@@Yoonji9212 It's included in the documentary "Road to D-day" on Disney+

yoongi wrote the song for the upcoming artists who struggle to stay afloat on their journey, but also for his past self who experienced exactly that but had no senior artist to tell him these words. bts did a lot of "first korean act to", "first asian act to", "first act to" and as it was happening they had no one who was able to give them advice because no one was where they reached. figuring everything out by themselves was hard on their mental health

Woosung is a great artist, he is also member of the indie-rock band called The rose. I hope you will react to some of their pieces

Minyoongi AKA suga Aka August D. Im going to his concert in Melbourne Australia on 10th April 2024 to world wide release of his concerts in 2024 in cinema'saround the world. He introduced me to Woosung of Rose. Suga is a world recognised producer and extremely smart. I a senior Army and BTS, introduced me to amazing rapp lyrics, amazing. I also now follow Sakumoto🎉 RIPV

His daughter shared such loving words about Yoongi and his tour and the tribute he incorporated in his tour, she even said that following Yoongi's tour/progess was part of her grieving process.

There is a documentary you can watch where Yoongi goes to visit the terminally ill Ryuichi Sakamoto, a huge personal hero of his. He explains to Ryuichi Sakamoto the role he had in his decision to pursue Music. They spend some quality time, and Ryuichi Sakamoto agrees to work on this song. Maybe his last? It was so fitting this song was about supporting new artists.

The live version of this song was so beautifully performed and staged for his D-day tour. It starts with a video clip of Suga watching Ryuichi Sakamoto playing the piano from the D-day documentary. During the performance Suga is dressed all in white and stands in the middle of the stage rapping at a microphone stand with a huge screen behind him projecting his performance. During the performance video images of a forest growing are projected onto Suga and continue to grow as the song builds until the video takes the audience soaring above a forest. It was a beautiful visual trubute to Sakamoto who founded and lead a conservation organization called More Trees. The month that he died Sakamoto wrote a letter to the Tokyo Goverment opposing a redevelopment plan that involved cutting down hundreds trees in the Jingu forest that surrounds the Meji Jingu shrine in Tokyo. The performance was a subtle and visually stunning way to honor him and what he loved. When the song ended the screen goes black and in simple white type a message "I wish you peace on your long journey. RIP".

Yoongi met Sakamoto just a few months before he passed away, Sakamoto was a big hero to Yoongi.

I agree, that's a perfect description!

I'm not sure how much you know about Min YoonGi aka Suga/AugstD....but as you liked his MV then the following info might be of interest to you. Suga/Agust D began writing music lyrics and working with MIDI at age 11 and held a part-time job composing and arranging music at a recording studio at age 16. Active under the name "Gloss" (wordplay on his name YoonGi, which means "to shine") as an underground rapper in his hometown Daegu, He originally entered Big Hit Entertainment as a producer at age 17 and became the second member to join BTS..... At BTS debut in 2013 he was 20 y.o.... he is one of BTSs main producers/songwriters/composers and has over 150 song copyrights.... he also produces for other artists and has won awards for his work.... he is one of the fastest rappers in South Korea. Suga (SHU-GA.... from Shooting Guard - the position he played in basketball) ...... AgustD = SUGA + DT (Daegu Town - his hometown) Spelt Backwards Between his commitments as a member of BTS, Suga/Agust D took advantage of time on the plane and in hotel rooms after concerts to continuously produce, write and compose music. In an interview for Grazia Korea, Suga/Agust D expressed a desire to release the music he wanted to do without having to consider popular appeal or music ranking. He intended to release his music for free in the form of a mixtape to avoid such considerations, commenting that an album "has a feeling of being trapped in some sort of framework" due to the need for company involvement in promotion and advertising. He has released 2 free mixtapes - and last year released his first official album (of which he continues to maintain full creative control) Developing Agust D musically on the base of hip hop, much of Agust D's inspiration for the lyrics came from his own stories of dream, youth, and reality. In order to differentiate his work from that of his work as Suga, he developed the alter ego "Agust D". He is best known for his honest hardhitting lyrics. Have a great day 💜

It's the icing on the cake of jhopes song.

