RM, the charismatic K-pop rapper, songwriter, and leader of the worldwide popular boy band BTS, is celebrating his 30th birthday. On this occasion, let’s go back to when he was shocked by a cake mishap during his birthday livestream. 

It all happened three years ago on RM’s birthday livestream in 2021. RM was grooving and smiling to the beats of the happy birthday song with his birthday cake in his hands which had lit candles on it. He even moved the cake from one side to the other.  

The interesting twist came when RM chose to spring around on his armchair with the cake in his hands. While he was spinning around and came to full circle on the screen, he found, to his utter shock, that the candles on his cake had blown out from the movement. 

RM was shocked by this sudden cake mishap and had the most iconic expression on his face as he stared blankly at the candles that had already blown out. He stared at the screen and cake while waiting for the birthday song to the end.

When the song ended, RM gave a gummy smile, shouted, and acted like he blew the candles. The moment was iconic, and fans still reminisce fondly about it as another clumsy and funny moment of the BTS leader.
