Each of the BTS members has their own satoori, or regional dialect, that they speak — despite how hard they try to hide it! Born in Ilsan and Gwacheon, RM and Jin have Seoul/Gyeonggi dialect (also known as standard Korean). Meanwhile, Jimin and Jungkook (born in Busan) along with V and Suga (born in Daegu) have Gyeongsang dialect. Lastly, because J-Hope was born in Gwangju, he has Jeolla dialect.
Even non-Korean speaking fans can hear their different accents and word choices if they listen closely! Check out some of the times the members slipped into satoori below.
1. Jungkook’s smooth Busan accent is a fan favorite.

10. The other members’ behavior definitely rubbed off onto RM — They call it Namtoori.
more Namtoori
🐨 oh yeah it does look comfy (in a weird mix of Busan satoori and something wholly Namjoon)
🗣 what kind of satoori is that
