What did you want to do the most?” RM replied, “I want to get a baby perm.” When a person said they “wanted a boyfriend who reacts as fast as Kim Namjoon,” he replied, “Being as fast as me is impressive.”
Another person said, as translated by @mhereonlyforbts, “When you get out of the army, please talk about the 24 hour military days.” He replied, “There’s so much to say though. I wonder how much I can say.” When asked what made him happy lately, he said, “It (military service) is more than 50%.”
