  "account": "The BTS member RM has been touring North America with the ARIRANG World Tour, but that didn’t stop him from visiting a local store to browse novelty mugs and merchandise. On his Instagram account, RM posted a photo of himself wearing a vintage Helmut Lang T-shirt and holding a coffee mug with an NSFW message. The mug, which covered his entire face, featured a large, all-caps phrase that could not be typed out in this account. After posting the photo, RM quickly closed off the comments on his post, seemingly telling his followers to heed the instructions on the mug. While it is unclear whether RM actually purchased the \"Shut the F–k Up\" mug, fans can now buy a similar mug from Amazon. The 11 oz. version of the mug is priced at $12.99 and features the same R-rated phrase on both sides of the white ceramic cup. The mug is also claimed to be microwave-safe. The 22 oz. version of the mug is priced at $18.98.",
  "summary": "The novelty mug featured a pointed phrase that we probably can't type out here (though you can see the photo below).",
