Tablo Supports BTS’s Withdrawal from Grammy Submission: “Arirang Is More Important Than the Grammys”… Supporting Their Musical Choice

With the group BTS deciding not to submit an entry to the Grammy Awards, Epik High's Tablo has publicly expressed his support.

On the 29th, Tablo shared a post by BTS leader RM on his social media, writing “ARIRANG > GRAMMYS”.

This is being interpreted as a message of support for BTS's decision not to submit their 5th studio album 'ARIRANG' to the 69th Grammy Awards.

Along with this decision, BTS conveyed their wish that "music be evaluated on its own merits, without being distinguished by region or language." This signifies their intention to prioritize the musical values ​​and direction they wish to convey over the evaluations of specific awards ceremonies.

Tablo, also a musician who has built his own unique musical world over a long period of time, appears to have shown respect for the artist's creation and expression by empathizing with BTS's decision.
