It takes some real luck to compete with millions of ARMYs for a chance to attend BTS’ RM’s exclusive concert for Indigo. Only 200 fans were selected via a random draw, any sort of recording was strictly banned inside the venue, and camera lenses were covered with stickers at the start of the show.
It was also announced that the solo concert would be recorded for content, and until the video is released, there is no chance of knowing what happened at the Indigo concert.
However, thanks to some ARMYs, many now know that RM (aka Kim Nam-joon) prepared special gifts for them as souvenirs. These included things that screamed Namjoon (the leader’s real name), including a bookmark, fountain pen, and more.
Bookmark, fountain ink set, and more: BTS’ RM’s personalized gifts to 200 ARMYs make millions of others jealous
BTS’ RM released his solo album Indigo on December 2 and held a private concert on Monday, December 5, for a few hundred ARMYs. As per some fans who attended, collaborators such as Paul Blanco, Sawol Kim, Cho Yujeen, and more shared the stage with RM. However, making the event even more memorable was personalized souvenirs.
These gifts included an intricately detailed bookmark with a floral design, a fountain pen and ink set, and a handwritten letter. A black envelope with an ‘RM’ blue wax seal contained a postcard and a letter, in which the idol wrote:
“Thank you for coming all this way! Let’s have fun!”
The presents seemed to fit BTS’ RM, known for his poetic, literature-lover, and nature-lover personality. ARMYs who were the lucky recipients of these souvenirs rightfully flaunted them too.
While other ARMYs loved the gesture, they couldn’t help but feel envious of the 200 people who had the opportunity to be up close and personal with BTS’ RM. An enclosed space away from the cameras, collaborators joining the performance, and personal gifts only pointed towards a deeply insightful day and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Take a look at some of the fan reactions below:
Meanwhile, the Indigo concert setlist includes Sexy Nukim, Yun, Still Life, All day, Closer (with Paul Blanco), Wild Flower (with Youjeen), and Hectic (with colde), among other songs.