Woosung and his band The Rose are so worthy of a listen on their own. I was lucky enough to see them live when they did a US tour last year. The voice you hear in Snooze is only a small bit of his talent and the talent of the other band members. Their voices are so good as is their music.

Yoongi was inspired and looked at Ryuichi Sakamoto as a mentor. He went to watch a movie he did a score in when he was a child and that was the beginning of his musical journey. When Yoongi was a teenager he used to take the scores of Ryuichi and chop them and reverse them to learn how to produce. He even has a video on his instagram of him playing Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence while he was in Japan to meet him. If you want to see that meeting I'd recommend you check out Suga:Road to DDay Documentary, which includes all of it as well as Yoongi playing the piano for him and Ryuichi Sakamoto playing something for Yoongi.

This is a very emotional song - love it - Suga and Woosung are perfect!!

Suga's speaking voice is usually a little deeper than this. Oddly enough the aspiration is also there when he speaks sometimes. Woosung's voice is absolutely gorgeous, and I've always wondered what a collab would sound like with him and Tae (from bts). Woosung's the lead singer and guitarist with The Rose as well as doing solo work too. I've been a fan of Ryuichi Sakamoto for at least 25 years and so was delirious when i found out this track was happening. Needless to say, it didn't dissapoint. Suga wrote this song for younger people as he said that bts didnt have any peers who they could relate to when they were younger. You should be able to find on youtube the meeting between Suga and Ryuichi not long before he died.✌️💜

And I was deliriously happy --to borrow your phrase--to learn he was collabing with Woosung! It was so surprising and I have loved that ARMY has been introduced as a whole to him and The Rose. I can imagine this is similar to how you felt about Ryuichi Sakamoto. Thank goodness for Yoongi. :)

While I do think there are better songs to look at Yoongi's vocals (e.g. People, SDL, Amygdala, Life goes on...) Snooze really is insanely beautiful and such a meaningful song I think everyone should listen to it (Next I recommend RM - *Forgetful, Wild Flower* , J-hope - *on the street, More, Neuron* and the Agust D songs I already mentioned)

First time I heard this was live in Suga’s documentary and actually stopped the film mid-song to look up who the heck Woosung was. His VOICE. He’s the singer and lead guitarist of The Rose and also has solo stuff. He and The Rose are incredible. I hadn’t listened to Sakamoto in years so loved the scene with them together in the documentary. This song is so lush and gorgeous and deeply meaningful. Love this song so much.

I am so sorry it was so upsetting...but Suga (Agust-D) shows his meeting with his idol, Ryuichi Sakamoto, in his D-Day documentary, and I think you would love seeing it-he played piano for him and they shared so much. He did revere him so very much-a true idol of his as well. Thank you for this reaction-I so enjoyed it.

Yoongi saw "The Last Emperor" as a kid with his parents and it is what started him wanting to write music. He would use Sakomoto's music to mix and create his own. He actually played "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" for Ryuichi when at that meeting. "Snooze" was one of the last things Ryuichi worked on before he passed away.

Woosung is in The Rose. Highly recommended

I'm die-hard BTS fan BUT I really love Woosungs voice and have listened to some interviews and performances, Suga only admires and recommends the 👌 👍 😍 🥰 ☺️ 💖

Sakamoto has been my favorite composer since I was a teen. Seeing he also being Suga musical inspiration since he was a child and that he got to collaborate on this as the final musical project before Sakamoto passed. It’s an emotional train. I hadn’t listened to Woosung or his band The Rose before this and now I adore him. His voice is amazing. The whole song is just a punch. I have days that are hard I just need to hear Suga say “everything will be ok” 16 times. In the final tour concert concert Suga was sobbing trying to get through the song and always deeply emotional every show. Fyi Suga did a cover of Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence on piano on his instagram. I believe it was his way of hinting he had met Sakamoto but we didn’t know that till later.

