For BTS fans, the fact that the group lived through difficult days before and at the time when they first debuted is not a strange story. But in reality, the hardships that BTS showed us before are just the tip of the iceberg for themselves - only those who go through it see how far they really have come.
In the recently aired program Suchwita, SUGA reminisced and sympathized with Lee Sung Min when recounting past stories. After watching the latest episode of this show, Jimin also expressed his feelings after watching SUGA talk about the group's days of extreme poverty.
He couldn't contain his emotions and expressed it on Weverse with his fans:
On the 2nd, on the YouTube channel 'Bangtan TV', 'Schwita. Episode 6 Suga with Lee Sung-min' has been released. Actor Lee Seong-min, who played the role of chairman Jin Yang-chul in the JTBC drama The youngest tycoon, appeared as a guest.
SUGA shared that this υиєχρє¢тє∂ meeting with the famous actor is because they are both from Daegu and their house is in the same neighborhood. Meanwhile, Lee Sung Min is a famous actor that SUGA has admired for a long time and wanted the show's production team to invite him. It finally came true!
But what's more surprising is that through this conversation, SUGA and Lee Sung Min find a lot in common in their journey to success. It covers the hardships they went through in the first years of their careers.
Veteran actor, Lee Sung Min talks about his poor days when he started as an actor. He said, “I got married in Daegu and gave birth to a child. Then I came to Seoul to act, but I had no income for six years.”
Along with that, SUGA expressed sympathy when recalling the first days when BTS first debuted. "It's a case where we've suffered so much, so I sympathize," he said.
He continued to talk about the days when he and the members shared a small basement - the place where their musical dreams began, and even the days when they went to pick up things that people threw away. “We ever worked as spreading flyers and went to the event without getting paid,” he told, "Also, the studio is in Namsan-dong, Daegu, but it's underground so it rains a lot."
He recalls the tough days before debut, saying, “We didn't have money to buy furniture, so we went around the neighborhood and picked up old furniture and mattresses, ate, slept, and composed music in the underground studio.” All the hardships they went through during those poor years in exchange for the satisfaction of their päṩṩion for music and their debut as idols.
It's fortunate that the trade-off was worth it and today, BTS has succeeded in what they strive for. When looking back on his life many years ago through the story that SUGA told actor Lee Sung Min, Jimin couldn't help but express his feelings of amusement.
Jimin wrote on Weverse along with taking a photo after watching Suchwita that: "They both look happy because they're talking about their memories" and "Why does SUGA hyung and Lee Sung Min sunbae-nim suit each other".
Maybe Jimin loved the story of memories told by both of them on the show because it touched his heart and emotions. But through it, Jimin also proves that he is a huge fan of Suchwita and that is really cute.
