BIBI Interacted With BTS’s RM At J-Hope’s Listening Party, Fans Hoping For A Collaboration Soon
On July 14, BTS‘s J-Hope threw a listening party for his then-unreleased solo album Jack In The Box. Almost all the notable names in the Korean entertainment industry turned up to support J-Hope, and ARMYs on Twitter were gasping for air with each new name confirmed on the guest list. Among these attendees were Korean Hip Hop legends Tiger JK and Yoon Mirae, accompanied by BIBI, the rising face of Korean RnB music.
Tiger JK posted a picture of the trio with BTS’s RM from the party, and eagle-eyed fans quickly noticed that BIBI had apparently gotten an autograph from the rapper.

Even though this is the first public face-to-face interaction between the two artists, BIBI has openly admitted to being a fan of RM on multiple occasions in the past. During an interview with Rolling Stone Korea, she mentioned that she would love to collaborate with him.

During a fan QnA session with Ask Anything Chat, BIBI again touched upon this dream collaboration and elaborated that if she gets to feature on a song with him, the genre or the type of music wouldn’t really matter to her.

Tiger JK, who accompanied BIBI during the Rolling Stone Korea interview, also revealed that RM was the first person to send a supportive message to BIBI when her song “Kazino” was released!
