Seventeen has been honored with their first win at the 2024 Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs).

On the 13th, Seventeen was selected as the winner of the Top K-pop Touring Artist category at the 2024 Billboard Music Awards held in the United States. This award is given to the most successful K-pop artist in terms of touring for the year.

Seventeen expressed, "We believe this is an award we can receive because of Carat (fan club name). We strive to repay Carats' love with good music and performances, and fans always amaze us with even greater love."

They continued, "Receiving this award while our world tour is in full swing makes it even more meaningful," adding, "It feels like a message to keep moving forward and getting closer to each and every audience member."

Lastly, they added, "Once again, we thank Carats and everyone who joins Seventeen on tour. We will strive to become artists who can deliver positive energy and happiness through music."

They then showcased the 'LOVE, MONEY, FAME' stage. The guerrilla concert-themed performance was filmed in downtown Los Angeles and Santa Monica Pier.

Seventeen exuded their unique free-spirited and relaxed aura. The song's message, "Love is more important than money and fame," resonated throughout the city. The audience responded with enthusiastic cheers.

Seventeen toured the globe this year. In January, they held stadium concerts in Bulacan and Macau. From March to May, they entered large stadiums in Korea and Japan through an encore tour.

In October, they kicked off the world tour 'Seventeen Right Here' at the Goyang Sports Complex Main Stadium. They continue to sell out tickets in the United States and Japan.

Meanwhile, Seventeen will continue their tour on the 14th and 15th at Kyocera Dome Osaka. On the 19th, 21st, and 22nd, they will be visiting Fukuoka PayPay Dome.
