BTS's SUGA and his counterpart Agust D sat down with each other and had a special session to answer a few questions on music.

On April 11, Disney Plus Korea uploaded a special video ahead of the 'SUGA: Road to D-Day' documentary release. In the video released on this day, SUGA sat down with Agust D and had a session where they were able to interview each other and also share some of the music principles they share.

First, SUGA asked Agust D if there is a reason why his songs seemed more straightforward and blunt. Agust D replied, "I have always made music honestly and I don't think I try to make it more straightforward. I did what I have been doing, but personally, I think there is a little more I can say when I make my own music than for the team." He continued, "I just make music because I am a person who makes music. There isn't a catharsis in doing so. But I talk about my trauma or feelings that I need to overcome through my albums. And I think I feel more liberated by it. And feeling more liberated helps me grow a little more and it affects my next album or music a lot."



SUGA also talked about his music career and how it is to live as an idol. He shared, "In particular, when it comes to so-called popular music, I think that the first thing I should care about is the results, and therefore, the outcome (popularity) should be good too. Well yet, there are a lot of songs by SUGA that are rated R. so I don't make music with that many boundaries in mind. But when I produce for other musicians as SUGA or produce their songs, I have no choice but to think about the results first."

All in All, the two were able to share their candid thoughts on living their life as a musician.

The way I laughed! I remember there was a K-pop podcast my friend sent me, where the people running the show had asked listeners to write in about which idols inspired them. They apparently were not ARMYs, because they kept saying, "Oh, here's another letter about Suga... and another... and another about Suga... Wow, so many BTS fans are inspired by Suga! Interesting..." Until finally, one said, "Oh! Here's one about Yoongi, instead!"




Now all we need is Gloss to get involved, too!
