Blackpink won the award for “Best Metaverse Performance” thanks to their recent virtual concert held in the video game PUBG, which also saw them debut their song Ready For Love.
Member Lisa picked up the award for best K-pop music video for her 2021 solo song Lalisa.
Although they were the only K-pop act there, Blackpink weren’t the only K-pop group to pick up awards.
