The 'Golden Maknae' said, "It’s truly an honor. It’s very hard to express my gratitude in words. Thank you, ARMY and everyone who loved this, without you, it wouldn’t have been possible. While working on Seven I enjoyed those moments and want to thank everyone and Billboard for giving me this award”.

BTS' Jimin also made his presence felt, securing nominations in four categories, and becoming the most nominated K-pop act. The categories include Top Billboard Global K-Pop Artist and Top K-Pop Album. 

BLACKPINK earned their first Billboard Music Award for their successful BORN PINK tour. Members of the K-pop girl group—Jennie, Jisoo, Rosé, and Lisa—marked this achievement, surpassing BTS' Suga D-Day and Twice's world tour for the top K-pop touring artist. With this win, the singers became the first K-pop group and the second girl group in history to receive this prestigious award.

Surpassing BTS Jimin, Stray Kids, Tomorrow X Together, and Twice, New Jeans, a new group, clinched their inaugural win at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards. The group debuted in 2022 under ADOR, a branch of the HYBE LABELS. Their performance on the night made a significant impact, leading Billboard to release their acceptance speech.
