Korean-pop sensation BTS continues to strike the right chord with awards show voters.

The seven-member group from Seoul led all artists by winning four honors at the virtual MTV Europe Music Awards on Sunday, including the coveted prize for best group.

BTS also received the award for best song for “Dynamite,” the ultra-catchy feel-good anthem that debuted atop Billboard’s U.S. Hot 100 chart following its release in August.

To win that loaded category, BTS beat Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande’s “Rain On Me,” Roddy Ricch’s “The Box,” The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” Dua Lipa’s “Don’t Start Now” and DaBaby’s “Rockstar,” which features Roddy Ricch.

Gaga was another big winner at the MTV Europe show, as she was named artist of the year. She emerged victorious in a field that included Miley Cyrus, The Weeknd, Harry Styles, Justin Bieber and Dua Lipa as well.

The honor for best video went to DJ Khaled’s “Popstar,” which features Drake, while the award for best collaboration went to Karol G’s “Tusa,” which features Nicki Minaj.

Other winners at the remote show, which featured prerecorded performances, included Doja Cat in the best new artist category and Cardi B in the best hip hop field.

It’s been a successful stretch for the wildly popular BTS, which previously won four awards at the MTV Video Music Awards in August, including the honor for best group at that show.

At Sunday’s MTV Europe Music Awards, BTS also won the awards for best fans and best virtual live performance for Bang Bang Con.
