Tyla:

Hey, Billboard, it’s Tyla. 

SEVENTEEN:

We are SEVENTEEN and this is the Billboard Music Awards pre-show yay!

SEVENTEEN:

What’s up party people? It’s Tetris, and it’s pre-show time. The Billboard Music Awards are going down tonight, and we’re giving you a sneak peek at the hottest performers and some of the biggest finalists ahead of the show, starting with one of my faves, it’s k-pop sensation. My boys SEVENTEEN. I am so happy to be hanging out with you guys again. It’s been a long time, but you’re here for the Billboard Music Awards, and you guys took over the Santa Monica Pier. You guys are also doing SEVENTEEN THE CITY there, so how did that feel? 

SEVENTEEN:

About six months ago, I visited Santa Monica while traveling, and hearing that we’ll be performing in that same space is truly exciting. I feel like it’s going to be a unique experience. 

I mean, I know it’s gonna feel different for you. Mingyu, but Joshua, you’re basically the king of LA. You grew up walking these streets. So how was that for you as well?

SEVENTEEN:

I mean, Santa Monica in general, is like the place that I used to hang out the most with my friends, like on the weekend. So it means a lot that we’re gonna be able to perform there and to have a studio event at Santa Monica Pier.

Keep watching for more!
