BTS' rapper and leader RM (pic) addressed the issue of Islamophobia building up around him, denying any intention to insult the religion and stating he has no reasons to apologise.

The controversy was sparked in August, when RM shared American singer Frank Ocean's Bad Religion on his Instagram story. The 2012 song talks about loving without the restraint of religion, but some parts were interpreted by listeners as Islamophobic.
