Monsta X's global domination continues with MTV EMA nomination, all-English album

Monsta X will release their second English album in December after their domestic comeback in November this year

Nothing else screams global domination other than an all-English album from a K-pop group. After their last full English album, ‘All About Luv’ released in 2020, became a global success, six-member group Monsta X has announced their second full English album, ‘The Dreaming’. Ahead of the release of their English album, Monsta X pre-released the single ‘One Day’, which was received very positively online.

The upcoming album will be their second official comeback as a five-member group as the group’s leader Shownu is on a hiatus due to his mandatory military enlistment. On October 19, Monsta X announced their official comeback with a domestic album that will be released in November of 2021.

MTV EMA nominee, Monsta X

While rookie K-pop groups are only grabbing attention from international fans only recently, Monsta X has always had a pretty loyal and amazing fanbase in the US and UK. On September 10, the members took to Twitter to thank fans for their love and support as the group was awarded the title of ‘The Best Artist in the USA’ at the sixth annual Top Ten Awards.

Their growing international popularity adds all the more reason for the group to be nominated on one of the biggest award shows in the UK. On October 21, MTV announced the nominees for their 2021 Europe Music Awards which features a few K-pop acts in multiple categories. Monsta X was nominated on the K-pop Category at the upcoming MTV EMAs. Members took to Twitter to thank their fans and ask them to vote for the group as voting has started as of October 21 for fans worldwide.
