    @erume57763 years ago back when Suga was still a trainee in BigHit before they debuted, he had a delivery job on the side to make money to pay for school. he didn't tell BigHit about it because they weren't supposed to have side jobs. anyway, he got in a car accident and injured his shoulder pretty badly. he hid it from BigHit too, but eventually they found out and instead of kicking him out, they helped pay for his schooling so that he could stop working. all that being said, the shoulder never healed quite right, and it has been a chronic source of pain for him since their debut days. last year it got to the point where he realized he would need to get it fixed to continue a life of a performer, because he barely could use his arm on a bad days and had to get painkiller injections for some shootings or concerts. so he decided to get a shoulder surgery that made it impossible for him to dance or promote with the group for a few months in the end of 2020. ARMY has been very anxious about his recovery, but he always reassured us that the recovery is going well, and during that time he was watching bts performances with us :) in 2021 he came back and now he is healthy finally and we can't be happier honestly ... 2044

    @HinataUchihaInuzuka93 years ago “The doctors asked me____, I said unhesitatingly that I have done it before."
    The part that has "bleep" on it. It means that the doctor asked if Suga committed (attempted/has thought of committing) suicide.
    The part where he mentioned memories about lying on the bathroom floor was a reference for attempting suicide according to k-armys.
    Suga had the hardest life (pre-debut) out of all the members. At 13, he started writing lyrics and learned MIDI. His first love his piano or music in general. (He made a song about his piano entitled "First Love") who he described as his only friend when he was a kid.
    His parents didn't support his passion for music. They were not financially stable and were being practical. They would even throw his lyrics to discourage him but Suga would sneakily continue to do it.
    "As for me...[my parents] were very much against [me becoming a rapper] to make me reconsider [my choice], they hit [me] and fought, and things like this... so I made music [under those circumstances].
    "I had some basic MIDI gear before entering the company, things I'd bought as lyricist after saving up enough money by walking around for 2 hrs every day and skipping dinners every day."
    In his hometown, he used to work as a studio engineer while composing and performing in front of 2- 50 people, ( he was part of the hip-hop group called D-town then where he is one of the youngest). He worked part-time at a music studio and was underpaid, sells his songs but often gets scammed (gets away w/o paying). He said his parents never saw him performed back then.
    Suga went to Seoul to pursue music at 17. A rural boy who went to Seoul, South Korea's capital city, even though not many could understand his dialect. Imagine pursuing your dream where no one believes in you aside from your older brother. Where everyone told you that if you pursue music, you'll make your family broke.
    He had only one supporter at that time, his older brother, to whom he would show his songs. When asked if his parents eventually gave him permission to make music and Suga replies "Well...before giving me permission, I was already out and about doing music."
    He struggled financially in Seoul and admitted that before, he would have to choose between buying two-dollar noodles or using his money to take a bus (he will always choose to starve ). On Wings concept interview, he said that in the past, he had struggled to afford three meals a day.
    Q: What happened in the past?"
    "I couldn't eat three meals a day It was hard"
    "When I was working in the studio, I arranged songs or made beats and even sold them. Then I naturally started to rap and did performances"
    Q: How much did you earn?
    "Nothing"
    Q: You said you were working though.
    "That’s what it was like to work there. Usually, we don’t have any income. Working in the studio, it was difficult to pay for food and transport. In front of the studio, there was a Chinese restaurant that sells Jajangmyeon for 2,000 won, if I walk down further, there was a place that sells Janchi-guksu for 1,000 won. I worried about it every day. If I eat the 1,000 won Janchi guksu, I could get the bus and if I eat the 2,000 won Jajangmyeon, I’d have to walk 2 hours to get home. Even though it was tough, I want to make music so I endured it."
    Suga/Agust D had nothing except for his skills and confidence. He saw an audition poster (From Bighit company) of a rap competition in which he participated and won 2nd place. In the semi-finals, participants were asked to perform to the same beat and write their own lyrics but Suga modified the beat, not just wrote the lyrics which made him stand out. He was scouted later on. He was the only member who was already an established producer before becoming part of BTS.
    His parents couldn't support him in his studies for they were poor that's why Suga worked part-time jobs as well (at dawn ) while maintaining going to school (at different times and will end up sleeping most of the time because he's tired) and practising as a trainee (at night). He also used to buy lottery tickets weekly because he was that desperate and hopeless.
    When he's in university, apart from working as a sound engineer before, he worked at a convenience store, taught composing and MIDI lessons, and another is that delivery job where he got into an accident (2012 pre-debut) and his shoulder got shattered. He didn't tell anyone, afraid the company will kick him out, that's why his shoulder didn't heal right. This shoulder will be something that he will have to endure for 9 years, later on. He told the members that he just fell down the stairs. Eventually, the company found out about this injury and paid his uni tuition and hospital fees. It was surprising considering that the company were facing almost "bankruptcy" at that time.
    Suga told the truth about the accident to the members 2018 on "Burn the stage series". It is also where he recalled that the last thing he remembered before the accident was the "wheel" in front of him. It's one of the factors as to why his mental health issues had worsened.
    "Min Yoongi was dead. (I killed him)"
    It is music that saved Yoongi and it is also music that Yoongi lives for.
    (He's been suffering for almost a decade because of that injury that didn't heal right. It even came to a point that it has become a hindrance to his everyday life. He once said in an interview that when he tried to lift a 50ml bottle when they were filming a commercial, his shoulder hurt. )
    Suga, underwent surgery last November, he took that decision because he wants to be able to continuously perform on stage. BTS dance choreographies are no joke and if you watch them perform, you won't think that Suga has an injury that he was enduring. Suga received injections often when he performs on stage. Had his shoulder dislocated often, too. I can't imagine how he managed to perform despite that. If he hadn't talked about it, fans wouldn't know that his old injury was constantly acting up. This is only a part of his hardships. He really had gone through so much shit to get where he is right now. No wonder he is so independent. Maybe it is why he is so used to carrying his burdens alone.
    "Bang Pdnim told me I've become much brighter after releasing my mixtape. He even asked me where the incisive person full of wrath from before had gone. It was my complex and the way to solve it was music that I need to make"
    Agust D is Yoongi's way of healing himself and also healing people who also have struggles and is feeling hopeless.

