In 2019, the group's only fluent English speaker and “de facto leader” RM told Entertainment Weekly that BTS had consciously prioritized sticking to Korean over singing in English, despite English offering easier access to a number of accolades they aspired to. That was, of course, before the pandemic.
Who speaks best English in BTS?
Only RM can speak English fluently
He is the only person in the group that is fluent in English. He revealed that his English skills have mostly been self-taught and he learned a lot from watching Friends. When he was 12 years old, he also studied in New Zealand for four months.
What language does BTS speak?
Korean fluently, obviously. A lot of the members can speak Japanese very well and they have released exclusively Japanese albums. Jin and J-Hope can speak good Chinese and RM can speak English.
