BTS's third member and second oldest, SUGA, has started his mandatory military service. Previously, it was announced that SUGA will begin his mandatory military service on September 22, 2023. Before his military discharge, the BTS rapper held a live session with fans to say his final goodbyes and also left a message on a fan community app.
SUGA's fans and supporters have flooded their messages, sending their best wishes for a safe and healthy journey during his time in office. One of the most poignant messages came from the daughter of SUGA's inspiration, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Miu Sakamoto.
SUGA is an idol who is loved by many people because of his kind and humble nature. His calm, transparent and calm personality has earned him the love and admiration of fans, friends and fellow celebrities. Before his departure, SUGA treated his fans to a solo album entitled D-Day.
This album features several meaningful collaborations that hold a special place in the hearts of SUGA and his fans. One of the collaborations, in particular, stood out and was very inspiring to SUGA and his fans. This collaboration was carried out with the late composer Ryuichi Sakamoto.
The famous Japanese composer and musician shares a personal connection with the BTS members through their love of music. He previously praised SUGA's passion, skills and talent in music. Sakamoto and SUGA had a private meeting in September when SUGA visited Tokyo.
Despite their brief encounter, the two artists were able to bond over their love of music and composition. In his Shincho essay, the 71-year-old artist praised his admiration for the K-pop idol, highlighting SUGA's dedication to music.
On April 2, 2023, following the sad news of the passing of legendary Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, BTS's SUGA took to his Instagram Story to share a heartfelt farewell message for the artist. It is evident from SUGA's message that he really respects and admires Sakamoto.
These two talented musicians collaborated on the song Snooze which also featured Woosung, a member of the South Korean rock band The Rose. A documentary entitled Road to D-Day was released alongside the album, providing insight into the making of the record.
The documentary includes footage of SUGA's meeting with Sakamoto and their collaboration on Snooze. It was a deeply moving moment when the late Japanese composer, who passed away at the end of March at the age of 71, contributed to the project. SUGA also emphasized the great influence Sakamoto's compositions had on his own music.
This interaction and their final collaboration clearly demonstrate positive feelings and mutual respect for each other. Furthermore, this mutual respect extends not only to Ryuichi Sakamoto but also to his family, showing SUGA's deep connection and appreciation for the late composer and his loved ones.
