SUGA presents a cool, blunt exterior but writes some of the most emotionally vulnerable music in BTS's catalog. As Agust D (his solo alter ego), he tackles depression, OCD, and societal pressure with devastating honesty. Off-stage, he is known for sleeping anywhere and his deadpan wit.

⏮ Before Debut

Min Yoongi grew up in Daegu and began rapping at age 13, inspired by Epik High. He worked part-time jobs — including delivering newspapers by bicycle in the early morning — to fund his music equipment. He performed as an underground rapper under the name Gloss before being accepted as a BigHit trainee in 2010, despite the company nearly rejecting him due to financial constraints on trainee support.
