BTS (BTS) Jin once again proved his status as a global solo artist by winning the K-POP Awards hosted by Japan's largest Hallyu media.

"Don't Say You Love Me," the title song of Jin's second mini album "Echo," won the "International Hit of the Year" category at the "BreakTudo Awards 2025" held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and was named the best K-pop male solo song of 2025 by Billboard Brazil. The "2025 Asian Pop Music Awards (APMA) proved its global influence once again by winning both "Record of the Year" and "Top 20 Songs of the Year" at the same time.
