Almost everyone was convinced that the award would go to BTS, hopefully BLACKPINK or even TWICE, but it seems that a new force has emerged in the Asian scene and it is none other than Stray Kids, who were chosen by the general public as the popular group of the year, beating BTS, who had been undefeated for several years.
