During a program he appeared on in the past, RM expressed doubts about dating and marriage as remaining single or choosing not to marry has become increasingly common in South кσяєα and around the world in recent years. "Can such a thing happen in my life? Before, I thought it was a natural process, but a few years ago, I thought, 'Maybe I won't get married?'", This thought had been on his mind for some time.

However, during a livestream not long ago, he seemed to have had a change of heart, thanks to his parents. RM shared, “My parents went to school together from elementary school, dated for nine years, and lived just five minutes apart. Seeing my parents like that, I naturally thought that I’d get married too.”

After all, nobody wants to be alone in this world, right? Although RM is not currently dating, he has never given up on the idea of romantic love. Interestingly, he has also been quite open about his past relationships on several occasions. One of the most memorable stories about his love life involves a romance from his school days and the reason it came to an end.

RM revealed that he had a memorable relationship in middle school that was “quite a big deal,” but it did not last long. After dating his ex-girlfriend for a short time, they realized they had very different values and were incompatible in many ways. This gradually led to growing disagreements that eventually turned into arguments.

Another factor that had a significant impact on their relationship was that his ex-girlfriend had a lot of male friends at the time. The more mature RM has said that he no longer considers this a big deal, but his middle-school self apparently felt differently. Back then, the situation bothered him quite a bit, and he did not like seeing his girlfriend surrounded by so many other guys.

It seems RM was just like many other boys in love, wanting his girlfriend to keep her distance from other men. This side of him has particularly amused fans!

Having a girlfriend in middle school may make for an interesting story, but for RM at the time, the relationship was far from smooth sailing. Still, his first love left him with plenty of memories and experiences. It seems that since that relationship ended, RM has not had another romance, as he is now deeply focused on his music career.

Meanwhile, RM has also revealed that his current ideal type is someone intelligent and feminine. He has shared that even if his girlfriend dresses casually, she would still be the most beautiful and attractive person in his eyes. He has also mentioned not smoking and not frequently going to nightclubs, suggesting that he is looking for a kind and positive woman.

Following the story of RM’s first love, fans couldn’t help but react and discuss it enthusiastically: "Namjoon is just so honest, pure", "I wonder how RM's former girl think of him now", "RM being a jealous boyfriend in middle school is soмєтнing I never knew I needed to hear", "He really has such a romantic side...at the end of the day, he's just normal boy", "Being Namjoon's first love and becoming part of history years later", "Not teenage Namjoon getting upset because his girlfriend had too many guy friends. He really was just like every other boy with his first love", "He’s grown so much, and it’s beautiful to hear how his perspective on love has changed over the years", "I hope he meets someone who makes him feel loved, understood, and happy someday",...
