Suga’s charm lies in his adorable "mouth cave" smile, habit of biting his lips, and playful expressions. Though his rap style is intense, his round features give him a soft and friendly look.

His pale complexion allows him to pull off various hair colors, earning him the nickname "Personal Color Destroyer". However, frequent bleaching has led to concerns about his scalp health.

His distinctive triangular eyes have led fans to compare him to Pokémon Metamon (Ditto) and Kakao Friends’ Apeach. His BT21 character, Shooky, was also designed based on his features.

RM

Basic Information

Kim Namjoon, born on September 12, 1994, is a South Korean artist from Ilsan, Gyeonggi Province.

He is 181 cm tall, has blood type A, and wears a shoe size of 280 mm.

He graduated from Global Cyber University.

Position: Leader

RM was the first BTS member to be introduced. After the departure of the Daenamhyup members, he naturally took on the role of leader. He played a crucial role in forming the team and, despite his young age, has shown maturity and eloquence, leaving many memorable quotes and touching acceptance speeches. His deep voice and charismatic presence in music videos sometimes make him appear older, but he also displays a playful and youthful side.

Particularly in American Hustle Life, RM revealed a pure and childlike personality that fans found endearing. This contrast in his character has made him both a reliable leader and an approachable figure.

Rap

RM started rapping under the influence of East Coast hip-hop artists such as Nas, Eminem, DMX, JAY-Z, Kanye West, and J. Cole. As BTS’s main rapper and musical core, he contributes significantly to shaping the message of their songs beyond just rapping assigned parts. While he excels in singing-rap and has decent vocal skills, his naturally weak throat and limited vocal range pose some challenges.

He is known for his exceptional lyricism, often incorporating philosophical themes and introspective thoughts into his writing. His use of metaphors, wordplay, and seamless blending of Korean and English in rhyme schemes sets him apart. His strengths lie in emotionally expressive rap with a deep, melodic tone, though some listeners have mixed opinions about his accent-based flow and diction.

Through mixtapes and collaborations, RM has consistently expressed his identity as a rapper, working with both domestic and international artists. Although he faced prejudice in the Korean hip-hop scene in the past, his musical growth has been widely recognized. He has received praise from critics and fellow rappers alike, playing a significant role in BTS’s global success.

RM excels in conveying emotions and controlling dynamics in his rap, adapting well to various beats. Although he does not play instruments, he writes lyrics based on key concepts and often finds inspiration in everyday moments, such as while on a bus, in the bath, or in bed (3B method). His continuous growth as an artist has solidified his skills in rap, songwriting, and emotional expression.

Visuals

RM has inner double eyelids that almost appear monolid, with long, horizontally shaped eyes. When he smiles, his crescent-shaped eyes and deep dimples create a warm and kind impression. Many say he looks even more striking in person, as his on-screen appearance can sometimes seem cold, whereas in reality, he gives off a masculine and charismatic aura.

His tall stature and model-like proportions make him stand out, and he effortlessly pulls off various hair colors and styles. At 181 cm, he is the tallest BTS member, and his long legs make him particularly noticeable in group photos.
