SEOUL -- K-pop superstar BTS will unveil its new song at the Billboard Music Awards in May. The seven-member group was nominated for this year's Top Social Artist Award.
Billboard said Wednesday that BTS will present fans the world premiere of the group's never-before-heard single at the awards event on May 20 in Las Vegas. This is the group's second appearance at the Billboard Music Awards as they took the Top Social Artist Awards in 2017.
BTS expressed anticipation in the global event through social media. "Look out for our second appearance or - say what?- FIRST PERFORMANCE at the @BBMAs!" the boys wrote.
BTS will release its 3rd official album "LOVE YOURSELF: Tear" on May 18, two days before the Billboard event. Fans are guessing that the group may sing a song which is not included on the album. The awards show will feature other performers, including Dua Lipa, Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes.
