Uncover key developments on Here's Why You Won't Catch K-Pop Boy Band Bts Singing a Full Song in English with our comprehensive overview.

The South Korean-native explained during an interview with Ellen Degeneres that he learned English through watching the hit TV show Friends. Can we ask for a video of RM just saying iconic Friends catchphrases? "We were on a break!" ... anyone?

“My English teacher was the sitcom Friends,” he shared. “Back in the days when I was 15 or 14, it was quite a syndrome for all the Korean parents to make their kids watch Friends. I thought I was kinda a victim at the time, but right now I’m the lucky one.” He added, “Thanks to my mother, she bought all of the seasons of DVDs… so firstly I watched with the Korean subtitle, next time with the English subtitle, then I just removed it.” 

BTS continues to make strides in the music industry and recently became the first-ever Korean musical guests on the infamous Saturday Night Live. 

Now, they’re gearing up to perform their latest single “Boy With Luv,” featuring pop singer Halsey at the 2019 Billboard Music Awards on May 1. The K-pop band has also been nominated for two BBMAs: Top Duo/Group and Top Social Artist. 

Well, we certainly can't wait to watch our favorite boy band's live performance.
