BTS‘s Suga might be touring solo, but he’s not really alone.
Suga is kicking off his anticipated SUGA | Agust D TOUR ‘D-DAY’ IN US today in Belmont Park.
He is the first BTS member to tour as a solo artist. Currently, Jin and J-Hope are fulfilling their mandatory military enlistment, and the rest of the members are focusing on their individual endeavors until 2025, when they have all completed enlistment.
While Suga might technically be touring as a solo artist rather than with his group, that doesn’t mean he is entirely touring without them…
Suga shared a video of himself playing the guitar on Instagram, captioned, “D-DAY,” as today is the day his tour begins.

Eagle-eyed ARMYs noticed two things. Firstly, the guitar pick charm from his tour merchandise matches the design on his guitar.
Guys. The picks match his guitar

It appears that all the BTS members autographed his guitar ahead of him leaving for his tour. Naturally, ARMYs were emotional at the mental picture of them gathering around to sign Suga’s guitar.
