BTS' RM is an art aficionado

It's no secret that BTS's leader RM is a huge fan of art, and he's spoken about it in several interviews in the past.

He has become an art patron for several South Korean artists and now has an incredible collection of paintings and one-of-a-kind artworks. The talented Bangtan member recently revealed that he is thinking about establishing his own art museum/gallery someday.

He revealed that in 2018, he decided to visit the Art Institute of Chicago, where paintings by artists Seurat and Monet piqued his interest, and he hasn't looked back since.

In an interview with the New York Times, RM revealed that art brings him peace and joy in the fast world of K-pop. He said:

“I feel like they’re watching me. I’m motivated. I want to be a better person, a better adult, because there is this aura that is coming from these artworks on display”.

Fans demand popular podcaster Choi Wook apologise to BTS RM

The retort "Respect RM" takes over K-pop after podcaster Choi Wook attempts to dismiss Bangtan's leader.

On the September 5 episode of his podcast, Maebul Show, Choi Wook discussed Bangtan's military enlistment and their upcoming concert in Busan. He invited a panel of guests to take part in a discussion on the subject. One of the guests revealed that RM is their bias, which Choi Wook dismissed by saying that he isn't a popular member to begin with.

ARMYs were outraged when he referred to RM as "non-mainstream." Choi Wook has since issued an unconditional apology to the Bangtan leader and the fans.


BTS members will perform in a free global concert in Busan's Asiad main stadium on Thursday, October 15.