Wildflower from RM is a beautiful song!

Like a mantra. Hypnotic, soothing, centering. It's not the first time I've had that effect from something Suga has said. "Yoongi wants me to be happy" has gotten me through many super tough days, from a Christmas greeting video years ago (2016-2018? he's wearing a red & white striped sweater). Maybe sounds super delulu, but they have a knack for making their messages feel super personal and directed at you specifically, so it really helps me.

just a side note, this is a fan made mv, it had parts of a live performance yoongi did for his documentary thats amazing, also when he sang it live on tour he played the piano to it which was such a lovely tribute to mr sakamoto, and of course he sounded amazing every time!

One thing I've noticed in Yoongi's songwriting and composition is that dynamics are really important to him. A lot of his songs will have that forward-driven feel, ending immediately after a climax. As you said for this one, it shows in his rap being softer at the beginning and culminating in the more aggressive, forward-postured tone. Instrumentally, he'll bring in orchestral elements or electric guitar towards the middle-end to emphasize that movement as well. Even during BTS's early years, he would play with squeaks, laughter, pauses, growls in his raps as well. Woosung is great too - he and his band The Rose do a lot of rock (maybe pop-rock?) - Back To Me is a recent one that's a really solid anthem-type song. I've listened to Ryuchi Sakamoto occasionally, but mostly within Spotify playlists - I'm going to dive deeper into his work this weekend.

Woosung's collaboration in "Snooze" with Suga is truly remarkable, showcasing their exceptional talent and creativity. The way they seamlessly blend their unique styles and voices in this collaboration is simply awe-inspiring. It's a testament to their artistry and musical prowess, and it undoubtedly deserves high praise and admiration.💜 + 🌹

Woosung is from a band called the Rose that is kind of famous for their hauntingly beautiful ballads, but also has some more upbeat rock songs. The Rose has 2 main vocalists and both of them are wonderful. Their earlier songs are mostly in Korean but for the last 2 albums mostly songs in English. Woosung was born in South Korea, but grew up in California and didn’t have to do mandatory military service because he is a U.S. citizen, so while the other members of The Rose were in the military he released solo music that is a bit more funky than The Rose’s usual stuff. They also write their own music. If you are interested in hearing, I recommend She’s in the Rain (from their earlier stuff), Back to Me or Childhood or Cure (from their more recent music), Phase Me or Face (from Woosung’s solo music)

I listen to this song because of the singer, he is so fckn amazing, the voice is something so magical😭😭😭😭

Yaaaaay! Thank you for this! Snooze is such a perfect choice. I hope you listen to Life Goes On or SDL too. Our boy has been working on his singing vocals. Woosung is indeed an amazing vocalist and has solo work as well as with his band The Rose. I think you'd enjoy reacting to them too.

This part where Yoongi repeatedly says that everything will be okay made me cry unexpectedly when I listened to snooze for the very first time. At first I found it kind of weird and nearly annoying but after he said it like 10 times I was sobbing. So yeah..I guess I needed to hear that. He just knows what people need our Agust D 💜

I love this song so much... its meaning and the story of how it came about. I love that you spot how he uses audible breath as another instrument... It's really his signature, I think, a sound that's very much his. I think he also plays with pitch a lot more than many rappers, and adds some interesting cries (not so much in this one). Yoongi really can rap for a long time on one breath. We joke about him not needing to breathe 😂 but yes, he breaks it up differently when it's live. Woosung's voice is perfect for this song, it's almost got a sobbing quality. He's an incredible singer. So emotive. This song is just gorgeous, and Yoongi backs it up with action too... We've gotten to see him talking with younger artists on his own show, and he's so invested in making sure they have the support BTS didn't. He's breaking down barriers. It makes me very proud. 다 괜찮아질 거야 💜 sometimes we all need to hear it sixteen times in a row

For RM: 'Wildflower' with YouJeen. You will be blown away

Ryuchi Sakamoto was someone that Suga looked up to and admired. In the Road to DDay movie you go to see more of Suga meeting him, it is magical. Even though he has passed, his music lives on. And Suga has introduced his fans to him also.Suga's first love was a piano. I really like this song, the whole album is good.

