As BTS announced they would not submit entries for the Grammys, the Recording Academy drew attention by suggesting it may review its newly created Best Asian Pop Music Performance category. CEO Harvey Mason Jr. said some artists felt the category could not represent their music and stressed the Academy would keep adapting so musicians feel respected. Billboard interpreted this as a possible restructuring of the category from next year. Mason also said the category was created to celebrate the depth, diversity, and growth of Asian pop music, not to exclude artists, and that entering genre categories does not prevent eligibility for the major general-field awards.

On the morning of the 31st, BTS members SUGA, J-HOPE, and Jimin arrived in Korea via Incheon International Airport after finishing their North America tour, 'ARIRANG'.
