Maybe a little more reading comprehension and less blind rage lol

 

Here is the full speech translated by Soompi

 

Three years ago, we said that we wanted to win the Best Concert award. First off, I have to definitely thank ARMY who made it so that we even won the Daesang as well. We really didn’t know that we’d win, but I thought a bit about what to say just in case we did.â€

 

“This cultural award ceremony feels fresh and new to me,†he said. “There are many professionals from the culture industry here. This makes me think of a quote by Kim Gu, who said ‘The only thing that I desire is the power of an advanced culture.'†Kim Gu was a leader of the Korean independence movement during the colonial period and later an activist who called for the reunification of Korea.

 

RM explained, “I think that culture is the strongest intangible power, more so than any physical power, and it has the ability to break down all barriers. I’m a fan and a consumer of not only music, the field that I work in, but also traditional music, musicals, drama, plays, dance, and more. I believe that this culture is alive by my side and that while enjoying this culture, a human becomes more human. Also, it is a great source of inspiration for my music, and I think of it as having the power to make a human really human.â€

 

He continued, “We may be the only ones here on this honorable stage, but I hope you’ll remember that in the space around us there is not only us as the artists but also the many staff members who help us, and most importantly, all our fans and the consumers who love and consume this culture. We’re here among such amazing professionals from the culture industry, and I’m not sure if we deserve to be receiving this award. However, we’ll take this as a message to try harder and spread the power of Korea’s culture around the world. We’ll be humbler and work hard. Thank you.â€

Is he saying Korea doesn’t already have culture? Is that why BTS is advancing into the west, so that they can bring white culture back to Korea?
