K-pop group BTS had the best night at Billboard Music Awards (BMA) -- making history by becoming the first South Korean boy band group to win the BMA for Top Duo/Group and having celebs lining up to be seen with them.

Not only were they the first South Korean band to be nominated for the same but also received the Top Social Artist award third year in a row. The seven-member crew - Jin, V, J-Hope, Jungkook, Suga, Jimin, and RM - also performed 'Boy with Luv' with Halsey and danced to some other songs. But it doesn't just end there. The crew did some fun things together including a group hug after receiving their Top Duo/Group award.

The band, high on the success of their latest EP 'Map of the Soul: Persona', kept their victory speech short and sweet: "We're still the same boys from 6 years ago. We still have the same dreams, we still have the same thoughts. Let's keep dreaming the best dreams together."

The boy band despite their global domination in the field of music have been humble during their public appearances, further endearing themselves to fans across the world, and this was just another incident to prove the love BTS had for its ARMY.

The group is also very close-knit as was evident when one oif the members, V, was hesitant to speak in English. In this video, we can see the other members cheering him on to speak after which he says, "Every moment is a precious memory. We are so happy that we can be a part of this with our fans."

They not just encouraged each other, but also helped each other fix their jackets at the red carpet before posing together for some fun pictures.

A fan shared another video where one could see Tye Sheridan waiting in a queue to meet the members right behind Sophie Turner. It was not just Sheridan, but many other members of the American music fraternity were seen fascinated by the band and Joe Jonas even serenaded them during his performance.

And we leave the best for the last - Jin and his antics! Fans noticed that Jin traveled with his favorite stuffed toy, RJ, to the awards, probably for some luck and it worked. They did win two BMAs! He was also caught by the camera while munching on some popcorn and didn't hesitate to pose and that's 'EatJin' for you.

The singer has his own 'mukbang' show which is published on his blog, where he eats different kinds of food and talks to his fans.

So his fans were not surprised that he would pull this one at the awards!