Check out Woosung from The Rose singing ILYSB one of my favourites. Snooze is also one I play almost everyday. It's so good.

I cannot wait to see "Suga - Agust D Tour "D-DAY" the movie. 💜 I love Woosung's voice and tone. Love his solo stuff especially the EP "Moth" as well as anything from "The Rose" (the band he is in). So happy Yoongi got to work with one of his idols. Ryuichi after meeting Yoongi was quote as saying "Although he is a top idol, when we talked, I felt he was a humble and cool young man who was serious about his music. It was to the point that I wondered if he had any other hobbies other than thinking about music."

I wasn't expecting to need Kleenex for this reaction! Thank you, great song. Suga got into music because of Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence. He's said he used to take samples from Sakamoto's music to create his first songs. Sakamoto has been one of his biggest musical influences and he said he was so honored he got to meet and work with him on this song. I didn't know much about Woosung or The Rose before this collaboration. There are many songs that show off his vocals but some of my favorites are She's in the Rain and a cover of ILYSB.

Such a perfect song to begin with!! For RM I'd recommend "Wildflower" from his Indigo album, and for j hope he actually just released an ep with 6 songs, from there I'd recommend "i don't know", or "Arson" from his Jack in the box album

Thank you for showing such a sincere reaction. The song is so much more bittersweet with the departure of mr Sakamoto 😢 Yoongi used to visit a small theatre in his neighborhood that only played 'The Last Emporer'. He was exposed to his music and would later use his samples when he began making music himself. In the Disney documentary 'Suga: Road to D-Day' you'll see him visiting him in Japan and they talk about music, life and this song. There is a short video on his Instagram where he plays 'Merry Christmas Mr.Lawrence' so beautiful (it's the one where he faces a window on the left, behind a piano)

SUGA/A gust D is phenomenal. He is hands down the best rapper❤️ He’s so incredibly talented

Suga has outstanding breath management. Fast and precise rap, his pronounce even get better the faster he goes. In live is incredible how long and fast he can go on a single breath.

Thank you for letting us "bully" you!! Beautiful start to the rap line! RM's Wildflower is gorgeous - vocals, visuals, and lyrics. J-Hope just released a new album; most are collabs except for On the Street. Arson and More are straight up fire! Loving your reactions!

sobbing at the end of snooze is fully acceptable don't worry lol - Woosung, the lead singer from the band The Rose, also has a few solo releases and is currently active with The Rose. His voice is amazing.

Woosung of The Rose has a truly gorgeous voice. I believe although Korean he was brought up in the US. Snooze is a lovely song.

Yoongi's voice and lyrics always grab y heart, no matter what emotion he is conveying, and Woosung's voice is just pure magic

Omg this is a perfect song to dive into, such a deep meaning and such a beautiful sound

Woosung is the main vocalist of the band The Rose. They have really lovely songs which are definitely worth checking out. In SUGA's documentary Road to D-Day, there are scenes of when Yoongi visited Sakamoto, and he even played Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence for him. It was a really touching moment in the documentary. Yoongi also has a video of him practicing Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence on the piano in his Instagram profile, but you could probably find it on KZread as well if you wanted to. 😊 For the other guys in the rapline, please react to Wild Flower (RM) and More (j-hope).

you should react to The Rose (the featured artist is from this band)! they are great, I saw them live 2 weeks ago and I'm still not over their vocals!

I love the song you chose!!!! For me this song always reaches deep RIP Ryuichi 💜

Yoongi dove hard into various Lessons in 2022, including Hip Hop Dance 101, Guitar, Singing, etc. He's been the epitome of Fake It til You Make It 🤘🏼

Our little meow meow has grown up to such a deep and wide soul! I am sooo proud of him for the man and the artist he has become.

