During his Instagram live, he mentions that the BTS concert was one of the best concerts he’s ever seen in his life. That says a lot since he’s been to a lot of concerts in his lifetime and though he was familiar with some of the songs, he didn’t actually fully know any song. Yet he still managed to enjoy the concert.
