BTS‘ RM, recently took to a live broadcast to address various topics. He talked about many things, including a controversy he was involved in. Fans from around the world tuned in, eager to hear from their ult group’s leader.

RM began the session on a light note, expressing his joy at seeing a birthday ad dedicated to him. “It’s early, but still. I saw the birthday ad and I was very happy to see that!” he exclaimed. RM also talked about the new drama he’s watching—Netflix’s critically acclaimed black comedy-slash-thriller Mask Girl—and revealed that he only had one more episode left to watch. He also said he had seen the Disney/Pixar movie Elemental two times already and it tugged at his heartstrings both times.

He also shared that he had started tanning, but he’s been focusing on his body, not his face. He also mentioned spotting a beautiful rainbow, which he found less captivating than the ARMY watching his live. “What’s prettier than the rainbow is you all who’s watching this live,” he said with a chuckle.

He then hinted at being busy with a project. “I didn’t say I’m getting ready for the album, but I am getting ready for something!” he teased. Unfortunately, he remained tight-lipped about whatever it is he’s working on. All he said was, “It’s a serious project!”

RM talks Islam controversy

However, the mood shifted when RM addressed the allegations that he had insulted Islam via an old Instagram Story. “You guys keep saying I insulted a religion, but I didn’t. There was no intention or purpose to insult a religion I respect,” he firmly stated. 

He emphasized his respect for all beliefs and religions and expressed his awareness of the ongoing discussions on SNS. “It’s a song, OK? I’m not apologizing. I’m 30 years old. I can express my truth. Please, a word is a word. Don’t assume! Believe my words,” he urged.

RM‘s frustration was palpable as he continued, “I know I can’t convince everyone, and some might say ‘Oh you’re lying,’ but I can’t lie, guys. I’m being honest.” He asked ARMY to trust him and have a heart, expressing how challenging it was to hold in his feelings amidst the controversy.

Wrapping up the session, RM reassured fans, “Guys, don’t worry. Just believe me, and I’ll show you what’s inside, okay.” He admitted his life has been filled with hurdles and obstacles, but remained optimistic about focusing on his path and not letting negativity deter him. He ended with a heartfelt message to ARMY: “Stay healthy. I hope everything around you will be fine. Bye! I’m going to work. Peace out!” – K-Pop News Writer
