BTS RM and his knack for lyrical wordplay: Ddaeng, Cypher Pt 2 ... (The Indian Express)

Apart from powerful stage presence, rapping skills and leading one of the biggest boy-bands in the world, RM has another weapon in his arsenal---he wields ...

The first meaning is the literal meaning, which is sickness. It’s in the song Ddaeng when RM seems to have the most fun. So, if the ‘sharp edges’ of the rectangle are ‘eroded’, it becomes a circle—and so, person becomes love. One of the most profound instances—for a non-Korean person especially, is in his verse in Trivia: Love. If you catch him on the band’s variety shows Run BTS, In The Soop, he oscillates between being a paternal figure to six screaming kids, to being one of the screaming kids, wreaking havoc in the kitchen. The goofy, crab-lover doesn’t exist for those moments and the performer in him takes over, and sometimes he shows his power by just walking to the middle of the stage as he raps.

RM hits the hardest with his calm, soft and deadly verses, balancing the rap-line between Suga's anger and J-Hope's aggression. RM stares at you until you have ...

It is in the song Dadeng when RM enjoys the most. Without unnecessary details and in a subtle way, RM explains his views of love and its softening effect on a person. Therefore, if the ‘sharp edges’ of the rectangle are ‘dissected’, it becomes a circle – and therefore, the person becomes love. The goofy, crab-lover isn’t present for those moments and the artist in him takes over, and occasionally shows his power by walking down the middle of the stage as he raps. The lines read,I am just a person, person, person, you erase all my sharp edges, you make me in love, love, love…” He plays on the visual similarity of Korean letters in two words, person (sa-ram) and love (sa-rang). If you catch him in the band’s variety show Run BTS, The Soap, he goes from being a paternal figure to six screaming kids, to being one of the screaming kids, wreaking havoc in the kitchen.
