BTS’s RM made the decision to visit the Art Basel festival in 2022 to see their vivacious fair. He showed his admiration for the works of artists such as Yun Hyong-Keun, Alexander Calder, and others in a vlog that was published on June 30 on BTS’ YouTube account BANGTANTV.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, sometimes known as the MET, is a famous destination for BTS’ RM. Despite having a hectic itinerary in 2019, BTS was able to visit the art museum before his concert at the METLife Stadium. On the Twitter account of BTS, he even shared photos of himself at the MET.
While BTS was on their Love Yourself Speak Yourself stadium global tour, the BTS leader found time in his hectic schedule to visit the National Institution, which is the most renowned art gallery in London.
In a Vogue interview, RM from BTS claimed that he started going to art institutions and galleries while on tour because he was bored. But his regular trips to museums sparked his interest in art, particularly works by Korean artists. The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA), which has locations in Gwacheon, Deoksugung, Seoul, and Cheongju in South Korea, is a favorite destination for BTS’ RM.