Zawsze mowilam, że Suga jest wyjątkowy.Jest wyjatkowo uzdolniony.Jego głos w zestawieniu z refrenem Woosunga i grą Sakamoto ,to arcydzieło.

I typed out a very long, thoughtful comment and KZread just... deleted it. Poof! Boo. This song is Yoongi speaking to younger artists who come after him, giving him the advice and comfort he wishes he'd had when he was starting out. He's also kind of talking to his younger self, with the "everything will be okay" line. It's what he wishes someone had said to him back then, and he doesn't want others to have to feel as alone as he did. Yoongi's been a fan of Ryuichi Sakamoto since he was a child and his parents took him to see "The Last Emperor." During the meeting you saw in the video, he got to talk to Ryuichi about how he'd influenced the way Yoongi makes music, and the kinds of music he wants to keep making as he continues his career. He even got to play "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence" for Ryuichi! In the elevator after the meeting, Yoongi seemed a bit star-struck, too. "Snooze" was the last thing Ryuichi worked on before he passed, and his daughter wrote a really sweet message for Yoongi and how her father loved working with him, and how thankful she was that Yoongi included an "RIP' tribute after the song at every concert. Yoongi even wrote an article for Commons, Ryuichi's record label, talking about his ten favorite songs: www.commmons.com/10favorites/#suga It should auto-translate via your browser. Woosung is one of two vocalists for The Rose, a Korean rock band. Both the vocalists are great! Their most popular song is "Back To Me," but I also really love "Red," "Wonder," and "Alive." Woosung also has a couple of solo albums, too. I got to see The Rose live at the Kia Forum a few months back and they were very, very fun and very good live! Definitely a great show 🙂

3:45 Yoongi's natural speaking voice is surprisingly deep. His rapping is often quite musical, and you can hear in the opening to Snooze here that he kind of speak-sings his lines, so they come out much lighter than just speaking would. I'm probably dating myself here, but Woosung's voice here reminds me SO much of Sade (Smooth Operator). As the members of BTS have moved into their next chapter and Suga's brought his Agust D trilogy to a close, he's been spending a lot of time thinking about longevity, and legacy, and what he, as a seasoned musician, might give back (or pay forward) to the next generation. I'm sure you've heard a good bit by now about how difficult BTS's trainee and debut days were, starting out. Suga is VERY MUCH against the "I suffered for my art, so you must suffer, too" mindset. He's been consciously using his position at the top of the food chain to mentor younger performers and try to improve industry conditions. He's also been using the opportunity of his Suchwita talk show to talk with *his* seniors and with well-established actors and musicians, to get the benefit of their wisdom on going the distance in the entertainment industry. (I'm pretty sure he had that conversation with Ryuichi Sakamoto, too, when he met him.) The average K-Pop group lasts 7 years; Suga has his eyes firmly set on 30-40 years. (He jokes about changing their "Bulletproof Boy Scouts" name to "Bulletproof Grandpas" and performing in nursing homes.) This song is part of Suga's legacy, and is intensely meaningful for him. When he performed it on the last day of his tour, in Seoul, in front of ARMY and his fellow BTS members and his own juniors and seniors, he became overwhelmed by emotion and broke down at the "Everything's going to be okay" mantra. ARMY sang it to him, instead. (I still can't watch that performance without crying.) I love this song SO MUCH. Thank you for reacting to it!

Captions. The lyrics to this are heartbreakingly beautiful. Its a song beggining young artists not to suffer like he did. That its alright to rest, he will have their back. The advice he offers like not to revel in the controversies of others because they may find themselves in the same position one day etc. This song really deserves the lyric breakdown. After I did a deep dive into BTS I discovered they had so so many beautiful songs. They are all different. Lyrics music. BTS has more songs with substance than most bands let alone bands that have only been together 11 years. The singer is the lead singer of THE ROSE.

