He also added, "It's all ARMYs who have made the miracle of being a'Grammy Nominee Artist'."
[RM/BTS: When we were trainees, we prepared something and left the biggest footprint for us during the growth period we dreamed of, and as we look for videos at every Grammy (award ceremony), we seem to dream like this vaguely now. ]
