Even global superstars sometimes enjoy life’s simple, humbling moments — and BTS’s RM is no exception. Recently, fans were treated to a laugh when BTS leader RM, currently enjoying his post-military service return to daily life, found himself in a taxi that was playing BTS’s hit song, “Spring Day.” Many, many years later after its launch, it is rare to find a radio station that plays the song. Although it climbs back up the charts in spring, it is currently in the middle of a searing hot summer.
According to the video RM posted, the rapper quietly chuckled when the familiar chorus began playing. Seemingly unbothered by the fact that his own voice was echoing from the speakers, RM cleared his throat and sang along with gusto and pride. The wholesome moment took an unexpectedly funny turn. Just as RM was mid-verse, the taxi driver, completely unaware that the man in his backseat was the RM of BTS abruptly interrupted. The taxi driver proceeded to do his job, asking if he should drop RM up ahead, completely cutting RM off.
Caught off guard, RM stopped singing immediately and sheepishly answered affirmatively. Fans found the incident both hilarious and heartwarming, praising RM’s sense of humor in uploading the moment. The moment also reminded ARMYs of how RM, known for his reflective personality and love of solo walks or bike rides, often chooses low-key ways to navigate the city.
Online, reactions poured in, with fans giggling at how such things only seem to happen to RM.

You get into a cab, and your own song is playing so you openly sing along, but the taxi driver just asks if he should drop you off there. F*ck, why do such things only happen to our RM?

Others took delight in how things never seem to work out for RM.
아잠만너무 웃겨
알엠 자기 노래 나와서 부랴부랴 동영상 띠롱 틀고
본격적으로 노래 함 불러보려다가 대차게 실패함
웃수저모먼트 미치겟다 https://t.co/txZeWUoJyq— 민운 (@agustd_030) June 29, 2025
Wait, this is too funny. RM got his phone out, ready to take a video because his own song was playing and was about to sing wholeheartedly, but it failed greatly. His comedic moments are really insane.

Whether or not the driver ever realized who his passenger was remains a mystery. But for fans, the story is just another reminder of RM’s down-to-earth charm.
