RM Addresses His Marital Status After Being Teased By j-hope

Today marked the final performance night of BTS in Stanford, bringing their highly successful concert run to a close with explosive energy and crowds of around 50,000 attendees each night, earning overwhelming praise from local media. Jim Harrington, a pop critic for The Mercury News, confidently declared it “the biggest pop-culture event of the year in the Bay Area.” Meanwhile, Kiran Kaur of RIFF Magazine, a Bay Area music-focused media outlet, commented, “Returning to the Bay Area after eight years, BTS was bigger, bolder, and more emotionally expansive than ever.”

Right after the concert, j-hope, RM, V, and Jimin held a livestream together while eating late-night snacks and relaxing, as a way of saying goodbye to fans before leaving this tour stop. The atmosphere of the livestream was extremely cheerful, with the members talking about various topics, including checking in on their fathers’ health.

j-hope started by asking RM, “Namjoon, is your dad well?” RM immediately replied that his father has been really into skiing lately. After that, j-hope turned to V and asked, “Taehyung, is your dad well?” prompting RM to excitedly comment that Taehyung’s dad and Hoseok’s dad are both “fashionistas.” V then revealed that his father has recently become a true “homebody,” almost preferring to stay at home all the time because it feels too comfortable. RM seemed especially curious, continuously asking questions like, “Does he not go outside?” and “Then what does he do at home?”

Noticing RM’s unusual interest in the topic of “dads” — or perhaps simply because the BTS leader’s appearance triggered j-hope’s teasing instincts toward his same-age friend. As RM was cleaning up the savory food before moving on to dessert, j-hope leaned close to the camera and loudly shouted a fan's comment, “Daddy Namjoon!” Even V, who was standing nearby cleaning up leftovers, burst into laughter at the teasing.

Meanwhile, RM — still busy tidying up — hurriedly protested toward the camera while working, saying, “I’m still unmarried.” He then continued insisting, “Why you asking me that? Nani?” which only made both the members and fans giggle even more.

Not stopping there, V added to the chaos by bringing up a famous internet meme. The idol joked, “Ah you know that? ‘Do you have a girlfriend? Different nation! What’s a different nation? Imagination!’” causing the members to burst into laughter once again.

j-hope also showed off how quickly he keeps up with social media trends by singing along to a recently viral sound: “Please give me boyfriend, Namjoon juseyo.” However, RM seemed to misunderstand the reference. Although he knew the “juseyo” trend, he apparently had not caught up with the version where ARMYs insert members’ names after “please" phrase. As a result, he corrected j-hope by saying it should be “namchin” (кσяєαn word for “boyfriend”) and confidently sang what he believed was the correct version: “Please give me boyfriend, namchin juseyo.”

The members’ spontaneous and hilarious interactions from today’s livestream are now rapidly spreading across social media, drawing amused reactions from fans all around the world, including:

- j-hope was all right, Namjoon-ah. It is Namjoon juseyo cause we dont want boyfriend we want Kim Namjoon Daddy

- Before, Yoongi marry me and now daddy Namjoon, Hobi's so unserious

- Oh my God Namjoon you know what they mean. Daddy Namjoon is the new yoongi marry me

- RM fιgнтing for his life trying to explain he’s unmarried while the members keep calling him Daddy Namjoon is peak BTS chaos.

- The way Namjoon immediately yelled ‘I’m still unmarried!’ had me crying. Bro sounded genuinely concerned like after senconds K-media spreads this rumor

- Hoseok teasing Namjoon every five seconds while Taehyung keeps adding memes in the background 

- RM correcting the trend to ‘namchin juseyo’ instead of understanding the joke is the most Namjoon thing ever.

- Mind you, he could have just ignored the comment but did it for funsies. Oh Hobi

- Why does Namjoon always give us clarification that he is unmarried? Now I want someone to tell Namjoon that him being Daddy is nothing to do with his marriage. Prolly Jk could do this for us
