V wasn’t the only participant of BTS that struggled throughout the K-pop team’s earlier days — Suga taken care of his reasonable share of psychological lows as well, he disclosed on the Tuesday (Oct. 17) episode of his Suchwita alcohol consumption program.
The rap artist welcomed Kim Jong-wan, the vocalist of Korean rock band NELL, onto the program. Suga described his adoration for the band’s lyricism, and discussed just how reports of Jong-wan’s temperament — he was called “Kim devil” in journalism — mirrored several of his very own actions.
“Whenever I listen to NELL’s music, there’s always a sense of sadness and depravity. All that is captured in the music. Of course, when I was young, I also had a lot of anger and rage — anger against the world and against the system, but as I made my mixtapes, a lot of those negative emotions got reduced,” the BTS celebrity described.
He proceeded, “During D-DAY, compared to D-2, people said a lot of that rage was gone, but I don’t think that can be helped. I don’t think I need to bring back the emotions I’ve already dealt with. Back then, I was distressed and wanted to quit, but those thoughts went away through music, so now I’m thankful for those times. It was thanks to those moments that I can do all this now.”
Suga’s perseverance caused him proceeding his solo songs ventures. The brand-new years has actually seen the rap artist launch this year’s D-DAY and 2020’s D-2. Kim Jong-wan functions on the last job with track “Dear My Friend,” which he disclosed was a discouraging one for him to tape-record for Suga. “I was actually really scared because the guide vocals were done by Jung Kook. It sounded so good! At first, I was like … ‘How do I sing this?’” the NELL frontman remembered.
“After that, our company told me to stop using Jung Kook for the guide vocals because if I do people would feel feel pressured,” Suga responded. “I really think Jung Kook is an incredible vocalist. When I played the guide for other people, they said it had a unique feel.”
