“Whenever I wear makeup and stand in front of the camera, I don’t know to what extent I should be honest. That’s the hardest part for me. We need to find ways to overcome this and I’m trying different things. I study, I read books. I need time to be fully me, the original me that I know. Being an idol, you have no choice but to have two identities. I invest a lot in my identity as BTS and RM. And this is really a dilemma, if we have to talk about these sad parts and guidelines, it’s very hard. How much can I share to not look weak to my fans and still remain faithful to them? How much truth can I get off my chest?”

happy birthday, kim namjoon

KIM NAMJOON’S BIRTHDAY COUNTDOWN: DAY 1

- “Thank you for being a great leader!“
- I am not a great leader. The members are making me a great leader.

KIM NAMJOON’S BIRTHDAY COUNTDOWN: DAY 2

RM - 2015
I wanted to show that I had two sides. I’m positive at some times and then negative at other times. I speak of hopes at some points and then forget about it later. You can just see it as something I made by pulling out the various rooms inside myself. I wanted to express the thought of, “There are these many sides inside of me, but in the end, this is me, and you who’s listening to this is just you too.”