    @Isa061373 years ago When he talked about hiding in the bathroom because he was afraid of crowds, it happened at a concert in Japan in 2015, only 5 members went on stage they said that Yoongi and Taehyung were sick so they went at the hospital, they performed about 3 songs I think and then they cancelled the concert, and one day Yoongi said (I think it was through a letter) that he was actually there but he had a panic attack so he was hiding in the bathroom. After I heard this my respect for him grew even more, he really had been through so much. He deserves all the love, hopefully he is doing fine now. ... 863
  • @
    @sandy-fo5rh3 years ago the “crushed shoulder” refers to when his shoulder got dislodged after being hit by a car while he was working as a delivery boy (his family couldn’t afford his tuition). he didn’t tell the company back then because he was scared that they’d cut him off since he was a trainee. when he eventually told the agency, they said that they’d pay his college fees and help him recover. ... 866

    @taechwita59793 years ago Yoongi’s music has really helped me through tough times. He speaks to a lot of people and he’s so self-reflective and emotionally intelligent in his lyrics. His most recent album is so worth a breakdown too. He does it how he wants and he’s not afraid to lay himself bare. That was a really good lyric video though! The most watched one is pretty inaccurate. I can’t wait for your cypher Knox! I’ll be ready on Thursday! ... 552

    @kayceerice36273 years ago SUGA is a true ARTIST..not many of them have the courage to share all that about them 223
  • @
    @sunshinesam63993 years ago This song is very personal to Suga. I believe it’s in this song when he says “crushed shoulder.” That refers to when he had an accident before debut. His shoulder was hurt but he didn’t say anything because he was afraid they wouldn’t let him join. He recently got his surgery and wasn’t in a lot of performance due to his recovery. He returned in January I believe. So every hard choreography he’s ever done, he’s done in pain. ... 221
  • @
    @tracydowd40133 years ago Yoongi uses his platform to share his experience in order to help others to be able to deal with their own mental health issues. I don't know how many people I have come across that have said his music, his personal experience, has helped them to confront their own issues and heal. Not only that, but I've read and heard that South Korea has a real problem with youth suicide. I admire Yoongi's honesty and how he uses his platform to help others. 💜 ... 268
  • @
    @lucytipler78783 years ago This comment section shows exactly why people answer ‘BTS’ or any of the members when asked what artist inspires them. Because it is so many levels, it’s their music, their genuineness, their connection with their fans, their honesty and their talent. And people who aren’t ‘in’ it struggle to understand it and I think that’s why army in particular get a lot of scrutiny. The best way to explain it is to experience it yourself. Yoongi has music running through his veins, he has written, composed and/or produced many songs and I haven’t found a single one I don’t like. If you’d told me 5 years ago that a Korean rapper would help get me through some of the darkest times in my life, I’d never have believed you. 💜 ... 79

    @dingdong98843 years ago This comment section is just amazing to read. To feel so connected to others through someone’s music and know how much it means to people. I am beaming and I am genuinely so proud to be a part of this. Thank you to Knox for the reaction, to the person who recommended this exceptional lyric translation and most of all, to Agust D - a wonderfully talented human being who has undoubtedly saved many, many people.

    @djguidopolese3 years ago He cried many times while recording this song... One of my Fav songs by Agust D 💜
