The 2024 Grammys red carpet styles that Kim Taehyung, aka V, wore are much missed by TS fans. The most “fashion forward” K-pop star is taking a brief break from the industry to do his necessary military service.
The “main character” of every occasion, nevertheless, is not going unremembered by fans, who are reminiscing over his legendary Grammy Award appearances from years past.
The groundbreaking Korean pop group BTS holds a unique position in the annals of the Record Academy. In 2020, BTS became the first K-pop act to receive an English single nomination for Dynamite.
They also performed on a stage similar to a heist at the Grammys, proving that their influence goes across language barriers. No music institution, not even Record Academy, can deny the group’s immense impact.
Not only did BTS perform at the Grammys, but their red carpet looks from years past also astonished the globe. Among the K-pop stars honored during the event, Kim Taehyung stood out for the attention-grabbing garments she wore.
