Known to most of the world as RM, frontman of the K-pop mega-group BTS, Kim Namjoon shows another, more personal side in his latest creative endeavor as co-curator, alongside América Castillo and Hyoeun Kim, on the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art’s “RM x SFMOMA: Between You and Me.” In it, nearly 150 works from his personal art collection are featured in conversation with pieces from the museum’s permanent collection. “We wanted to do more than simply show RM’s collection. We wanted the two collections to speak to each other. So, as we brought them together, we looked for shared interests and questions among artists from different times and cultures,” Hyoeun Kim told Observer.

One slice of pizza remains and everyone is pretending not to want it. Can you take it?

Six friends have been circling the last slice of pizza for twenty minutes. Nobody claims it when you ask, yet two people keep glancing at the box. You are still hungry and paid the same share as everyone else.

Does politeness require leaving something that nobody will openly claim?