    I saw a Korean saying that at the time the song came out (2016) it was really bold by Suga to put this song out, because in Korea all these topics, expecially at the time, were pretty taboo... Cause media and TV expecially were all like "love, laugh, happiness"... And he came with this pure raw emotional song straight talking about these complicated topics 🔥🔥🔥💜 ...

    @Ignez7773 years ago the parenthesis were not interpretations, but actual facts that happened to give more context so when ppl or new armys that r still not as familiarized with the boys (and what they've shared about their private lives and struggles with us so far) can understand the references without getting confused or misunderstand, the only part that is "interpretation" is in the beep part, but that was confirmed even by korean armys that in that context is was indeed referring to suicide/self-harm since it's a big taboo in the country, so the censor was made on purpose ... 229

  • @
    @reneezemlock78803 years ago When Yoongi was still a trainee at Bighit, he was a delivery boy on bike... he got hit by a car and messed up his left shoulder. He hid the injury from BigHit because he was afraid he wouldn't be able to debut. Eventually he had to tell them and they made him quite that job and paid for his tuition, which is why he was still working. He underwent physical therapy for years including shots in his shoulder to relieve the pain for performances; he said if you ever saw him holding the MIC in his right hand, it meant his shoulder was in pain, since he usually holds the MIC with his left. He finally got surgery this past November which is why all the performance BTS did this past Winter for award shows, Suga wasn't there; he was recovering from surgery. He is good now; he says his shoulder doesn't hurt at all while performing. ... 52
  • @
    @elenamagdy84573 years ago Yoongi really does know how to deliver every emotion he’s feeling through his flow and voice. It always gets me.
    This song, first Love, and never mind. Are like top 3 for me.
    Side note tho, he mentioned his injured shoulder; he used to work as a delivery man during his debut days(I’m not sure when exactly) but thankfully he had a surgery for it last year and now recovered. And he really suffered in the past; having non supportive parents for his love of music and not having enough money he would either ride the bus or buy himself a meal.

    @suga_agustd_yoongi3 years ago our yoongi is one of the strongest people out there. he grew up with very little and had to choose between getting the bus from school everyday or eating. his parents didn’t understand his passion and were against his music-related endeavours. he’s worked so hard to get to where he is.
    i feel like when he made his mixtape “agust d” he was almost the first korean artist to talk about the issues of mental health, d*pression and s*uicide and he basically became this voice for people in korea who can’t talk about these taboo topics. in korea there is a stigma on mental illness and showing any openness on talking about it. the lyric “the doctor asks me if i’ve [censored]. i answered without hesitation that i did.” is so powerful. the censored party is the doctor asking yoongi if he tried to k*ll himself bc it’s such a taboo topic and he showed that by censoring it- however he responds quickly and said that he did try and k*ll himself showing he isn’t going to hide it like is expected but rather just admit to it. in korea it is expected that such things are censored and him using a physical “censor” could imply he is speaking out against that sort of censorship his country promotes.
    and the crushed shoulder is in reference to his trainee days where he needed to pay for his schooling and took a part time job as a delivery boy. he was met with a car accident and has suffered with the excruciating pain that came with that for about a decade. it was only in 2020 where he was able to take time out (bc i’m assuming his touring commitments had been reduced due to c0v!d) and have surgery on his shoulder and recover.
    please listen to more agust d and suga’s solo songs which are credited under bts’ discography such as interlude:shadow, first love and trivia:seesaw.

