According to Allkpop tabloid, the employee ‘A’ was able to gain access to RM's train ticketing information as well as his personal information, including his address, mobile phone number, and more, which the employee accessed illegally 18 times since 2019.

As per the report, the employee is said to have shared the information with people around him and gave RM's train reservation details to a friend so the friend could get a seat nearby.

Following internal investigation, Korail stated, "We confirmed 'A' accessed personal information without permission, but it has not been confirmed that 'A' leaked the information outside the company.

'A' has since been suspended from Korail. When questioned by SBS 8 News, 'A' stated, "I accessed it simply out of curiosity, and I'll be reflecting on myself." Meanwhile, RM has not yet reacted to the news. Moreover, this isn’t the first time RM’s personal information was leaked.

In January, when RM visited the Hwaeomsa Temple in Mount Jirisan, many Korean outlets quoted that he spent some time with the temple’s chief monk and talked about his personal thoughts, his military enlistment and other personal affairs.