Yes this is i a gem♥️ Suga is a genius, his music and his lyrics…Woosung has one of the most beautiful voices ( check out ILYSB , the band is called the Rose) . Just saw Opus, a concert film with Sakamoto, made just before he passed away. So this video is so full of emotions👌❤️💜 Thank you for a deep reaction🙏

I bawl during the d day documentary when he met Ryuichi. It was so touching the way they spoke to e/ o/ but then truly connected beyond words when they started spontaneously playing the piano back & forth. They were conversing w/ music & it was magic. I was there for the first day of the d day tour & when he played snooze w/ a memorial it felt like a gut punch cuz no one expected it

Checking Woosung vocal by you is a MUST! his cover of ILYSB by Lany is masterpiece. And Snooze is one of my all time favorite on the D-Day

Woosung is one of the two lead singers of a soft rock kpop group called The Rose. I saw them in concert last November and they were great. I would definitely recommend you check them out and create sometime. (My personal favorite song is She's in the Rain.)

You've actually made my week? month? year? I was one of the bulliers for snooze... literally thank you SO much. His music and this song is really important to me, so I loved to watch it. Thank you!

I love this song so much. Definitely my favorite from his most recent album. The song is so meaningful, the melody is amazing, yoongi is a rap God and woosung's voice and the way he sang his verses had a hauntingly beautiful quality. I'm so glad you chose this one but if you do another Agust D song I would recommend Daechwita.

I am so happy you reacted to this. What a great collaboration that is so beautiful and poignant. He is such an excellent role model to younger artists and gives great encouragement and support to them. The documentary on this album is wonderful. It was lovely to see the connection he had Ryuichi Sakomoto. Don’t worry this song makes me cry too.

I saw him in concert, and when woosong's chorus came, he'd turn away from the mic and let the audience sing that part. Being in the middle of that, with everyone singing their hearts out, was awe-inducing. Everything is gonna be okay.

Truely one of my favorite songs by Agust D ( I’m sure you have seen this but it’s Suga spelled backward and the DT is for Daegu Town, where he lived.) it’s a beautiful message and comforting song. He did this live on a Road to D Day documentary and they are just as wonderful live. Suga is a huge advocate for his juniors. Since BTS really didn’t have anyone they could go to as they were coming up, he always tries his best to support the newer idols, and is a great role model for them. Suga struggled a lot with depression and anxiety, check out his song The Last, it’s pretty powerful, and a very brave of him to put to lyrics. His trilogy: Daechwita,Haegum, and Amygdala kind of delve into his psyche, with him playing dual characters in the first two songs, with the third kind of going into how his past affected him. I really liked your reaction, and yep it’s emotional seeing the tribute to Ryuichi Sakamoto, whom Suga really admired.have fun with the rest of the rap line, they are not what you think..great lyric that make you think. BTS rap line made me appreciate rap as a genre of music I had totally dismissed.

Woosung is lead singer of the band The Rose and a solo artist as well. He's actually American but moved to Korean to pursue a music career. So both him and the band have English, Korean, and mixed songs

Woosung is the lead sing of The Rose and he has done solo songs. I love his voice. I was so excited about this collab

Suga watched The Last Emperor when he was young & was impressed by the music score that was done by Ryuichi Sakamoto. He began to love music score after that & wished that he could make a film music score, too. He has done a few OSTs now..

Kim Woo-sung, aka Sammy, is from The Rose, I was lucky enough to see them live at Wembley Ovo on Saturday they were fire! 🖤🌹💜

Woosung,s voice is so crispy,..i loooove his voice. Saw him 3 days ago in Amsterdam. The rose is the band where he is in❤❤

OH YES PLEASE MORE WOOSUNG!!!!! HES THE LEAD VOCALIST OF THE ROSE! THEYRE GREAT

Woosung is a singer and guitarist in a band called The Rose. If you wanted to hear more from him they did a live cover of I Love You So Bad one time that blew up to the point people tbought it was their song. 😅 Theyre kind of indie rock i guess. Works of their own you could try... Back to Me, Beauty and the Beast, Sorry, I.L.Y., Sour. Theyre some of my favourites.

