South Korea’s best-selling boyband, BTS, continue to make their mark in the art world. One of the group’s singers, known as RM, has been honoured by the state-run organisation Arts Council Korea, which gave the singer an “art sponsor of the year” award last month. RM was one of a number of individuals and companies honoured for “art patronage”.
According to the
Korea Herald, RM was recognised for donating 100 million won ($90,400) to the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul last September (the money was used to republish books that had gone out of print, which were then distributed to public libraries and schools). Arts Council Korea could not be reached for further comment.
