B: And the seven members wrote on social media recently, “We hope our music can be heard and loved for what it is, rather than being divided by region or language.”

A: After the statement, the Grammys’ YouTube channel deleted BTS’ performance videos of “Dynamite” and “Butter.” What a complete lack of respect for the artists.

A: 最近樂壇、影壇有什麼大新聞?

B: 南韓天團「防彈少年團」(BTS)宣布不報名2027年葛萊美獎,令全球歌迷大感震驚!

A: 5度入圍的BTS,是為了要抵制新增設的「最佳亞洲流行音樂表演獎」,以抗議韓流被邊緣化。

B: 據7名成員在社群媒體寫道︰「我們希望音樂被聽見、被喜愛是因為它本身,而不是被地域或語言所區分。」

A: 葛萊美獎YouTube頻道在該宣布後,竟刪除了該團之前《Dynamite》、 《Butter》的表演影片,真是太不尊重藝人啦。
