BTS ARMY has time and again stood up for the group in times of need and has shown their never-ending support. In the latest updates, online discussions led to backlash as the
KMA
nomination list does not have
RM
's album mentioned anywhere.
RM's album left out of the Korean Music Award list
BTS member RM's full solo album 'Right Place, Wrong Person' did not get any nominations at this year's KMA list, sparking major outrage. Fans showed their concerns in the matter and shared that the album not being included was a surprise for many, as at the time of its release, the album received a lot of praise. Critics and experts also shared their insights and praised the album for its unique style and lyricism.
The album was not considered for KMA's nominations due to genre classification issues with the album.
KMA committee member shares insights
Committee member Jo Hye Rim, in a recent interview she held, shared her insights on the issue at hand. Citing RM's album 'Right Place, Wrong Person' as an example, she shared how the committee fails to categorise music due to its ambiguous nature. In the interview with Ling Rong Dang, Hye Rim shared that this does not come down to the quality of the album but to the conflict of where such music is to be categorised.
In an online social media post she quoted, 'There are often songs that are not selected because the genre is ambiguous. In the case of albums that aim for the alternative genre, such as those by RM or Balming Tiger, even though they are great albums, there were many internal concerns about selecting them because they do not fall into a clear genre. Sometimes, the distinction between music genres can actually be an obstacle,' as per report from Pinkvilla.
Backlash and fans criticising the KMA committee
After news of RM's lack of nominations in the KMA list, Hye Rim's statement further aggravated fans. BTS ARMY took to various social media platforms to show their disdain and concern about the matter.
Many called the committee out for not being professional and for not being able to categorise him. Citing concerns within the committee, fans expressed their opinions on the matter online extensively. Many even shared that complaints should be filed in the matter and questioned the skills of the KMA committee members.

Chennai Book Park sees a steady stream of crowd on Day 1
Status: cleared Chennai: Those entering the Central Metro station now have one-stop access to books from prominent publishers, spanning from Higginbothams to Katha, at the Chennai Book Park, opened by Chief Minister M K Stalin on Tuesday. An initiative of the School Education Department to kindle a reading habit among the public, the book park saw a steady stream of visitors on the first day. Nestled between a pharmacy and an eatery, en route to the ticket counter, one would rarely miss the park. Decked up with flowers and carpets, over 4,300 titles from over 13 publishers were on display. Among these, 84 titles were released on Tuesday. Most of the stalls belonged to the Tamil Nadu Text Book and Educational Services Corporation (TNTESC), which manages the functioning of the park. Nakkheeran, Shanti, and Coral were among the prominent publishers who set up stalls. Schoolbooks, guides, and books for competitive exams, mostly Tamil, were available. The cost of books ranged from ₹50 to ₹3,500. The CMRL is yet to fix signage for the park at entries and exits. TNTESC superintendent G Balaji said the park will be open from 9 am to 9 pm. "The schedule on weekend timings will be finalised in a couple of days. At least three staff, including security personnel, will man the premises," he said. Chezhian Kumarasamy, Executive Director of an advertising firm, said it was good to see people at a book park in a digital age where mobile phones call the shots. "I wish more such parks would be opened in places such as airports and MRTS stations," he said. Some, like law student L Lakshmi, who walked in thinking there would be a lot of autobiographies and non-fiction Tamil books, said she was surprised to find English books on self-help. Publication managers, however, aren't too optimistic about sales. "I don't know how many people will walk in. They are in a hurry to board trains," said Sivakumar, manager of one of the publications. By 8:50 pm, the facility registered a sale of about ₹35,000. The stalls have tied up with the TNTESC on a revenue-sharing model, said Katha Books CEO Ravin Carr. "Between 25% and 40% of the sale cost (depending on the size of the stalls) will be shared with the govt," he said. At the event, the Chief Minister also inaugurated 110 library buildings built across all districts at a cost of ₹29.80 crore and 70 special libraries at bus stands, hospitals, and district collectorates.
