RM is the official representative for BTS abroad. He's the only member who can speak English fluently. While the others understand and speak the language they sometimes can't master the finer points - so they mostly speak Korean. Their messages are translated by RM or by a professional.
But BTS fans are growing by the minute so the boys decided to work on their English to communicate with international ARMYs better. In fact, the lyrics to the group's latest hit "Dynamite" are in English.
Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook have been working hard to become as comfortable with the language as RM. Dubbed as the Golden Maknae, JK always excels at what he puts his mind to. So when it came to learning English it was no shock he took to it fast.
BTS has held several live interviews with iHeartRadio and in one of those events the boys were asked which of their songs had the hardest choreography. Instead of saying the title, V decided to sing a few lines from "Dionysus."
"Masyeo, masyeo, masyeo," V sang. Since they were in an international show, Jungkook felt the need to translate what V just sang. "Drinking, drinking, drinking," he said. (Watch here).
During another iHeartRadio interview, BTS was asked what ARMYs meant to them. Jimin chose to answer the question in Korean so he could fully express himself.
RM was listening because he knew he would be translating. But before he even got the chance to get his microphone Jungkook had taken over the translation. "I smile. You smile," the Golden Maknae said. The rest of the boys were clearly impressed. So was the audience. (Watch here).
BTS had said they felt bad for RM for constantly being bombarded with question after question in English. J-Hope couldn't take seeing his fellow 94-liner taking all the pressure and he had been very vocal of wanting to help the BTS leader during interviews.
J-Hope had been impressing ARMYs with how much his English has improved. He now doesn't only speak the language fluently in interviews but he understands questions without the need for RM's translations.
