While fans missed BTS a lot while they were on a much-deserved vacation, ARMYs now have plenty of opportunities to catch up with RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, V, Jimin and Jungkook. The members, recently, shared their current favorites in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
BTS members joined the Fishing for Answers challenge before embarking on a photoshoot for the magazine's cover and updated their ARMY on what currently inspires them when it comes to music. When it comes to their favorites, J-Hope predictably chose a hip hop song - Chance the Rapper's The Big Day. Suga picked Mustard's Loco while V picked Floor Seats.
The ever-loyal golden maknae Jungkook said that his favorite jam these days was BTS' own Mikrokosmos. RM chose Panini while Jin picked Shawn Mendes and Camilla Cabello's Señorita. Jimin said that his current faves are songs by Lil Nas.
Things turned quite tricky as the questions required more English and the most fluent member RM, used it as an opportunity to tease Jimin a lot. Jimin, who is used to charming his way out of having to speak a lot of English, used finger hearts, and love you as fillers. Still, he tried his best to convey his answers as much as he can.
Jimin shared that the best interactions were for him connecting with the fans while they were on stage. RM picked their opportunity to collaborate with other artists like Halsey as his favorite interactions. This led then straight to the next question that fans wanted to hear the answer to.
For their dream collaborations, J-Hope picked Drake, which was echoed by the rest of the BTS members who invited the rapper to visit Korea and work with them.
As for their musical influences, BTS members picked a majority of foreign rappers and performers like Eminem, Jay-Z, TI, Usher, Justin Timberlake, and Justin Bieber. It was only Suga who picked his father, which was pretty typical for the down-to-earth BTS member.
Collaborations seem to be working well for BTS after they picked up another nomination at the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs) for Boy with Luv, their collab project with Halsey. More than that, the catchy tune has set a new Spotify record for being the most streamed song on the platform.
Based on a report by Soompi, Boy with Luv surpassed 285 million streams on the music service making it "the most-streamed song on Spotify by a K-Pop act." With the feat, BTS dethroned BLACKPINK who previously held the record for Kiss and Make Up, which is their own collaboration with Dua Lipa.
