▶ BTS nominated for Grammy ‘Best Pop Group’ for 2 consecutive years

Let’s look at the first Hot People of the day.

The group BTS was nominated for the Grammy Awards in the ‘Best Pop Duo/Group Performance’ category with the digital single ‘Butter’ released in May.

With this, BTS was nominated for the Grammy Awards for the second year in a row.

At the 63rd Grammy Awards held in March, it was nominated for the same category for ‘Dynamite’, but failed to win the award.

BTS was initially expected to be nominated for ‘General Fields’, the 4th major prize, but unfortunately, they promised the following.

If they win at the 64th Grammy Awards to be held in February next year, BTS will form the ‘Grand Slam’, one of the top three popular music awards in the United States, following the Billboard Music Awards and the American Music Awards.

Where is the end of the new history that BTS writes?

▶ Einstein’s Theory of Relativity manuscript sold for 15.5 billion won

This is the second hot people.

A handwritten manuscript containing formulas for general relativity by Albert Einstein, a ‘genius physicist’, has been sold for over 15 billion won.

According to foreign media such as AFP, at an auction held in Paris, France, this manuscript was sold for 11.6 million euros, or about 15.5 billion won in Korean money.

It is about four times the appraised value before the auction, and is the highest price among documents left by Einstein.

This manuscript was written by Einstein in the 1910s in collaboration with his best friend Michel Besso in Switzerland.

All 52 pages contain preliminary work for the publication of the general theory of relativity in 1915, but the identity of the final successful bidder was not disclosed.