Really, really appreciate this reaction. For the tehnical review of Suga's voice on rapping, for the quick notes on how beautiful Woosung's voice sounds and for the outmost appreciation for Ryuichi Sakamoto's music. You made me trar up too with your honest and simple show of love for something, someone

Some of my personal favorites from Woosung in The Rose are You're Beautiful, Beauty and the Beast, and Lifeline. Woosung as a soloist would be Phase Me, Face and Lazy. Phenomenal singer and band. I love their music 💜

Suga un înger frumos perfect talentat felicitări ❤❤❤❤❤

Out of all the Songs from Yoongi.. This must be my most favorite song from him. It caught all d feelings and thrown them to me on those 3-4mins.the meaning of the song woosung's voice, RSakamoto's beautiful piano melody, Yoongi's raw lyrics, everything's perfect. ❤

The Sheltering Sky, man. I'm shred to pieces every time I put it on. Every time. Ryuichi Sakamoto & Enio Morricone, Williams, Zimmer... the great cinematic composers of our time. So glad SUGA was able to collaborate with him. I think you'd like to check out Wild Flower by RM. He did it live, in a very small concert hall, the sound is quite raw. It's also a collaboration and the female singer sings so powerfully, with a Jimin-like cry at the end of her sentences too, I'd like to hear your thoughts on both her and RM's singing.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Suga as always is awesome 🔥💜♾️💟💜 The last Emperor brought me to Ryuchi Sakamoto's music.. I cried with the beauty of it 💜💜💜

Loved this reaction; for RM, I highly recommend Wildflower.

You should check out The Rose (Indie band, Woosung is a main vocalist). They have an amazing music & are truly talented. Also, super unserious. I saw them a month ago in Berlin & it was seriously out of body experience.

Please react to The Rose (Woosung’s) ‘s cover of ILSYB at Concert Culture Warehouse. Woosung’s voice and performance is amazing. For a continuation of the BTS rap line, please react to RM’s Wildflower ft. Youjeen’s incredible vocals.

Thank you for reacting to Snooze! Of course Agust D is amazing! I love Woosung and Ryuichi Sakamoto as well. I cried when I saw you cry at the end. Losing someone we respect is hard no matter how much time passes. Woosung is one of the main vocalists in the band The Rose. Their songs are all great but I love Back to Me and Eclipse. He also has great solo work. I hope you do a reaction to one of his or The Rose’s songs.

I'm obsessed with Woosung's voice in this song...

This is one of my favorite Suga collab songs for sure! WooSung is amazing, the song is beautiful, the lyrics, the performance. It's everything. 💜

Thanks for tackling this! Crying is a common reaction to it, welcome to the club. It doesn't feel like a sad song. It has maturity and strength, but I think there is just something in the music that sets you up to feel things. Also RIP Ryuichi Sakamoto ❤

Woosung's voice is a good counterpoint to SUGA's. Woosung really drags out the emotions as does Yoongi. It's so sad that Ryuichi Sakamoto has passed away. We have lost yet another musical genius. Thank you for the your insight into Agust D's music and your emotional response. Some of his work makes him cry too. He broke his heart during the last concert of the D-Day tour and I'll be taking my tissues with me when I go to see it in the cinema very soon.

