In a recent interview, RM shared some screengrabs of his Instagram DMs, touching fans’ hearts with his gesture.

The DMs in question were exchanged between RM and his fellow artist Paul Blanco. Blanco is a Korean R&B artist who has won massive praise from ARMYs with his smooth vocals on “Closer” with RM and Mahalia. The BTS member has repeatedly shown his deep appreciation for him, even calling him the “biggest yungin” in Korea in a thank you note he sent after Indigo‘s release.

In a previous interview, RM had shared that he reached out to him through Instagram and shared the song at around 4 am. Blanco got back to him with his recording by 12 pm the next day. Surprised by how fast he sent in his parts, RM asked him if he never sleeps, to which the witty singer replied, “Hyungnim, sleep is for the rich people!”

Though sharing such behind stories of his projects is not new for RM, he took ARMYs aback by his next-level openness when he shared screenshots of his DMs with Blanco in a recent interview:

"- RM: Hello Blanco-nim.

- RM: I’m currently preparing my album…There’s a song I’d like you to hop onto with me. If you’d like to be on it, could you give me your contact details?

- Paul Blanco: Ha…I’d like that a lot, hyung. It’s 010-[rest blurred out]. Please feel free to contact me whenever. I ride for you bro 

- RM: Thank you ! I’m in the midst of sorting out my demo and I think I’ll be dobe by tomorrow. I’ll rearrange the track a bit and contact you after!

- Paul Blanco: No, I’m the one who’s really thankful!! I’ll work hard. Please take your time to send it.

- RM: Blanco-nim I’m sorry, my throat condition isn’t good right now. So, I think it’ll take me a few days to rearrange the track. I’ll send you a message once it’s done!

- Paul Blanco: Don’t worry, health comes first bro! Take your time to send it, it’s alright don’t worry!"

ARMYs were touched when RM felt comfortable enough to share the entire conversation with them, even if he didn't have to. There are very few celebrities who feel open to posting these things but RM very often does.

Not only sharing Instagram messages with his colleagues, RM also shared a text message he and his mother texted together on Kakaotalk and it shows how lovely the interaction is between the two. RM also didn't hesitate to show ARMYs how he and his mother love each other. This makes ARMYs feel closer to his life.

In addition, RM is also the member who updates the news in his daily life on Instagram the most. Those are just moments where he's enjoying life but it's reassuring to see him living his own life as well.

Returning to the text message between RM and Blanco, ARMYs couldn't help but appreciate the dynamic combination of the new song and the great interaction between the artists and real-life friends.
