‘Global Pop Star’ Jungkook Secures Another Trophy at a Prestigious American Music Award Ceremony. Jungkook clinched the ‘The Male Artist of the Year’ title at the ‘2024 People’s Choice Awards’ in Santa Monica, California, USA, on the 18th (local time).
Having clinched ‘The Collaboration Song of the Year’ at the preceding (2022) awards gala for the track ‘Left and Right (Feat. Jung Kook of BTS)’ released in 2022 alongside Charlie Puth, Jungkook has now bagged People’s Choice Awards accolades two years consecutively.
Upon securing ‘The Collaboration Song of the Year,’ Jungkook marked a historic moment as the inaugural K-pop solo artist to triumph at this prestigious ceremony.
The ‘Male Artist of the Year’ category at the latest People’s Choice Awards witnessed intense rivalry from luminaries such as Morgan Wallen, boasting the highest number of chart-topping hits on the US Billboard ‘Hot 100’ in 2023, alongside Bad Bunny, The Weeknd, and Drake, who ranked among the top 2 to 4 most streamed artists on Spotify last year, the globe’s premier music streaming platform.
In the previous year, Jungkook marked his official solo debut with the launch of his inaugural single ‘Seven (feat. Latto),’ followed by another solo track ‘3D (feat. Jack Harlow),’ and his solo album ‘GOLDEN.’
His ventures garnered exceptional triumph across diverse international charts, solidifying his position as a genuine ‘global pop star.’
In September of the previous year, Jungkook secured the ‘Song of Summer’ title with ‘Seven’ at the ‘2023 MTV Video Music Awards.’ Additionally, his track earned him ‘Best Song’ and ‘Best K-Pop’ honors at the ‘2023 MTV Europe Music Awards,’ making him the pioneering Korean solo artist to clinch two awards in these categories.
Furthermore, Jungkook received the accolade for ‘Top Global K-Pop Song’ at the ‘2023 Billboard Music Awards’ for the same song.
Jungkook is poised to contend for accolades in four categories at the upcoming ‘2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards’ in the USA on April 1st. His nominations span ‘Best Music Video,’ ‘Favorite Debut Album,’ ‘Kpop Artist Of The Year,’ and ‘Kpop Song Of The Year.’
