BTS’ leader RM aka Kim Namjoon is infamous for calling out trolls, dishing up sarcasm to their face. From talking to TV host James Corden about his comment about fans that got him in some ‘hot water’ with ARMYs to slamming international media reports claiming fans of BTS were ‘bots’ by flexing the numbers for BTS’ ‘PTD on Stage - LA’ SoFi Stadium concerts, RM always calls out antis out when needed. BTS' second Grammy snub had a lot of mouths chattering about BTS’ "failure".

Despite having sold-out shows and the success that BTS has had over the years, haters continue to troll BTS, which is why their leader, RM politely told fans to 'let them hate' while ARMYs continue to love the boy group. ‘Permission to Dance on Stage - Las Vegas’ has officially kicked off with its first show which took place on April 8. While there are three more concert days left, RM did not hold back when he blatantly attacked antis that had been trolling BTS over the last week.

RM peacefully claps back at trolls

Since their Grammy snub, there have been a lot of comments directed towards BTS. From joking about how the group did not win a Grammy Award to racist comments. Not only that but, BTS also saw a lot of unnecessary comments directed toward their 2022 Grammy performance where trolls called it a ‘bathroom break’ among other hate comments from producer Mike Dean and others. Despite the hate, we know that BTS is thriving and RM’s reaction to these trolls is proof of why BTS will always be the bigger person when it comes to their haters.

In his speech to fans on the first day of BTS’ ‘PTD on Stage’ concert at Allegiant Stadium, Namjoon did not hold back as he said, “I know there’s a lot of noise out there about Grammys. Why give a s**t about it?” He continued to tell fans that hating on BTS is the only freedom and right antis have which does not amount to much. RM told fans that trolls may not have real friends to vent to which is why they blabber on Twitter as he said, “I’d rather just talk with my friends in some cafe and forget about it rather than tweeting about it,” he added, “I wouldn’t do that, cause I’m a grown-up.”

'We didn’t come to Vegas for the Grammys'

RM told fans that they are BTS’ priority and the boy group had no plans of coming to Vegas to win a Grammy. RM said, “Anyways, we didn’t come to Vegas for the Grammys, we came to focus on the ARMYs!” He clarified, “The records, the titles, accomplishments, the trophies, they’re really important but that wasn’t our first priority.” He told fans that spending two hours per show with fans, communicating with them, seeing their energy face-to-face, and singing and dancing with fans is everything that BTS needs. He concluded, “This is why we’re doing this right? I love you!” Giving fans such a powerful pep talk, Namjoon finally concluded with, “Let the haters hate, let the lovers love.”



 

'His words are like a warm hug'

Fans are glad that Namjoon is aware of what is happening online and yet, publicly defended ARMYs at the concert. One fan said, "He saw everything what happen in this mf twitter . HE KNOWS HE SEES HE KEEP IT AND SMASH IT DOWNx i love him so much." One fan quoted, "Let the haters hate. let the lovers love"- kim namjoon." One fan joked, "That’s literally the meme."

One fan said, "Namjoon knows everything. LITERALLY EVERYTHING." Another fan said, "Namjoon knows he knows. MY MANNNN I KNOW I CAN TRUST YOUUUUUUUU." One fan said, "Namjoon really told us to protect our peace no matter what haters say about BTS and ARMY. He knows people will drag BTS, drag ARMY, paint us in a bad light, falsely accuse us...and he just wants us to protect our peace. His words are like a warm hug every single time."
