BTS emerged as the big winners from this year’s MTV Europe Music Awards, along with Ed Sheeran.
The Butter singers – made up of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook – continued their quest for world domination at the bash, held in Budapest on Sunday.
They scooped a total of four awards on the night, taking home gongs for best pop, best K-Pop, best group and the biggest fans – which will definitely delight their Army.
While the seven-piece group weren’t there to collect their trophies in person, we can imagine their dynamite celebrations.
It was also a winning night for Ed , who nabbed the best artist award, and best song for Bad Habits.
To be fair, it’s a total bop.

The 30-year-old also opened the ceremony, which was hosted by Saweetie, with Kim Petras and Maluma among the other performers on the night.
Yungblud, who closed the show, was handed the award for best alternative, and hailed the trophy as a ‘tribute to individualism’.
Recalling being ‘terrified’ of who he wanted to be as a youngster, he added: ‘If you are out there and you feel you cannot be who you are – you can be.

‘Keep fighting, keep being brilliant.’
The musician is set to become very busy in the near future, as he has been tipped to take on the role of Boy George in his upcoming biopic.
It was recently announced that Harry Styles is no longer in the running for the part, with Boy George personally naming Yungblud, real name Dominic Richard Harrison, as a fitting replacement.
