BTS star RM took a detour on Stanford’s campus before the group’s final Bay Area concert — not to a famous landmark, but to a quiet cluster of trees tied to one of K-pop’s most bizarre internet scandals. Before BTS’ scheduled concert at Stanford Stadium on Tuesday, May 19, RM visited a campus spot  fans know as the “Crying Tree,” recreating a famous image of Tablo, the Stanford-educated rapper and leader of the Korean hip-hop group Epik High. The photo quickly spread among fans after appearing on RM’s Instagram account and being reposted by Tablo. “omg he actually went to the crying tree,” Tablo wrote on Instagram. For casual fans, the photo may have looked like a simple campus snapshot. But for many K-pop followers, it linked BTS’ blockbuster Bay Area run to one of the most painful — and eventually strangely funny — chapters in Korean pop culture history. Tablo, whose legal name is Daniel Lee, attended Stanford before becoming one of South Korea’s most influential rappers. In 2010, he became the target of an online harassment campaign that falsely claimed he had lied about earning his Stanford degrees. Stanford officials confirmed at the time that Lee had earned both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in English. “I still don’t understand this national phenomenon, where for two years all of Korea was fixated on me and my identity,” Tablo told the Chronicle in 2022. As part of a 2010 MBC documentary, “Tablo Goes to Stanford,” meant to put the rumors to rest, the singer returned to the campus and sat near a group of trees by Meyer Green. Overwhelmed by the ordeal, he broke down in tears. Fans later began referring to the location as the “Crying Tree,” a shorthand for the toll the conspiracy theory took on Tablo and his family. Last year, Epik High members Mithra Jin and DJ Tukutz brought Tablo back to Stanford for a YouTube video and coaxed him into recreating the moment with a comic twist. In a later video with RM and Suga, Tablo urged the BTS members to visit the spot during their Stanford concerts. RM appears to have taken the assignment seriously. In the photo posted Monday, May 18, he wore a dark outfit and backpack that echoed Tablo’s original image, turning a once-painful Stanford landmark into a knowing tribute between two generations of Korean music stars.

ARMY showed OUT for night one of the BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG' in Stanford Stadium 🌊💜 #방탄소년단 #BTS #BTS_WORLDTOUR_ARIRANG #BTS_WORLDTOUR_ARIRANG_NA #BTS_WORLDTOUR_ARIRANG_STANFORD

When BTS rolls into Stanford Stadium for three concerts this week, there’ll be a tricked-out welcome wagon to greet them. For eight hours each concert day, Saturday-Sunday, May 16-17 and Tuesday, May 19, an LED billboard truck funded entirely by fan group @BayAreaBTSxARMY, aka BABA, will cruise El Camino Real and Galvez Street near the venue with a rolling welcome message to the South Korean boy band. BABA crowdsourced more than $7,500 for the four-wheeled tribute emblazoned with images of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook and messages reading “Welcome Back to the Bay BTS” and “We Can Spend a Lifetime Watching You.” This wasn’t the fan group’s first go-around. BABA previously raised money and put up billboards along I-880 honoring BTS members Suga (2023) and J-Hope (2025) for their solo concerts at nearby Oakland Arena. “We wanted to do the same thing when all seven came back,” said Michelle Baptista of San Jose.
