BTS’s RM Addresses His Relationship Status In His Recent Livestream

He chose to give a straightforward answer.

On October 10 (KST), BTS‘s RM hosted a brief livestream from his home, interacting with ARMYs. During the broadcast, he suddenly addressed a question about his relationship status.

Aside from his widely acknowledged “President” title, RM is sometimes referred to as the perfect husband material. In the past, ARMYs often joked about how he might be secretly married with kids for all they knew.

Though the BTS leader has jokingly referred to these speculations and shut them down with hilarious responses before, much like his other bandmates, he has never seriously discussed his relationship status with ARMYs. A significant portion of the fans also feel that all members are entitled to privacy in their personal relationships.

In their decade-long career, there have been very few times when the BTS members have gotten involved in a dating “scandal,” but of late, there has been a shift in this track record. The most recent example is Jungkook, who suddenly found himself embroiled in a dating controversy right after the release of his second single, “3D.” Some alleged videos of him with a woman in his apartment surfaced online, and though most fans were quick to question their authenticity, he still couldn’t escape being asked about his relationship status during a live broadcast. Jungkook nonchalantly answered that he doesn’t have a girlfriend and asked fans to stop asking about it.

Everyone, I don’t have a girlfriend. I don’t have a girlfriend. I’m not meeting anyone. I only want to work, so I don’t feel a need to. Stop talking about it! I don’t have one! I don’t have one so just stay still! I don’t have one

— Jungkook

Though RM has not faced a controversy of this sort, he seems to have received similar comments on his latest livestream, enough to make the rapper notice. He read out one of the comments that said, “Introduce your girlfriend.”

In response, RM comically blurted out, “Oh sh*t,” adding, “I really want to, but I have none right now.” The rapper then hilariously asked fans to help out, “Can you introduce me one?”

Soon after his response, social media was filled with even funnier reactions from ARMYs. Some confessed that they thought he would really introduce his girlfriend right then, while others lined up to bag that spot.

Though idols dating is one of those “taboo” topics in K-Pop that artists try to steer clear of, RM’s laid-back attitude in his response is a welcome change.
