BTS’ Suga reveals the reason he's alive despite battling depression: 'I saw everyone's face...'

Rapper-songwriter Suga, a member of the popular K-pop band BTS, is currently on a world tour promoting his latest album ‘D-Day’. Suga, who previously talked about dealing with depression, recently opened up about why he has been so happy lately.

During a concert, Suga said that seeing his fans made him realize they are the reason he is still alive despite many hardships.

‘When I was on stage, I saw everyone’s face and it made me very happy. It made me realize that’s the reason I’m alive,’ Suga said in Korean, which was translated by an on-stage translator who is accompanying the musician on the tour.

For the unversed, in 2021, Suga had revealed during an interview that his depression comes and goes in cycles. ‘I’m comfortable now and feeling good, but those sorts of negative emotions come and go. So it’s almost like cold weather. It may come back in a cycle over a year, year and a half. It’s very encouraging. I think, for anybody, these emotions are not something that need to be hidden. They need to be discussed and expressed. Whatever emotions that I may be feeling, I’m always ready to express them now, as I was before,’ he said.

Suga’s new song ‘Amygdala’ from ‘D-Day’ highlights his past accidents, family’s misfortune and the effect it ended up having on him.
