“So I need to think and have some alone time and then those thoughts can mature into something uniquely mine… I can’t physically mature anymore.” He said he feels like he should be contributing something more to the world right now, but he doesn’t really know what that is, so he just needs some time to have a think and figure out who he is and what he wants BTS to be.

“And it’s not just about music and work,” he added, noting that he’s also changed “as a human” over the past decade. You have to keep producing music and keep doing something.” He described getting up in the morning and having his makeup done and feeling like he doesn’t have any time for growth. RM, 27, said he always thought of BTS as being different from other groups, but that the “problem” with K- pop and the idol system is that “they don’t give you time to mature. I don’t know what kind of story I should tell now.” “For me, it was like the group BTS was within my grasp until ‘On’ and ‘Dynamite,’ but after ‘Butter’ and ‘Permission to Dance,’ I didn’t know what kind of group we were anymore.” He said that whenever he writes lyrics and songs, the story and message he wants to spread is very important, “but it was like that was gone now. “We have to accept that we’ve changed,” RM said as his bandmates looked on with decidedly more serious faces than during the earlier part of the celebratory dinner. 1 Billboard Hot 100 hits “Dynamite,” “Butter,” “Permission to Dance” and “Life Goes On” and, he realized, “the group has definitely changed.” I started music and became BTS because I had a message for the world.” He added that he didn’t know what he would do after the group released “On,” the second single from their 2020 Map of the Soul: 7 album.īut then the COVID-19 pandemic shut everything down and the band focused on recording new singles, including their No. “It made me think I’m happy just being together. “Gathering like this today and shooting content, I’m glad we’re BTS … what would I do if we weren’t BTS?” RM asked.

And since Suga brought it up, RM felt free to expound on the apparent upcoming break following the group’s relentless pace since forming in 2013. “Yeah, we have to talk about the direction we’re taking,” Suga confirmed. “Should we talk about why we’re not doing the FESTA or making content?” he added. “We’re going on a hiatus now,” Suga casually stated at one point apropos of nothing else they were talking about in a segment that suddenly made the tone more sober.
