This might be a controversial opinion but I think rm's English and leadership was a lot better years ago. I never thought he was a good leader or spokesman for the group, but he's gotten worse. This was his ending speech at the concert...Competing with the "more established Western artists" is realistically a tough one... It would be practical for them to improve also on their English songs and speech... sheer size of fandom is not enough...
I could barely understand or keep up with what he was saying. I think he stopped studying English and it shows. He's also trying way too hard to be cool and it's messing with his pronunciation. When he said that awkward "g0dd@mn" I cringed.
The other members are sounding better than him these days. Jk's pronunciation here was excellent. I've said before he speaks the best.
I just don't know how much he really knows and understands since everything's scripted. I also noticed even t*e's pronunciation has improved greatly. Jhpe as well.
BUT it's not enough! Their company failed them by not giving them language and vocal coaches early on. Even SM artists get that. Rm honestly makes them look arrogant and desperate. Not a good look. I don't think they will win a Grammy. Their music is trash now.