    @amandalavallee96693 years ago While Namjoon (RM) is my bias, I have a strong empathetic connection to Yoongi (Suga). Something about when he puts pen to paper hits me at the deepest parts of my heart and soul. I feel all of his emotions and conflicts. A large number of his songs have brought me to tears. Interlude: Shadow was one that made me literally ugly cry. While J-Hope and RM are phenomenal lyricist, there is something on an entirely different level that makes me connect to Yoongi. This is just one of the major reasons that I love BTS. You can have a bias, and most do, but about 99% of all ARMY loves every single member for varying reasons. Each member is diverse in personality and background. Yoongi just happens to be the one I sit with when I need my soul devoured. ... 31

  • @
    @iwanttosueminyoongiforbein28193 years ago You will love Suga's solo song 'Interlude: Shadow'. It's under BTS album 'Map of the Soul:7' and together with RM's "Intro: Persona" and J-Hope's "Outro:Ego" it forms a cycle with references to Karl Jung's psyche theory. It would be great if you could react to all 3 songs.
    However, for Shadow, please keep in mind that there is an MV (technically, a comeback trailer) but it features not the whole song. So my suggestion is a Lyric video + MV to fully experience the song. 😉

  • @
    @kaitlynmckenzie82622 years ago this song was incredibly brave of yoongi to put out. it’s brave of anyone to talk about these experiences, but in korea, mental illness is NOT talked about. it’s ignored. so for him to come out, as one of the biggest and most famous people in korea, and say “yeah. i’m depressed. i have ocd. i tried to k*lol myself.” was HUGE. he’s even had haters call him “mental patient” following this as an insult. he and rm, especially, have been talking about these issues to try and make it more socially acceptable. ... 13
  • @
    @elliem.15723 years ago As far as I know SUGA injured his shoulder while a trainee in Big Hit (now HYBE) when he was working a part-time job as a delivery person. Said shoulder didn’t really heal properly and throughout his career in BTS it has been giving him trouble (especially considering their intense choreographies). Last year during the pandemic he finally had an opportunity to have surgery and go inti recovery for a few months missing some BTS activities. I believe it’s way better now but to be honest can’t remember whether Yoongi said anything specific about it ... 22
  • @
    @jchelseaw84183 years ago This is one of those songs that really helps me on bad days. The beginning of this year I pretty much NEEDED the reminder that you can get through the hardest struggles in your life and keep going forward. In the span of 3 weeks back in January, I got hospitalized (nothing major but major bills), turned 30 (yay she says sarcastically), got into a car accident (ANOTHER big bill), and then to top it all off, lost my job... all while I already was being treated for anxiety and depression. So basically rock bottom. I HAD to sort of look at how this song by someone I really admire shows you can hit rock bottom mentally and in your life and still survive it all. Kind of telling myself, "If Yoongi could get through all of that and still succeed in life, so can I." ... 11
  • @
    @octo4483 years ago I've never heard a rap quite like this one. It isn't full of metaphors, descriptive language, jabs, jokes, or puns. It's just feelings, well written but ultimately just saying exactly what it means to say. The honesty is obvious, but I feel like the lack of 'artistry' or additional elements is extremely intentional IMO. It's just him and the mic.
    Edit: Also, it's my birthday! Happy Birthday to anyone else who was born today!

