Boy group BTS (BTS) showed off its powerful presence by being nominated for a number of categories at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards (2026) in the United States.

On the 8th (local time), the iHeartRadio Music Awards announced the list of nominees for this year's awards. Jin and J-Hope were nominated side by side for the K-pop Artist of the Year category. J-Hope was nominated for "K-pop Song of the Year" for his solo single "Killin" It Girl (feat. GloRilla) and "Sweet Dreams (feat. Miguel)" was included in the "Favorite K-pop Collaboration" category. In addition, J-Hope was also named in the Favorite TikTok Dance with "MONA LISA" and "SPAGHETTI" (feat. j-hope of BTS), which featured in "MONA LISA," and competed for awards in a total of four categories.

Last year, J-Hope continued his global career with a solo single project that led to "Sweet Dreams (feat. Miguel), "MONA LISA" and "Killin' It Girl (feat. GloRilla)." All three songs were nominated for the ceremony, confirming their position as a solo artist once again. In particular, "Killin' It Girl" (feat. GloRilla) broke J-Hope's highest ranking in terms of solo songs by ranking 40th on the U.S. Billboard main song chart "Hot 100." Jin also recorded "Career High" with his second solo album "Echo" in 2025. The album ranked third on the Billboard main album chart 'Billboards 200', its own highest ranking.

Disney+'s original series, "Is This Right?!," about Jimin and Jungkook's unpredictable friendship trip, was selected as a competition for "Favorite On Screen." Following the first season last year, he is once again nominated for season 2 and is trying to win the award.

The iHeartRadio Music Awards is a music awards ceremony hosted by iHeartRadio, an American online radio station, since 2014. It selects the most played artists and songs on iHeartRadio stations and applications during the year. This year's ceremony will be held on March 26 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles and broadcast on FOX Channel in the United States.

BTS posted 24 songs on the Circle Chart 2025 annual "Global K-pop Charts." Group songs as well as solo songs of all members were evenly distributed in the rankings, showing their influence.

BTS will release its fifth full-length album on March 20. It's been about three years and nine months since the full comeback.
