFTY, NewJeans, SEVENTEEN, Stray Kids and TOMORROW X TOGETHER.

Jungkook leads the K-Pop nominations this year alongside TOMORROW X TOGETHER, with three nominations: alongside the “Best K-Pop” nomination, TXT are also nominated for the “Best Push” and “Best Group” awards, while BLACKPINK are conspicuous in their absence from the EMAs this year, with only one nomination in the form of the “Best Fans” award.
