On this day, a video clip from the live broadcast of the 7 BTS members on July 1st caught the attention of fans when RM mentioned the swearing video that had previously become a hot topic.
RM was previously caught at Jin's fan concert held at the Goyang Auxiliary Stadium on June 28th. While he was talking to V, he saw a bug landing on his left hand and ¢υяѕєd at it, saying "Shibal" and "Ah, f*ck!".
V, who was watching the whole thing, couldn’t hold back his laughter. RM kept shaking his hand as if trying to get rid of the remains, and at one point, even wiped the hand that the bug had landed on against his pants. Soon after, he composed himself and calmly continued watching the performance.
The moment was captured by a fan cam and quickly spread across social media and online communities. Netizens reacted humorously with comments like, “You can tell exactly what word he said just by looking at his mouth,” “Only кσяєαns would recognize that mouth movement,” and “Even idols fяєαк out when they see bugs.”
Finding that the video went viral on social media, RM spoke up and explained the "awkward" situation at that time. He said, "Suddenly, a bunch of my friends started sending me that meme. I didn’t even know I was being filmed. Like, five lovebugs landed on me at the same time. So while brushing them off, I kind of unconsciously [¢υяѕєd it]".
Jin agreed, saying, "A lot of them went into my mouth". Meanwhile, j-hope and V seemed to laugh excitedly when they saw the leader "defending" his viral "swearing" situation.
Meanwhile, RM's case has been sympathized by fans as the "love bugs" have been rampant in large numbers in the northwestern region, including Eunpyeong-gu, Seoul and Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do recently. They cover the streets and trees, causing inconvenience and even fear to residents because of their habit of flying towards humans.
Netizens have made many cute comments after RM's sharing:
- What do you think it means, RM, that you are the favorite landing spot of lovebugs?
- Our nature fairy is back
- The love bugs were mating all over the DUJEON light dome on the second evening
- he knows? His friends sent it to him? And there's me who keep wondering if they saw us fιgнтing so hard to vote for him for AMA. Oh lord, keep these 7 boys eyes of armytwt. Cos it's messy here sometimes
- The lovebug season in кσяєα is INSANE rn, they're everywhere!! Way more than normally apparently, no wonder they also wanted to love on Joon
- It was funnier with Taehyung giggling next to him.
- I love everything’s about this HELP
- Who is gonna tell him we loved him c*rsing
- The lovebugs must have been army too wanting to greet him
- Tae heartily laughing at joonie c*rsing, hobi pretending that the bug doesn't scare him bcuz he has declared so in twice sana's show, joon's mom titling her head like, "did my son just c*rse in presence of company" & the two aunties behind namjoon being awkward with "yes he did". absolutly cinema.
- "i didn't even know i was being filmed" bts acting like they were not a superstar is always funny to me
- Joon they were normal bugs... You eroded their edges and they became love bugs!
