RM explained the group's relationship with their fans, known as ARMY.

\"When we feel exhausted, when we hear the news all over the world, the tutoring programs, the donations, and every good thing, we feel responsible for all of this,\" he said. \"We've got to be greater; we've got to be better. All those behaviors always influence us to be better people, before all this music and artist stuff.\"

The group doesn't have time for dating, with RM telling Esquire their love life \"is with all the ARMYs all over the world.\"

Jung Kook chimed in, adding that \"the most important thing for us now is to sleep.\"