I’m going to paste my comment from Patreon here to add to all of the above! Of all of Agust D / Suga / Yoongi’s collaborations to choose I’m so pleased you found this one! The combination of Ryuichi Sakamoto and Woosung is beautiful. You should check out the documentary Road to D-Day, you’ll see Suga talk about Ryuichi Sakamoto and then visit him, Suga got to meet his idol…… Woosung is a singer/electric guitarist for K-Rock/Indie band the Rose. They’re a four piece (Dojoon, keys/acoustic guitar/vocals; Jaehyeong, bass/sub vocal; Hajoon, drums/sub vocal) and have releases in both Korean and English. Please, please consider checking out more of Woosung and The Rose. I was so torn when I joined the Patreon between Ateez and The Rose for my recommendation. I’d love to hear more of your thoughts on Woosung’s voice and also Dojoon. Too hard to choose recommendations but here’s a couple: their debut Sorry, She’s in the Rain, Red or Childhood for Korean lyrics, Back to Me, You’re Beautiful or Wonder from their latest album Dual for English lyrics. I love Woosung’s solo efforts too, but I think his cover of ILYSB shows off his vocals. Also FYI - short version Min Yoongi (given Korean name romanised) Suga (stage name with BTS) Agust D (solo stage name - Suga plus DT backwards, DT for Daegu Town - his hometown)

I love Snooze so much. It makes me tear up every time. Especially when he repeats "everything is going to be alright". I guess I need to hear that sometimes. Such a beautiful song. Thank you for choosing this one. Also, Woosung has such a beautiful voice. I just love it.

This is a masterpiece, 3 incredible artist in 1 song its just amazing

This was my introduction to Woosung, and all I could think was, who is THAT?! His voice is almost haunting! He is the lead singer for The Rose who I HIGHLY recommend. Amazing indie rock/pop band. Their new album is in all English. You want two sides of a coin they’ve got it. Listen to Back to Me and then ILYSB (which is a cover but WOW) or She’s in the Rain. They are one of my favorite bands.

I absolutely love this song. It's such an amazing collaboration between all three artists so I'm really glad you reacted to it.

I think you would enjoy analysing Woosung’s voice. His voice is very captivating on its own and his singing style has interesting characteristics. I started following The Rose’s work because of this song and interestingly all the members of the band are really good vocalists

Love Agust D, Suga, Min Yoongi! I have so much respect for him and his talent. Love this song. And Woosung…wow! The composition and talent in Snooze is beautiful and so well done. I’ll have to go find more Ryuichi Sakamoto now. Enjoyed your video!

Suga rapping goes with what he is talking about.

Sam, you made me cry, again despite me having listened to this song countless times

Check out Cypher Part 2. Yoongi’s rap on a single breath is crazy!💜🦋

Woosung has one of the sexiest voice. I 1st discovered him (and The Rose) thru their cover of ILYSB. Snooze is one of my favorite from the D-Day album. ❤

WOOSUNG’s voice is so unique - check out his other stuff. Solo and with his band The Rose.

When he performed this on his last concert in Seoul he cried. It was so beautiful and emotional 😢

For RM I recommend *Forgetful* to look at his vocal skills and I recommend *Wild Flower* just in general (There are live performances for both) For j-hope I recommend *on the street* to look at his vocals and I also really recommend *More* Since you couldn't really see Yoongi's vocal skills in this one I also recommend *People* and *Amygdala* and *Life goes on* for him

Omg one of my favourite songs on the D-Day album, when I saw Woosung and Suga collab I almost screamed and Mr Sakamoto, may he rest in peace, was such a legendary addition which all made the song a masterpiece. Woosung is one of the members and vocalists of the band The Rose (I was at their concert in Poland, Cracow on the 15th March, it was freaking great, already miss them). I recommend checking their album Dual and older songs like Beauty and Beast, Woosung also has some solo songs I believe, anyway, they are definitely worth listenig to. Oh and he is friends with Suga😁

This is such a good song musically that I could listen to it all day and the lyrics are just as great as well. Woosung's voice is just a perfect addition to this song as well. He is part of a band called The Rose. I suggest listening to Sour, Childhood, Back to Me and I Dont Know You. This band gives such a beautiful message in their music it feels like therapy whenever I listen to anything from them. Hope you are enjoying your journey through the BS rabbit hole so far and hope you get to check out The Rose as well one day. Have a good day/night!

This song introduced me to The Rose - a group Woosung is one of the lead singers. You should check them out. His voice is to die for :)
