Sleepy revealed he was the one to connect BTS' RM to Big Hit Music.

Sleepy and RM are known to be friends, but according to Sleepy, he's also partially responsible for RM joining BTS. On the May 26th episode of 'Bezzang Entertainment', Sleepy responded to comments that he taught RM to rap, saying, "I never taught him. I saw RM rapping during his middle school days. I got his number and connected him to Big Hit Entertainment."

Sleepy also previously revealed he begged RM to feature in one of his tracks, but a year later, BTS' label declined the offer.

In other news, Sleepy recently established his own one-man agency and made a transition into trot music.

This is literally old news. I don't think Sleepy's using RM for clout but everytime he guests on those programs they always asks him about RM and I feel like it's not his fault but those hosts'. Jin said Sleepy is quite a nice guy and offered him financial help back then(which Sleepy most likely declined). I actually kinda feel bad for the guy TS Ent was such a shitty agency to him back then and now it sounds like he's still having lots of difficulties.
