ARMYs weren’t the only ones who were excited for BTS’s MAP OF THE SOUL ON:E online concert with many celebrities also anticipating the show.

Her tweets reveals that she watched not only day one but also day two of the concert, proving to be a huge fan of the group.

She also pointed out that RM‘s ending speech at the concert truly blew her away as he displayed signs of “incredible leadership in the face of uncertainty, frustration and hopelessness.”
I was fine for much of the concert since I saw it yesterday and knew what was going to happen. Until Namjoon's speech. That got me, in the head and in the heart. He displays incredible leadership in the face of uncertainty, frustration and hopelessness.

We totally understand her thoughts because after listening to both day one and day two of RM’s ending speeches, he truly hit us somewhere deep in our hearts and all we can do is continue to support them throughout this journey.
Day 1
Day 2
Watching the show also made her realize that she really missed performing and being on stage and hoped that things would settle down soon so that she could perform again.
You know what other part of Map of the Soul ON:E got me? Seeing the neon-colored spike marks on the floor as well as the numbers all the way downstage. That reminded me of how much I miss being on stage performing, trying to find my marks and aligning myself to a number. Sigh.

She even revealed who her bias (V) and bias wrecker (Suga) was, but truly felt attacked by RM during the concert (girl do we know how that feels).
Iba siya. My bias is V, and my bias wrecker/spirit animal is Suga, but my God. This man, Namjoon.
