RM sparks discussion with thought-provoking social media post on 'True Revenge'
RM has ignited discussions across the online sphere with a recent post on his social media platform. On March 28, RM took to his Instagram Stories to share a note penned on May 8, 2017, which resonated deeply with fans. In the memo, he wrote, "True revenge is to be strong. To survive. To protect".
The impact of RM's message reverberated through various online communities, prompting reflections from fans. One fan, in particular, took to a popular online forum to contextualize the significance of RM's words within the broader narrative of BTS's journey.
The fan recounted, "During the time BTS was on the rise, it's well-known that fandoms from both Korea and overseas harassed the group to the point it was almost a crime. Even broadcasting companies abused their power over them. They told the group to do the pre-recording 20 times and made the members worn out. And then told them to appear on the live broadcast because they were nominated for 1st place but then the group wasn't even nominated. Other idols would ridicule them when they appeared on the broadcast when they weren't even nominated (This was revealed in their biography)", as quoted by Koreaboo.
The fan further revealed, "The other idols always harassed them under the pretense of it being a 'diss' because they (BTS) were from a small company. It's so obvious that what happened behind the scenes was even more severe".
Moreover, the fan shed light on the subtle yet insidious forms of discrimination BTS encountered, stating, "When entering the U.S. market, it's said that they also faced racial discrimination within that environment (But still they donated 1 billion KRW/750,000 USD to anti-racial discrimination movements and delivered speeches on this topic at the White House). What's really cool about BTS is that they chose to become stronger for their true revenge. After becoming stronger, they tried to exert a positive influence and became even more admirable".
Netizens are united in their awe of BTS's remarkable career trajectory, describing it as nothing short of extraordinary. One netizen remarked, "I can't believe all that is true in the biography". Another netizen emphasized, "This is what true strength is". One commenter recounted, "They were told to perform 'Danger' 20 times in the summer time". Amidst the admiration, one of the admirers emphasized that BTS's success is not arbitrary, stating, "There is always a reason behind the success".
