Although all the members have worked hard for their success, RM played a big role in the success of BTS because of the music he has created. Many people say that they began listening to BTS because of the lyrics of their music, which RM has written a lot of.

Throughout Namjoon’s career with BTS, he has created music to comfort people from the pressures they face.
