Recently, Taeyang became a frequent mention of ARMYs after he revealed his close friendships with the group. In particular, since his solo comeback with "VIBE", collaborating with Jimin, Taeyang has opened up more opportunities to collaborate with other talents in BTS.
There are many members that Taeyang became close with after meeting but this is probably one of the most successful members when he asked to work with him and he agreed. Even this member could not hide his happiness when the offer was welcomed.
Can you guess who wants to collaborate with Taeyang?
In the past time, BIGBANG Taeyang has surprised fans by revealing many close relationships with BTS members. He was first discovered when invited to a listening party before j-hope released the album Jack In The Box.
Many people at the time thought that it was very possible that j-hope and Taeyang would have some unique collaboration. Of course, it can also happen in the future when Taeyang is increasingly wanting to collaborate with many young artists to bring new music colors while j-hope is getting ready for solo activities.
Following that, Jimin and Taeyang surprised all their fans by announcing their collaboration for Taeyang's comeback single after a 6 year hiatus from the K-pop music scene. Naturally, their unexpected and exciting partnership led the two to build a great friendship.
They were even close enough that Taeyang knew Jimin's taste for kimchi stew. Along with that, he heaps praise on Jimin's terrifying hard work while working with VIBE.
Another member who also has a beautiful friendship with Taeyang is RM when they both share a hobby in art. After being introduced by an acquaintance and meeting RM by chance at an exhibition in Seoul, Taeyang and RM developed their friendship by going out and having dinner together to talk about art and music.
Most recently, Taeyang guested on SUGA's SUCHWITA series to promote "VIBE". As a fan of BIGBANG for many years, SUGA is naturally excited to have Taeyang on his show. He also couldn't help but show a lot of admiration from beginning to end of the show for the artist he admired since he was in 7th grade.
So, before the interview ended, SUGA boldly made a request to prolong their relationship. He told Taeyang that he wanted to produce a song for him. SUGA once mentioned that he once wanted to produce a song for Taeyang and was about to call him and ask for a collaboration. But SUGA's shyness in front of a big idol made him unable to do so.
He said: "I wish we could talk more about music. I really wanted to produce a song for you. I always wonder if I could call or not..."
But what surprised SUGA was that Taeyang then showed an opposite admiration for SUGA's compositions. He said that he listened to all the songs SUGA composed, was especially impressed with Daechwita. He mentioned that: "I actually listenedall of your songs and I really love them all. Especially, Daechwita. I'm a huge fan and I know all your songs".
SUGA couldn't help but open his eyes wide and feel happy for receiving this praise!
Not only that, Taeyang was also very open and accepted SUGA's offer for a future collaboration. Maybe not just as a producer, SUGA can even sing and perform with Taeyang like when collaborating with PSY in That That.
Taeyang on the show also revealed that he is preparing for a full album to be released in April-May this year. So that could very well be SUGA's chance.
Hopefully, in the future, SUGA and Taeyang's music will be released soon!