    @didyouseemybag49123 years ago "Show me the money", which he mentioned, is a rap TV show, where rappers compete together. This show is pretty fake and some rappers gain recognition from it. That is why in the lyrics Yoongi is saying that he doesn't need it, he became successful without this show
    The concert that he is talking about, when he hid in the bathroom, is the concert that BTS had to cancel because Yoongi was having serious panic attack
    He mentioned word "han", which wasn't translated. It is interesting. The next info is from doolset: "Han is a mix of sorrow, nostalgia, anger, pain, and hope. It’s the emotional journey and state of mind of someone who has been gravely wronged but is powerless (made powerless) in society to take revenge but decides eventually to cling to the hope of a better future when you overcome your Han"
    The censored part is actually saying "Have you ever..." probably implying suicide attempt/self-harm
    Also "trying to sleep on bathroom's floor" seems to be a metaphor for suicide
    Part about crushed shoulder is about that time when he got into a car incident during his delivery job and severely injured his shoulder. He was afraid that his label kick him out if they found out about that because it was in 2012 and he was already a member of BTS, so he didn't tell anyone and continued to train with a crushed shoulder. It could never heal proprely and since that time, for 8 years he was suffering from pain until last year he got surgery
    In conclusion Yoongi is very strong person and inspires a lot of people

    @itmfiddler3 years ago While Agust D’s music (and his Suga from BTS music) often stirs up emotions in me, this one hits so hard, as hard today as the first time I heard it. It’s raw and speaks to something so personal for him, and it touches on some things very personal for myself, and it hurts. I still cry whenever I listen to this song. Agust D’s music is what brought me out of the numbness I was stuck in months ago. It started me on the path to healing. It is not hyperbole to say that without his music breaking through to me, followed by finding BTS and their message, I wouldn’t be alive today. ... 22

    @leej6763 years ago Ah cheers for this bud! Agust D's songs mean a hell of a lot to me, his honesty and the emotion he puts into his raps are second to none. He is also a fantastic producer, you should sometime check out the instrumentals to songs he has produced either for himself, BTS or other artists as it really highlights his natural talent. You won't catch him anywhere without his recording equipment! Also, to be fair, I probably would have recommended the same lyric vid to you, it is almost spot on and provides extra facts that help understand the song more if you didn't know Agust D well.

    @marinal.3 years ago Hi, I am back. Good reaction, ty. I love to see u take time and really focus on the song. Yoongi killed it. This was so powerful. It's the 1st time I think I am hearing the full song. I have only heard a snippet in a intro vid before. Yeah, in his trainee days he was working and he got hit by a car. He was scared to loose this opportunity. So he hid his shoulder injury. Later on he finally told all. The agency assured him that they would not have let him go. They got him support but he did not do surgery. He injured himself more in the years after and only last year did he finally do the shoulder surgery. He was doing rehab and missed many group performances and interviews. The guys missed him so bad! They made photos of him for every interview he missed. And when he came back they gave him all those photos, lol. There is a photo of that. He is an amazing producer, rapper, songwriter, dancer, and person!!! I am so glad he is in less pain now. He recently got a contract from Samsung to redo their Over the Horizon ringtone. He killed it. Hope your staying safe. Hugs. -NY USA Army 💜 ... 5

Also that lyric video is definitely one of the best ones, the extra info at the bottom is just because he references past experiences that you wouldn’t know if you didn’t know much about his journey 💜💜 Thanks Knox! ... 22

    @conepao3 years ago One of the reason why I feel so connected to BTS' members and specially to Suga is because they've always tried to share who they are and how they feel with us. Yes, they are idols but they're also humans. They don't hide behind their success and they don't blame anyone for their hardships (like other artist), they just take those situations and make them music with a great message to show everyone that whatever happens there's always hope. And also they're the only artists that I know that always thanks their fans but not only with words also with actions, working harder every time. They're truly amazing people that deserve a lot of love and I'm so glad to see Yoongi happy now. ... 6

    @Min.QueenieZ3 years ago This is my favorite song of his, not only because of the lyrics that are so honest, powerful and meaningful but also the musicality of this song, you can feel the emotions on every single beat of the song. He really stripped down and gave us his raw emotions. He really took us to his emotional and mental state at the time of him writing this song. As a fan I appreciate his honesty and boldness to even put this song out it must have been hard to share this side of his story to the world. And I'm so glad he did and I'm so happy he is getting better.
    Love that guy he really is something else. I have never had this experience of having such a strong connection to any other artists. He is so relatable. Love you Agust D!

