Mini bio
How it started.
Born Min Yoon-gi in Daegu, SUGA began writing lyrics and working with MIDI at 13. He performed underground as Gloss before joining Big Hit in 2010. He debuted with BTS in June 2013.
Finding their audience.
SUGA, RM and j-hope were among BTS’s earliest members. In a 2017 TIME interview, RM pointed to their 2015 album and “I NEED U” as the moment the group took off.
A voice of his own.
His Agust D releases give him room for a more unfiltered voice. The 2016 mixtape Agust D and 2020’s D-2 led to D-DAY in 2023, the finale of that trilogy. He participated in writing every D-DAY track and in its overall production.
Across the studio.
His collaborations include producing and rapping on IU’s “eight” and PSY’s “That That.” On BTS’s 2026 album ARIRANG, his contributions include “Body to Body,” “Merry Go Round” and “NORMAL.”
