On the 6th (local time), the ‘2024 MTV Video Music Awards’ (2024 MTV VMA) announced this year’s list of nominees on its official website and social media, revealing that Jungkook was nominated in two categories, ‘Best Collaboration’ and ‘Best K-pop,’ for his song ‘Seven.’


In particular, Jungkook competed in the ‘Best Collaboration’ category against global pop stars such as Taylor Swift, Post Malone, and Drake, once again proving his status as a global pop star.


Jungkook was nominated for the ‘Song of Summer’ in 2022 with his collaboration track ‘Left and Right (Feat. Jung Kook of BTS)’ with Charlie Puth, becoming the first Korean solo artist to receive this nomination, and has now been nominated for the ‘MTV VMA’ for three consecutive years.


At last year’s awards ceremony, his song ‘Seven’ was selected as the winner of the ‘Song of Summer,’ making Jungkook the first Korean solo artist to win in this category.


Jungkook’s first solo single ‘Seven,’ released in July last year, took the world by storm upon its release and quickly rose as a ‘mega hit song.’ The track achieved great success on major global music charts, ranking No. 1 on the US Billboard main song chart ‘Hot 100,’ No. 3 on the UK Official Singles Chart, and reached 1 billion streams in the shortest time ever on Spotify, the world’s largest music streaming platform.


Additionally, in April, Billboard ranked ‘Seven’ No. 1 on the ‘2024 International Power Players’ list, based on its performance on the ‘Global (excluding US)’ chart. This made the song the most popular track in over 200 countries and regions worldwide, excluding the United States, as certified by Billboard.



The ‘2024 MTV VMA’ will be held on September 10 at the UBS Arena in New York.
