Is BTS's RM Married? Kim Namjoon Breaks Silence After Fans Saw USD 8000 Ring On His Finger

Birthdays for BTS members are never ordinary, and Kim Namjoon, better known as RM, proved it once again as he turned 31 on September 12. What began as a warm day of celebration within the fandom quickly turned into a viral storm when a single Instagram story sent ARMYs into speculation mode.

RM shared a picture with a ring on his fourth finger

RM shared snippets of his special day with his fans on his social media, but one picture stood out in particular. In it, the rapper wore an elegant ring on his fourth finger, also known as the ring finger, which immediately sparked online chatter in the fandom. The luxurious accessory wasn’t just any ring, it was the FRED Force 10 Rise Ring, an 18K white gold and diamond piece valued at nearly USD 8,000. Many fans began speculating and questioning if the leader was hinting towards a romantic relationship or a special someone.

RM addresses the rumours about the wedding ring

The excitement escalated to such an extent that RM decided to address it directly during a Weverse live session. He stated it was Jin who had gifted him the ring, and he even added that Jin had teased him, asking if it didn’t fit on any other finger. True to RM’s style, the clarification also came with a dose of humour and honesty, which fans appreciated. He could be quoted as saying:

“Jin hyung gave me this! The reason I’m wearing it on my 4th ring finger is because it only fits there. I’m not gonna married, I’m not married.”

Fans had their share of fun with the wedding ring speculations

Many fans were quick to connect the dots and had already figured out the ring was from Jin, as he is an ambassador for the French luxury jeweller FRED and was even tagged in the photo. However, they couldn't help but joke about RM’s new jewellery placement. Since the ring was on his wedding finger, hashtags like 'Namjin' (a blend of Namjoon and Jin’s names) and playful wedding theories began trending. Many ARMYs joked that RM had just ‘soft-launched’ his marriage, while others lightheartedly congratulated the duo on their ‘union’.

One fan wrote, “Yeah, you two look good together, be happy kids,” while another joked, “Namjin never beating marriage allegations.” A third one said," Breaking news, Kim Seokjin and Kim Namjoon are married." What could have been a simple birthday gift soon became an online talking point, with even the ring’s market value surging due to the online buzz. Originally priced at USD 7,670, its value was later listed at USD 8,400 after the spike in online searches.
