Talking about BTS’ goal, he added, “However, we’re not just considering listeners and audience but what we really want to do, what we must show and want to show, we focus our inner voice and want to show a process that shows maturity as an artist, so we’re preparing a lot of things. Well, I won’t be able to say anything except ask you to wait, there’s no measure like all I can say is, ‘Please wait a little, please.'”
Fans tease RM about his ring from Jin
As he spoke, BTS fans spotted the diamond ring on his finger. A person said, “Ring on wedding finger?

RM on why he wore Jin’s ring on wedding finger
During the chat, he shared that he celebrated his birthday eve with BTS members Jimin and V, aka Kim Taehyung. He said, “I had dinner with V last night in a restaurant. I drank a few glasses of whiskey with Jimin. I met Jin hyung, who gave me this ring. I’m not going to marry, I’m not married. Last night, I was drinking with Jimin in his house, we talked about what’s gonna be, where we’re moving on, and what we have to do after all these,” he said.
He also said, “Jin hyung gave me this! The reason I’m wearing it on my 4th ring finger is that it only fits there. Jin-hyung kept asking, ‘Doesn’t it fit anywhere else??’ It really doesn’t fit on any other finger. Let me show you! Jin hyung even tried to put it on here, but it didn’t fit. If it goes in here, it won’t come off—it gets stuck. So I had no choice but to wear it on my ring finger! I’m not gonna marry, I’m not married.” Earlier, on his Instagram Stories, RM shared a photo wearing a diamond ring and tagged Jin. RM wrote, “Jin hyungie gave me a gift.”
