BTS member RM releases 'Right Place, Wrong Person'
“Right Place, Wrong Person embodies facets of RM as a solo artist, distinct from albums released under BTS,” label Big Hit said in a statement.
RM has become the latest BTS member to release an album.
On Thursday, the group took to Instagram to announce that RM has released a new album, 'Right Place, Wrong Person'.
The album is his second following 'Indigo', which he released in December 2022. The album went on to peak at No. 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200.

The new album is set to arrive on May 24.
It will reportedly have eleven songs.
According to a statement on Weverse, the new song by RM talks about "being an outsider who doesn’t fit in".
The album doesn't fall under a specific genre.
"The album falls within the alternative genre, boasting a rich sound coupled with frank, honest lyrics," reads the statement.
In March, BTS member Kim Tae-hyung, widely known by his stage name V, released a new song called, ‘Fri(end)s’. The song went on to become his highest-ranking solo single on Spotify’s Daily Top Songs Global Chart.

Last year, RM was accused of insulting the Islamic religion. This came after he shared Frank Ocean’s ‘Bad Religion’ song on his Instagram Story on August 16. The song contains the lyrics, 'Allahu Akbar', and has been slammed as an Islamophobic song.
RM took to Weverse to address the controversy. “You keep telling me that I insulted a religion, but I didn’t,” he said.
RM said he respects every religion and he had no intention of insulting any religion.
“There was no intention to insult a religion. I respect every belief and religion,” the rapper said.
“I know what’s going on Instagram. I can see, but there was no such purpose or at least one percent of my heart with the intention to insult a religion,” he added.
“I am 30 years old. I can express my true thoughts. […] Please believe my words from myself, not just guessing, pretending and assuming,” he added.
“I didn’t want to [talk] about this, but some people are making me [talk] about this,” RM said.
