BTSRM said, "So it's 'INSSA'. It's like a short term of 'insider'. But it's not technically the meaning of the insider."

RM continued, "It means that like a popular one with who has a lot of friends."
BTSThen, other members came up with examples to help the viewers better understand the term.
BTSWhen JIN said, "I'm 'ASSA'," RM quickly added, "There's 'INSSA' and there's 'ASSA'. So it's 'insider' and 'outsider'. Yeah. So it's like a funny Korean slang."
BTSAt the end of their Korean slang class, RM said, "We're about to teach you one more slang."
BTSThe last Korean slang word was 'TMI', which stands for 'Too much information'.
