in seoul namjoon says "if love and hate are the same words, i love you seoul, i hate you seoul" with this he's telling us that love and hate are two sides of the same coin, both of them are strong feelings you have towards someone you care for, you can't hate someone you don't-

love, because to hate is to draw attention, and you would only ever want attention from someone you love, make them see that they have hurt you, so through this line hes expressing how strongly connected he feels to this city, a city that hurt him but at the-

same time gave him all of his happy memories and moments, and had him meet people he now cares for more than anything in the world. i think seoul is one of the most poetic songs in the world. #MindOfRM @BTS_twt

i was so scared of doing seoul because it's my comfort song and i really wanted to do it justice,,, this one line took two hours to decipher like i kept listening to it last night and made atleast 20 drafts
