Monsta x and bts are friends. A couple of them go back to predebut days. Mx don’t seem to mind the occasional question about their friends who they like and respect.
The Monsta X & BTS relationship is unique in that there is a lot of overlap with their fans. Monsta X is THE #1 band that armies recommend the most in bts fan forums, since MonstaX and early BTS songs share the same musical style/genre preferences.
