The K-pop groups BLACKPINK and Seventeen each won two 2022 MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs), the Continent's biggest music honors.

At the ceremony hosted at the PSD Bank Dome in Dusseldorf, Germany, BLACKPINK on Nov. 13 won the EMA for Best Metaverse Performance and the girl group's member Lisa won Best K-pop.

The 13-member boy band Seventeen won Best New and Best Push. The former honor goes to a notable new artist or group and the latter to the act showing the best performance among those selected by the "MTV Push Campaign," which introduces MTV artists over the past year.

BTS won Biggest Fans for the fifth consecutive year since 2018 and was nominated for two other awards: Best K-pop and Best Metaverse Performance.
