K-pop sensation BTS has won four MTV Europe Music Awards.


The group on Nov. 8 (U.S. Eastern Standard Time) earned the honors for Best Song, Best Group, Biggest Fans and Best Virtual Live in a ceremony aired worldwide.


BTS won for Best Group and Biggest Fans for the third straight year and earned its first Best Song honor for "Dynamite," which was released in August. 


After beating out prominent competitors to win the four awards, BTS in a video said, "We wanted to share this song with our fans during these hard times," adding, "These awards are truly meaningful."


At the MTV Video Music Awards in August, the group won Best Pop, Best K-pop, Best Choreography and Best Group. It was also selected Top Social Artist for the fourth straight year at the Billboard Music Awards last month.

BTS will release its newest album "Be" on Nov. 20.
