Recently, on the Korean show The Dictionary of Useless Human Knowledge, RM was among the panel members involved in a discussion themed "What kind of human do we love?" He was an unmarried panelist, and his thoughts on marriage have resonated with the ARMY.
Here's what RM has to say about marriage
During the show, RM said, "People born in the 1990s are especially skeptical of marriage. Can something like that ever happen in my life? I thought of [marriage] as a natural process...but just a few years ago, I thought to myself, 'It's possible that I may end up not getting married.'" "Once I started thinking like that, I can't move on from that thought."
