SEOUL -- Big Hit Entertainment CEO Bang Si-hyuk, who serves as the executive producer of K-pop boy band BTS, was chosen by Billboard as an international power player for the second time in two consecutive years.

Billboard unveiled the list of this year's International Power Players, and the 46-year-old godfather of BTS had his name on the "Recordings" section. Bang, who is well known as a genius producer, founded Big Hit in 2005 and unleashed BTS into the world in 2013.

"The mastermind behind BTS catapulted the seven-man K-pop band to No. 1 on both the Billboard Artist 100 and Billboard 200 charts and engineered a sold-out Love Yourself: Speak Yourself stadium tour across the globe," the American music magazine said.

Bang has pulled BTS onto the global stage, working with BTS members in every song and encouraging them to fully express their emotions in writing lyrics that moved the hearts of millions of fans across the globe.
