Fans believe RM is subtly responding to HYBE and ADOR’s feud.
ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin held a press conference on April 25, 2024, to address her current feud with HYBE. During the press conference, she claimed that HYBE founder and chairman Bang Si Hyuk (also known as Hitman Bang or Bang PD) initially didn’t want to debut girl groups under the company due to “jealous ARMYs.”
Remember how Namjoon defended us against James Corden when he disrespected us by calling armys "bunch of 15 year old girls", now imagine how he would react when he sees Bang PD calling us jealous fangirls?!?!?
Namjoon made James apologize because he called ARMYs “15 years old girls” now Bang PD called us “jealous female fans” OH BANG SIHYUK, IT'S OVER FOR YOU!!!!! pic.twitter.com/9CuYblzzJF
Additionally, HYBE has exposed Min Hee Jin for consulting shamans concerning her work. A reported conversation between her and a shaman included her saying, “I think I’ll stand to gain if they’re not here,” concerning BTS‘s military enlistment.
Min Hee Jin: Will BTS go to the army or not?
Shaman: They will.
Min Hee Jin: Well, it’s better for me if BTS to goes to the army. Send them off LOL. What do you think?
Shaman: I’m going to send them to the army. It’s not like they got gold medals or something.
Min Hee Jin: I think I’ll stand to gain if they’re not here.
Naturally, ARMYs are upset following both HYBE’s report and Min Hee Jin’s press conference. Some have even joked that BTS leader RM should return to take over the company.
Amidst the ongoing Min Hee Jin vs. HYBE feud, RM has taken to Instagram to update both of his individual accounts. ARMYs felt a sense of reassurance amidst the chaos.
Yet, some are speculating his latest Instagram Story update via @rkive might even be a subtle response to the current drama.
RM
RM, who is known for recommending songs via social media, shared “Give Me Water” by Korean folk rock singer-songwriter Hahn Dae Soo. He posted following Min Hee Jin’s press conference.
He is considered South Korea’s ‘master of folk rock’ and a pioneer of 1960s Korean hippie culture.

Based also on the song’s lyrics and even the cover art, ARMYs can’t help but speculate. Some theorize that RM might have posted it today due to the various accusations floating around.
🎶 @BTS_twt Namjoon shared 1974 “물 좀 주소 [Pass Me the Water]” from Han Dae-soo
The song is abt “a man crying in the dehydrated pain of a hangover for a glass of water… the album cover… he’s grabbing his face close up, in despair & disgust.”
The meaning of the song that Namjoon was listening 😭
"Given the oppressive atmosphere of Korean society at the time. It must have been a cry of wanting to be free from the shackles of the times, and what youngster wouldn't sometimes dream of such things at one point or another" pic.twitter.com/SMCIs8OYl1
