RM, leader of the group BTS, will deliver a keynote speech at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) event. According to the APEC event schedule, RM will speak on the second day of the APEC CEO Summit at 3 p.m. on the 29th at the Gyeongju Arts Center, with the theme "APEC Regional Cultural Creative Industry and the Soft Power of K-Culture."

APEC introduced RM as an "art enthusiast with creative energy," mentioning his musical approach. RM is known for writing profound lyrics inspired by various art forms. Additionally, through a flexible and philosophical approach to music, he expands the boundaries of creation through global collaboration.

This is the first time a K-pop artist will speak at an APEC event. RM has already proven his eloquence and global influence through speeches at the United Nations. He has taken the UN stage three times—in 2018, 2020, and 2021—representing the voice of the youth generation and promoting the social value and positive influence of BTS and K-pop worldwide.

At this APEC event, RM is expected to emphasize the creativity and scalability of K-Culture and the importance of cultural exchange. It has been a while since RM has appeared as a speaker at an official international conference following his UN appearances, making this an opportunity to spotlight the influence of K-Culture and BTS's message on the global stage once again.

Meanwhile, HYBE, the parent company of BTS's agency Big Hit Music, is participating as an official sponsor of the APEC CEO Summit. HYBE is listed as a Diamond-level sponsor, the highest tier among sponsors. The APEC CEO Summit is an important platform for discussing economic and cultural cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region, and RM's keynote speech is expected to attract significant attention at this event.

RM's keynote speech will serve as an important opportunity to discuss the global influence of K-Culture and the future of Korean culture. BTS has led the worldwide popularity of K-pop and contributed to the spread of Korean culture. Through this speech, RM is expected to further expand the soft power of K-Culture.

The APEC CEO Summit is a gathering of business leaders from the Asia-Pacific region to discuss economic cooperation strategies. RM's participation will contribute to strengthening the connection between K-Culture and economic cooperation. APEC expects RM's speech to leave a strong impression on attendees.

BTS focuses not only on music but also on delivering social messages. RM represents this philosophy of BTS and will use this APEC speech to share their vision with the world. At a time when the development of K-Culture and the importance of global cooperation are emphasized, RM's keynote speech holds even greater significance.

As a Diamond-level sponsor of the APEC CEO Summit, HYBE will continue various activities to promote the global spread of K-Culture. HYBE supports the activities of K-pop artists and continues efforts to globalize Korean culture. RM's keynote speech at the APEC CEO Summit is part of these efforts and will serve as an opportunity to further expand the potential of K-Culture.

RM's keynote speech at this APEC event will be recorded as an important moment to showcase the creativity and soft power of K-Culture to the world. BTS, as a representative of K-pop, contributes to promoting Korean culture globally, and RM's speech will be part of this ongoing effort. The role RM plays in conveying the future of K-Culture and BTS's message to the world is highly anticipated.
