Famed South Korean boyband BTS enjoys a massive fan following across the globe. The band has surely taken the world by storm with their chart-busting and foot-tapping songs. While the K-Pop band's fans - ARMY- never fail to praise and hype them, they also support BTS members' individual careers and choices. Recently, ARMY flooded some museums in the US that the band's leader RM had visited.

Ever since BTS members made their Instagram debut last year, each of them had garnered a massive follower base. BTS' leader RM has over 35.7 million followers on Instagram on whom he seemingly has a great influence upon. Earlier last month, the K-Pop band visited the White House to talk about the recent spike in anti-Asian hate crimes in the US with President Joe Biden. During their visit to the US, the band members went to explore the country and also took out time to meet their friends there. As RM is a huge art buff, he also paid a visit to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. 

Taking to his Instagram handle, the K-Pop star shared a series of photos of the exhibit by the Canadian-American painter Phillip Guston. The post had a series of artwork by the celebrated painter and also some snaps of RM himself.

Sharing the post, he wrote, "2 Boston 4 Guston ..from Washington." RM's post was not only liked by hundreds of thousands of his fans, but also made them eager to rush to visit the museum.