    @slayra3 years ago The Last, at last! Yoongi (his birth name) has been very upfront about his mental health issues, like you said he sees his music as a platform to help others deal with it. But i also think this is very 'confessional' it's just something he had to write, to sing (not sure if he produced this one but he produces a lot of his tracks). Thats the type of person Min Yoongi is, he just expresses himself through music. Also, the flatline was dea5h (by suicide, i believe). Not sure if he ever tried it, but it seems to have crossed his mind, if the lyrics are any indication.
    Also, let's not minimize depression by saying he got 'past it'. People dont seem to get that it is a disease with physiological causes (at least major depression is), it's not all "in people's head". While the song crescendoes from the depths of depression to gaining confidence and a new perspective of himself with self - knowledge and acceptance of who and what he is (an idol) that doesnt mean he's necessarily fine. We cannot say one way or the other because he didnt tell us, as it is, after all, a private matter.
    No shade, Knox, but while mindfullness is a very terapeutic way to help depressive people i really wouldnt want people to think all you need to do to get rid of major depression is to change your mindset (which is something that i think can be taken from your words even if it wasnt intentional... Or i may just be reading too much into it, i dunno). Anyways, if someone feels so sad they are thinking of ending it all or even if life is colorless and a chore please see a doctor! Depression is no joke, its very serious 😔

    @libedjmjjkkth52303 years ago Among the bts members, suga or min yoongi, i consider him as the most admirable and the bravest of all. He has the most unfurtunate and difficult life among them. But he never surrender and always tries his best to overcome and succeed in every possible way. depression is not a joke. And it takes full amount of courage to overcome it, and i guess yoongi did well. That's why he is my inspiration. I learned a lot from his experience and tru his lyrics ... 4

    @joonieluv59183 years ago Yoongi had an accident when he worked as a delivery boy where his shoulder was badly damaged. This was before their debut. He was scared that he might get kicked out so he told nobody about it and suffered all of it silently for all these years. It was only last year, in ending of 2020 that he underwent a surgery and now he is completely fine. It is because of his honesty in his music, that it is very close to my heart. Very few people have the courage to be this open and share their dark thoughts, but he does that. He has said multiple times that he feels people who have a platform should speak more about this. He has been through a lot and he is the strongest person I know. His music has helped me a lot , especially this song, he is my source of strength. Everytime I listen to this song my respect for him increases. Min Yoongi, I'm proud of you. ... 3

He's so talented and sharing this part of him just makes him not only an artist but a real person that has overcome a lot. That's just one of the many reasons he's my bias. Yoongi is just a beautiful soul that feels everything in this world. People may think he's cold hearted but he's not, he's just good at hiding he's true feelings but can show all of them in his songs. ... 7

Couldn't find someone to talk to (during this time, mental health discussion was still a taboo in my country), until I found Agust D's album which let me understand my emotions somehow. Like... "Wow this is what I felt, I'm not alone" ... 4

There are many other songs you have yet to discover from him still and I just want to say that I don't think I would be in a 'manageable' place if it wasn't for him and BTS. If on the smallest of chances he ever saw this, I just want to say thank you so much man, you deserve so much support and recognition for your musical talent and honest lyrics, and you really did save me from sinking too deep. ... 2

    @theleggend273 years ago Please react to their Trench (Album) Trilogy, watching order: 1. Jumpsuit | 2. Nico and the Niners | 3. Levitate | although, I would recommend you to listen to Bandito first since it is (kind of an introduction to the trilogy.) (There will be a few stuff you might not understand here is a short quick story behind the trilogy: There is a city called DEMA, in that city there are Nico (the leader) and nine bishops. Nico is Tyler´s blurryface, his depression, fear, anxiety etc. and the colour Yellow represents happiness while the group called " Bandito " are the rebels that have successfully ESCAPED from DEMA and the Bishops. BTW, the yellow flower is like a key/token Tyler always takes one when he doesn't succeed from escaping the Bishops. ) and listen to Morph after the trilogy :)
    Hope you react to it as it is criminally underrated!!!!!!
    also if you got time, could you react to at least one of these good songs as they are ASLO really underrated by Twenty one Pilots:
    Bandito
    Morph
    Message Man
    Goner
    Redecorate
    My Blood
    Cut my Lip

