On this day when sometimes even felt insignificant myself, I want to sincerely thank you for the heartfelt congratulations you've sent to me.

Thank you so much.

Thanks to you, I'm holding up well.

You know that, right?

There is a saying in the Buddha.

'You only live by yourself as a beacon.'

When you're at a loss in Hwacheon

When I get angry for no reason, I think of this word.

There are a lot of things I want to say at this moment

Today, I'm thinking of replacing it with a few pictures I post on Instagram.

Like the RPWP (or the documentary-)

There must be a time and a place to talk in a more beautiful and wonderful way.

It's not here right now.

My military life is now halfway through. 

Every time I walked 3km at Nonsan Training Center

It's the halfway point where you're out of breath. It's gratuitous.

Snow falls and the sun changes

After the weather gets warm and cherry blossoms bloom

I'll come back bravely next time.

Good day, good words and good heart. Please stay healthy. I love you.”




RM was also celebrated by fellow BTS member J-Hope, who shared a picture of himself with RM. J-Hope added a cheerful birthday candle GIF over RM’s head, extending his birthday wishes and adding to the festive mood.

J-Hope's Instagram story

RM, born on September 12, 1994, developed a passion for English during his childhood by watching the American sitcom Friends with his mother. As a student, he actively wrote poetry and won several awards for his work. He shared his poetry on an online website for about a year, gaining moderate attention. Although he initially considered a literary career, he later shifted his focus. At age 11, RM discovered hip-hop music through Epik High's Fly, which sparked his interest in becoming a rapper. He even persuaded his mother to support his dream, asking her if she preferred to have a son who was a top rapper or a student ranked 5,000th.

Since then, he has played a significant role in producing and writing lyrics for many of the group's tracks. As the beloved leader of BTS, RM continues to be a source of comfort and inspiration for many fans.
