BTS’s RM Appears to Respond to Jungkook’s Recent Dating Rumors
BTS’s RM sparks talk after addressing Jungkook’s dating drama in recent livestream.
The controversy began when RM spoke about his limits as BTS’ leader during the broadcast. He made it clear he can’t control or represent the members’ personal lives anymore, hinting at Jungkook’s ongoing dating rumors without naming him.
RM said fans expect him to explain every situation, but he just can’t do that now.
“And now, as you all know, with this job, whenever something happens, or when there’s an issue, or when something is about to come out and people talk about what the behind-the-scenes are like — I can’t really explain everything in detail right now.
What I really want to say is that I can no longer represent our team on my own. That’s because I’m just one person, one human being.
Back then, around 2017 and 2018, when we were actively promoting as BTS, I feel like I could do that to some extent. But after that, each of the members became fully independent individuals, each with their own boundaries, their own lifestyles, personalities, and ways of living.
So now, the idea that I should go to the company due to the members, or that I should somehow control or manage what the members do, that doesn’t really apply anymore. There were so many times when our team was on the verge of being disrupted or stopped entirely, as you all know, so I’m extremely grateful that we’re still able to be together.”

Twitter fans quickly caught on, saying RM sounded fed up and was telling Jungkook to take responsibility.
“BREAKING NEWS
RM in his recent live said he’s aware of what’s going on, but there’s nothing he can do about someone else’s situation.
It really sounds like he’s fed up and implying that Jungkook needs to take responsibility for his own actions.”— @loviewchgu
Others said RM’s words reveal how tiring leadership has become for him, especially dealing with the members’ individual messes.
“good for him tho. this is probably one of the reasons why being the leader felt like a burden to him, I know he was tired of being involved in their individual mess each time, they are +30yo, it’s about time some of them own up their lives.”

For now, RM hasn’t said more. But fans clearly heard his message loud and clear.

그리고 이제 뭐 아시다시피 이 직업이 무슨 일이 생겼거나 혹은 뭐 무슨 뭐가 있을때 혹은 아니면 뭐가 나와야 되는데 비하인드가 어떻다 저쩌다 제가 지금 말을 다 할 수가 없어요 왜냐면은 그 제가 말씀드리고 싶은 것은 저는 이제 더이상 저희 팀을 제가 대표할수가 없어요 왜냐하면 저는 고작… https://t.co/Sdn7HrTDLV pic.twitter.com/B7f8cKxINo