    @Fatuh31083 years ago Knox, I respect you and admire you A LOT! I was waiting for your reaction to 'The Last' for months! This song made me connect with Yoongi in a hole different way. The lyrics, his confessions, the emotions, the crescendo through all the song... I cry everytime I heard it. But this is the first time I cry when someone REACTS to it. Why? Because you always understand almost everything in the songs, even when you're not so familiarized with the artist or the culture. It's amazing the way your interpretations always get to the point and you understand perfectly the message of the song. I'm literally tears right now. But tears of joy because we all (you, me, people on comments) are united and have the same feelings about Agust D and his music. Thank you for this. I really mean it, THANK YOU. A lot of love from Buenos Aires, Argentina! ... 2

    @KhawChing3 years ago You touched on something in this video. You mentioned how Yoongi is able to deliver emotion with his voice and rap flows. Well something close to that. It's why he is my favorite male Korean rapper. That's not to say I don't like others, I enjoy listening to a lot of various male Korean rappers, just that Yoongi has a control over his voice that can go from whispers to low and gravelly to high pitched and squeaky. He can push you towards what he wants you to feel with his voice and delivery when he raps. He's one of those talents that makes me so happy that I got in to Korean music 7-8 or so years ago. Thank you Yoongi. You're right up there with Tupac in my book.
    Can't wait for your cypher. Will be checking that out for sure!

    @alyzacruz61563 years ago Suga had the hardest life (pre-debut) out of all the members. At 13, he started writing lyrics and learned MIDI . His first love his piano or music in general. (He made a song about his piano entitled "First Love") who he described as his only friend when he was a kid.
    His parents didn't support his passion for music in the beginning. They were not financially stable and were being practical. They would even throw his lyrics to discourage him but Suga would sneakily continue to do it.
    "As for me...[my parents] were very much against [me becoming a rapper] to make me reconsider [my choice], they hit [me] and fought, and things like this...so I made music [under those circumstances].
    "I had some basic MIDI gear before entering the company, things I'd bought as lyricist after saving up enough money by walking around for 2 hrs everyday and skipping dinners everyday"
    In his hometown, he used to work as a studio engineer while composing and performing in front of 2- 50 people, ( he was part of the hip-hop group called D-town then where he is one of the youngest). He worked part time at a music studio and was underpaid, sells his songs but often gets scammed (gets away w/o paying) . He said his parents never saw him performed back then.
    Suga went to Seoul to pursue music at 17. Imagine pursuing your dream where no one believes in you aside from your older brother. Where everyone told you that if you pursue music, you'll make your family broke.
    He had only one supporter at that time, his older brother, to whom he would show his songs.
    When asked if his parents eventually gave him permission to make music and Suga replies "well...before giving me permission, I was already out and about doing music."
    He struggled at finance in Seoul and admitted that before, he would have to choose between buying a two dollar noodles or using his money to take a bus (he will always choose to starve ). On Wings concept interview, he said that in the past, he had struggled to afford three meals a day.
    Q: What happened in the past?"
    "I couldn't eat three meals a day
    It was hard"
    "When I was working in the studio, I arranged songs or made beats and even sold them. Then I naturally started to rap and did performances"
    Q: How much did you earn?
    " Nothing"
    Q: You said you were working though.
    "That’s what it was like to work there. Usually we don’t have any income. Working in the studio, it was difficult to pay for food and transport. In front of the studio, there was a Chinese restaurant that sells Jajangmyeon (noodles) for 2,000 won, if I walk down further, there was a place that sells Janchi guksu for 1,000 won. I worried about it everyday. If I eat the 1,000 won Janchi guksu, I could get the bus and if I eat the 2,000 won Jajangmyeon, I’d have to walk 2 hours to get home. Even though it was tough, I want to make music so I endured it."
