BTS’ V's witty birthday wish for leader RM earns hilarious reactions from ARMYs
BTS’ V's witty birthday wish for leader RM has earned hilarious reactions from ARMYs. For those unversed with the soup and fork reference, a month back, on August 12, BTS' leader held a 40-minute Weverse live stream for ARMYs.
The Indigo singer spoke about a bunch of topics, including the viral Bad Religion controversy, future album releases, and some inspiring advice for aspiring young fans.
One lucky ARMY asked RM if he had advice for a high school graduate, and Bangtan's frontman revealed:
"Advice for a high school graduate? Life is a soup and I’m a fork."
It quickly went viral among ARMYs, who lauded RM for his smart but creative piece of advice. Shortly after, BTS’ V hosted his own Weverse live, wherein he revealed he had quietly joined RM's live and was thoroughly impressed by his "Life is a soup and I'm a fork" quote.
ARMYs are elated to know the Slow Dancing singer used RM's quote to wish him on his birthday.
Additionally, ARMYs joked that they are glad the Rainy Days singer finally got the quote right. Back in the aforementioned Weverse live, he recalled the quote wrong, and despite his best efforts, he couldn't remember it correctly. After a point, BTS’ V gave up and concluded that whatever the quote was, it was another "wise saying" from RM.
