In the released video, BTS took the opportunity to talk about the message behind their 'Love Myself' campaign, which was launched in 2017. The members also talked more privately about how much impact the campaign will have on their own personal lives.
"I have to start by loving myself more and always keeping self-love at the forefront of my mind. It helps me to understand how precious the people around me are," said Jin.
In the interview, BTS' Jimin spoke honestly about the differences he saw in himself before and after the campaign started. He initially thought the campaign was for those around them but quickly saw the change taking place in him.
"Before the campaign, I just thought that I would rather see genuine joy than a forced smile or tears. Now, I ask myself if my smile is sincere too," he said.
V also mentioned how important the campaign is to his personal relationships, saying, "I realized how much love I received, and it made me love myself more and love others more."
More importantly, the members kept repeating the idea of self-love. J-Hope and Jungkook emphasized that the campaign has helped them reflect on themselves and learn to love who they are.
Jungkook concluded with a few words about his happiness when fans told them how positively the campaign had an impact on them. Even though Suga was not present, RM explained that he shared the same sentiments and wanted to repay his fans' love. (www.onkpop.com)
