BTS leader RM also shared his experience during his trainee days. The "Dynamite" hitmaker said that period in their lives was every hard to go through. Aside from the rigorous and exhausting training, RM said one of the hardest part of it is dealing with other trainees, who came from places with different cultures.

RM, just like BTS Suga, also talked about being with nine to 10 people in one room. The "Boy with Luv" singer said everyone would share everything, including their clothes and computers, since their resources were limited at the time.

Despite all the predicaments, Suga and RM are thankful that they decided to endure the laborious and arduous process. After everything they have been through, they are grateful that BTS is now named as the biggest boy band in the world.
