MVP's Rayoon revealed that he used to dance for BTS.

The new boy group held a press conference for their debut mini album 'Manifest' on March 13. The members shared their excitement of finally making their debut and revealed, "We're really nervous. We only slept 3 hours last night."

They also talked about their role models and said, "Long running Shinhwa sunbaenim is our role model. We also really want to meet EXO sunbaenim and we frequently monitored BTOB sunbaenim. They do well on variety shows, drama, and on charts so we look after them a lot."

MVP continued, "We think Big Bang sunbaenim are at the top of the K-Pop industry."

Rayoon then shared an interesting fact, saying, "I used to work as a dancer before debut. I danced on stage with BTS sunbaenim. I've been on stage often but my family's all here today. I've never been this nervous. I'm really nervous right now."

MVP is having their debut stage on 'The Show' on March 14.

Lol he's not leeching off BTS, first of all. He barely mentioned them. But people gonna have problems with that too. And AKP why so thirsty for clicks?

I wouldn't be surprised if another guy comes out debuted and has danced as a backup dancer for BTS. There had been so many in the past dance crews😊💕

no, in korea it is referred to as a back dancer and since this is kpop, that is what we call it.

BakaKaori johnny • Wednesday, March 15, 2017

I know that that's what it's called in Korean, but since this is an English language website, they can use the English. Especially since the Korean word is based off of the English.

he looks up to Shinhwa, EXO and BtoB, but he didn't actually say anything positive about BTS lol

Marybis BBnaruto • Monday, March 13, 2017

It's not him (Rayoon) mentioned shinwaa, exo n btob, but his group. "They (MVP) also talked about their role models and said,,,". In another portal news (this is kinda old news actually. It's either Soompi or Koreaboo, already make this article month ago) Rayoon said he close with Jungkook when he used to be back up dancer. And when they meet again on backstage after he debut in MVP, Jungkook didnt changes at all (still treat him like a close friend even they are not meet for a long time) n give a support with praised him because he now become a celeb.

I think you may be confused with BOYS24's Yonghyun who used to also be a BTS backup dancer. He was the one that met BTS backstage and jungkook said that about him not about Rayoon

exactly what Marybis said to you. this guy will only have his first DEBUT STAGE today. so how in the world they met a month ago??

And? BTS aren't their role model it's don't mean that BTS are or not good, just bc the guy used to be their back dancer didn't mean he was close to them, since most that just 1 sunbae already say that BTS's are a really kind and polite group I'm not afraid lol try again honey and try harder

Linest33 Miawruu • Monday, March 13, 2017

It's not Rayoon, but this show how considerate our boys are, but haters always try deny it so whatever

Miawruu Marybis • Monday, March 13, 2017

Ah.. Maybe u were right. I dont remember is this rayoon or from boys24. I just remember some new idol said he used to be BTS back up dancer. I thought it same person lol
