K-pop band BTS took home the award for the Best Music Documentary award for their documentary Break The Silence: The Movie at the MTV Music & TV Awards this year. The documentary takes the audience behind the scenes of the K-pop group's Love Yourself: Speak Yourself stadium tour that was released last year in September. Post the award announcement, the MTV Awards shared a video clip of the band members on Twitter with a message for the band's fans. The video caption reads: "#BTSArmy, you BUTTER believe it! @bts_twt is taking home the golden popcorn for Best Music Documentary at the #MTVAwards: UNSCRIPTED!"
In the video, band members RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, V and JungKook are seen accepting the award. Taking the lead, RM is heard saying, "Thank you MTV for the Best Music Documentary award. BTS world tour ‘Love Yourself: Speak Yourself’ was an unforgettable experience for us and ARMY as well. We’re really glad that these records were appreciated by so many. Thank you MTV and ARMY!”
