BTS’s RM refuses to apologise after being accused of being Islamophobic: ‘A word is a word’

Instead of an apology, RM said, “Okay guys I know what you are talking about. You just keep telling me that I insulted a religion but I didn’t. There was no intention or like purpose to insult a religion. I respect every belief and every religion that’s all I could say. So please don’t. I know what’s going on in my Instagram, I can see. But I never…there was no such any purpose or at least one percent of my heart or intention to insult a religion okay? Guys, it’s a song, okay? I am not apologising, I am just saying.”

BTS enjoys a huge fan-base which is often called as the BTS Army. RM requested the BTS Army to trust him.

In the same video, he said, “I have my own soul. I am 30 years old. I can express my truth. Please a word is a word, believe my words, not just guessing, pretending and assuming, okay? I know I can’t, I know my limits, even if I am telling my truth, I know I can’t convince and persuade every people.”

He added, “Maybe some people would think of me like, ‘Oh no you still lie. You had that intention and purpose to insult’, which I didn’t, I never. Guys, I understand what you are saying but I just can’t lie to you. I am just being honest.”
