Leeteuk revealed that J-Hope had been trying to give him a signed copy of their latest “MAP OF THE SOUL: 7” CD but couldn’t find the time out of his hectic schedule.

J-Hope decided to leave a message instead to convey his apologies.

BTS’s J-Hope — Hobi — messaged me saying, ‘Hyung, I wanted to give you our signed CD, but just can’t seem to find the right time. I’m sorry.’ So I replied, ‘It’s okay. We’re really both so busy so how can we meet each other?’

Leeteuk revealed that J-Hope’s family always takes care of him, so he plans to gift them with a signed copy of his cookbook.

Actually, it was yesterday when I was heading down to the sauna. Even though I wear a hat and mask, everyone seems to know that it’s me. I met Hobi’s mom.

I greeted her, and she said, ‘Oh my, I was on my way to see you!’ She was on her way to give me the signed CD! She handed me the CD but she also took out another thing wrapped in paper, saying ‘And this is something that I wanted to give you.’

It was the thing that you stick on your face mask after you take it off. She’s always taking care of me, so I messaged her that I’ll gift her a signed copy of my cookbook.
