namjoon is a fucking genius for portraying the standards that are pushed upon society, to have a wife and kids, to live in a polished house, the juxtaposition of his chill hang outs with his friends to the life he’s “supposed”to have pic.twitter.com/hDrg2DbhNh

During an appearance on the tvN variety show The Dictionary of Useless Human Knowledge, the rapper made a frank admission about his concerns regarding marriage before his enlistment.
In spite of societal norms, RM openly admitted to having uncertainties about the idea of permanent commitment, recognizing the influence of traditional expectations to adhere to societal standards.
First of all, it’s pretty scary for me… I’m not sure about it. To promise eternity to someone, officiate it, and bring your friends together… Before, the thought of, ‘Will that ever happen in my life?’ seemed natural to me. I figured that when the time came, I would get a job, work hard [in life], and get married.
– RM
RM continues to struggle with societal expectations and his own changing perspective, leaving him unsure about the role of marriage in his future.

Upon reflection of his nontraditional journey, RM recognized the unique path he has taken and came to the understanding that individual satisfaction cannot be influenced by outside expectations.
Marriage is a commitment, so it is not something to take lightly. It’s also not in everyone’s goals.No one should feel pressured to do anything just because others suggest it’s how one should live.Only we can know what is best for us
-RM
The “Come back to me”music video mirrors RM’s introspective journey in various aspects, highlighting the significance of staying true to oneself and embarking on a journey of self-discovery despite societal pressures.
