As previously known, RM recently visited the Art Basel museum in Switzerland. He spent a lot of interesting time and studying the works of art.
Besides, he also records an episode of his podcast here. In it, RM shared many interesting things related to BTS's new chapter.
RM recently posted on his personal Instagram a post announcing that he joined @artbasel to record an episode of their podcast. RM's podcast has received a lot of attention for the meaningful things he shared.
RM talked about how he spent his teenage years and is now turning 30. His active years as a rapper and idol left him with many precious memories.
Not only that, in a segment of the podcast, RM also shared about his feelings before turning 30 as well as the new journey of an idol. He also reveals a bit of regret because time flies and he doesn't want the music he makes to disappear with it.
RM shared that being an idol at the age of 29 and turning 30 is different. Specifically, he mentioned that: "I felt like 'ok is this my primetime? is this my highlight of my whole life?' because i'm 29 and i could live maybe like 100 years old and that's very sad if is my primetime because I just want to make it long"
He added: "I'm 29 in Korea so when we turn into 30s it's a different thing. It's still young , i'm still just a young man. But in a world of boyband, turning into 30s it's something different in Kpop. That's really sad but it's a fact "
We all know that Kpop idols are usually very young, 16-17 years old or even younger. The age before 30 years old is said to be the time when they are the youngest and most beautiful, suitable for idols.
However, from the age of 30 onwards, there are not many idols who can keep their outstanding popularity. Part of that is because many idols are in their primetime, but when they turn 30, they start enlist. And the other part of that is the harsh change of the Kpop world.
He also revealed that he regrets it, but what he wants to do is create immortal music. He thinks this wish is too early but it will be the driving force for him in his 30s and 40s.
RM said in the podcast: "I just want to make music like the timeless piece that I admire. And I know is funny to say about the timeless or long long term impact because i'm too young to chase the lifetime thing . But i think it would really help me in my 30s or 40s"
What RM shared seems to be more than just expressing his thoughts. It also shows RM's vision of his own growth and future direction. He really is a great thinker!
