Well jk was barely in school for one. Also, Rm is nowhere near fluent in my opinion. English is very different than Korean. It must be hard to learn. Some words are tongue twisters even for a native speaker. Also, if you think about it, Jkay already had to get rid of his Busan dialect and learn how to speak in a clear Seoul accent. I don't see what the big deal is or the point of your posts.

@Beautiful I could tell immediately by your numerous grammatical mistakes that English is not your first language, so I'm surprised you are bringing up jk having a difficult time singing "tangled." Both of y'all need to stop being petty.
Jk can barely do basic math or read and write. His school was in name only. The administration was focused on forcing kids to work for free at events, sometimes in Japan. I feel bad for him because he needs to be able to count his own money, and write more than his name on a contract. Rm has shaded him for it before, but it's not his fault.

Because he needs the English language in his work and he has fans from all over the world and he will have to speak it if he wants to promote his work in America and the world and communicate with fans better than always using translation and he has an English teacher and this is 10 years in the music indestry now So I found it strange how he hasn't learned it yet, and the problem is not in pronunciation, even Arabs and Indians have completely different pronunciations, but they are learning other languages, and I didn't insult him because he doesn't speak another language, And I didn't talk about his pronunciation of that word and I didn't comment on it, just her comment reminded me that he doesn't know how to speak English Because he said it in that video and I wondered about that so
I was just joking because I didn't understand why and I found it strange how he didn't learn it yet ,even though it was surrounded by him for so long 10 years and he needs it in his work And he himself said he needed it
and you could just have responded with more respect Instead of calling me a petty for this

I don’t know why you exaggerated and took this to such a degree because even when I joking I didn't say ignorant about him or meant something like that, I just said that I meant that he is not interested in learning to a great extent, I may spend years learning a language and my friend will come and say I didn’t understand how didn’t You learn it for now, it seems that you want the translator to stay with you because he's handsome and I will laugh because I don't find this joke very rude And this may vary from person to person, but this is how I am
and my intention is not bad because as you said I also make mistakes in the language and I am still learning it so why would I make fun of someone else for this, you made me feel like I said a big rude word on him
But still There is a difference between our personalities and if this was really offensive from your perspective, I apologize to you and to everyone here who found my words offensive even though i did mean nothing

Honestly, it's pretty sad. A lot of life experiences and education is taken from these idols that start so young. I recall jkay in a live saying his lack of knowledge and schooling is something he feels most insecure about. Also, there was a clip where rm asked jk a simple math equation and he couldn't solve it. Also, here with jhpe..

Yes eng is not my first language. Well I just posted here what i saw. I know he didn't have time to got to high school or university. But i observed that they are fluent in English. Those many years in behind the scenes also u can see them being good in eng. Didn't he sing or cover English song. I didn't point out or say something gross or bad about him. I said he struggled to say that word. I didn't even say he sucks at English or anything. But you can say it nicely instead of being rude. If u got hurt iam sorry

He said he didn't work hard at school. I think he was just a lazy kid. Many idols are actually pretty good at math and science. Jm is his bandmate and he was known as a model student at his school

I’m curious. What is a Seoul accent? I am not a native Korean, so I don’t know the Busan vs the Seoul accent.

All of btss are good at math except for jkay

Also they can have intelligent conversations whereas jkay cant,like with that Indian interviewer
She asked all of them really good questions and everyone answered pretty well and got their point across but jkay basically said a whole bunch of nothing
And she only flirted with Vee so the other five answered deep questions

I would imagine the Seoul dialect is comparable to the mid-atlantic (standard American) accent actors and news casters adopt in the states...each word is enunciated clearly and can be understood by any English speaker. While a Busan dialect would be comparable to an American southern accent.. (More country with distinct tones.)

Teen idols miss out on the normal experiences and growth someone their age has. He's emotionally and mentally stunted. Some idols are physically stunted because of malnutrition. He can't solve a basic math problem. Math is something we use everyday.

He's still a child even though his body is adult. His mind was never able to mature because he was purposely stunted to fit Armys tastes.

I think Jimin spent time at a normal high school before training. He also had experience with juggling artistic schedules with schoolwork.

Jk would've been in middle school when he was training. There's other idols that trained during the summer and went to school abroad. Why didn't they focus on his education? One idol was completing homework at Isac. This could affect how he manages money and his business contracts. When you can't read or calculate your money, it's someone else's.

A fortune teller said the members astrology signs were complimentary and their group name helped with good fortune. He predicted health issues for Jimin, and Jungkook getting into trouble. This was a year ago.
