He asked RM if he was sad about not getting an exemption, to which the latter replied in a pragmatic manner that he was not upset about getting an exemption because he wants to dutifully serve his country.He added that only if he fulfills his duty will he be able to talk about his rights as a Korean citizen. He also believes it is time to become an adult.The Monk advised him that devoting a year and a half to serving the country is not a waste of time at all and can use this precious time to self-reflect and continue making good music even in old age.In other news, Indigo held onto its number-one spot on Billboard’s World Albums Chart and Billboard 200 chart for a third non-consecutive week. This has made BTS’ leader the first Korean soloist in history to have an album spend three weeks in the top 40 of the aforementioned chart.
