With YouTube broadcasting these acknowledgments to their whopping 49.8 million followers, throngs of fans for both groups rallied around their favorite idols and showered them with congratulations and praise.

"Dude they are the kings," and "I'll bet if Big Bang actually had produced a new single since 2012, there'd be even more views," said Big Bang fans.

"Queens forever," "Legends," and "We need them in America!" said 2NE1 fans.

The YouTube Music Awards - or YTMA for short - is an awards show presented by the world's most popular video-sharing website to "recognize the biggest and emerging artists to watch on YouTube in 2015."
