At the 2025 Series em Cena (SEC) Awards—a major Brazilian accolade celebrating global music and pop culture—BTS members didn’t just show up; they literally owned the night.
Here’s the breakdown of their major wins:
- Jungkook snatched International Song of the Year for “Never Let Go,” marking his third consecutive win in this category for three different solo releases—“Left & Right,” “Seven,” and now this heartfelt track dedicated to fans.
- J-Hope secured not one but two awards: Asian Artist of the Year and International Collaboration of the Year for “Sweet Dreams” featuring Miguel.
- Jimin claimed International Album of the Year for his solo MUSE.
- Jin was crowned International Male Artist of the Year, adding another feather to his already impressive solo chapter.
So, Jungkook apparently walked in and said, “Three years, three different songs, three wins. Just routine.” Meanwhile J-Hope casually collected accolades like he was picking up coins. Jimin? His album MUSE is still kicking—they remembered. And Jin? He does nothing but add titles to his belt.
What really stands out is that all of these awards were decided by public vote—meaning ARMY didn’t just cheer. ARMY executed. Flew the ballots in, tapped for hours, and delivered a victory sweep like nobody else could manage.
Here’s the glorious irony: this is an international award. Yet BTS members are so dominant that even foreign music bodies can barely escape their gravitational pull. Talk about global influence.
Let’s not underestimate the irony in all of this. People once questioned whether BTS solo careers could make waves. Now each solo member wins international honors that most artists yearn for an entire career—but as mini milestones along the path to a full-group comeback.
Labels and industry insiders, take note: BTS isn’t just about group fame. Their solo versatility and fanbase dedication are rewriting the rules of what “idols” can achieve—even as individuals.
At this point, calling Jimin, Jungkook, J-Hope, and Jin solo acts feels like an understatement. They’re the blueprint. And for ARMY? This sweep wasn’t just a win. It was proof. Proof that when BTS speaks—even silently—billions listen and vote.
So next time someone asks if BTS solo performances matter, show them the SEC Awards list. Because these trophies don’t just shine—they sparkle with legacy.
ARMY delivered, BTS did them proud, and the world watched as four names rocketed to the top all in one night. More than winners—they’re icons.
