🏆 RM, the Poet Who Conquered the AMAs
On a night where stars lit up Los Angeles, RM of BTS quietly carved his name into history. At the 2025 American Music Awards, he was crowned Favorite K-pop Artist, making him the first-ever K-pop artist to win both as part of a group and as a soloist.
This wasn’t just a win. It was a message — that artistry, sincerity, and vision resonate across the world. RM stood tall, not behind a beat or choreography, but with lyrics that reflect the maze of being human.
🌌 From Group Glory to Solo Grace
BTS first claimed the AMA spotlight in 2021, sweeping categories including Artist of the Year. But this time, it was different. RM wasn’t surrounded by his members. He stood alone — and shone just as brightly.
His second solo album, Right Place, Wrong Person, didn’t chase trends. It told stories. It wandered, hesitated, admitted flaws — and for that very honesty, the world listened. The album appeared on year-end lists by Billboard, Rolling Stone, and NME.
And its title track ‘LOST!’? It didn’t just chart. It won Best Music Video at the Shark Music Video Awards, along with accolades for Direction and R&B/Soul Video.
💜 Why This Moment Feels So Personal to Fans
When RM said, “I’m just trying to find where I belong,” fans didn’t just hear it — they felt it.
This AMA trophy isn’t about prestige. It’s about a man who dared to whisper in a world that screams. It’s about connection, growth, and letting your soul lead the way.
ARMY, this win is yours too. Because you listened when no one else did. Because you believed in the art when it was still finding its shape.
