The Grammys were hosted by comedian Trevor Noah, who called dibs on RM and won a nod from the ARMY. Speaking about his favoritism for BTS leader Kim Namjoon aka RM, Trevor said, “And before we fight, I call dibs on RM. You guys can fight over everybody else.”

However, fans of BTS criticsed the host for making a reference to the ‘Squid Game’ during his interaction with the septet. During a chat with BTS, Noah asked RM if he actually learnt English by watching the sitcom ‘Friends’. Namjoon confirmed the same, while tagging himself as Chandler. Later on Noah showed off his Korean language skills by singing a song from ‘Squid Game’, which featured in the popular show’s deadly game Red Light, Green Light. The ARMY did not appreciate Trevor Noah speaking about a Korean show while speaking to the Korean band.
