Prior to joining Big Hit Entertainment in 2010, Suga was active as an underground rapper under the name Gloss. One of his earliest known songs is the track "518-062", which he wrote and produced in commemoration of the Gwangju Uprising.[1] Initially signing on with the label as a producer, Suga eventually debuted as a member of BTS in June 2013. His first solo song for the group was "Intro: The Most Beautiful Moment in Life", the rap opening track from their third Korean-language extended play (EP) The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 1 (2015), released as an animated video trailer on YouTube in April of that year. He has since written and performed four other solo songs in the band's discography: "Intro: Never Mind" from The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, Pt. 2 (2015), "First Love" from Wings (2016), "Trivia: Seesaw" from Love Yourself: Answer (2018), and "Interlude: Shadow" from Map of the Soul: 7 (2020).
The rapper continued working on solo music in between band-related commitments, ultimately developing the alter ego "Agust D" (derived from the initials DT, short for his birthplace Daegu Town, and "Suga" spelled backwards) as a medium for releasing music that did not have to take charts or trends into consideration. His first mixtape, the eponymous Agust D (2016), featured an angrier, more aggressive sound and style in comparison to his usual work for BTS. Two singles, "Agust D" and "Give It To Me", were released in promotion of the project, both accompanied by music videos. Initially a free release, the mixtape was made available commercially on download and streaming platforms in 2018.[2] Four years later, the rapper put out his second mixtape D-2 (2020). The project's only single, "Daechwita", premiered the same day as the mixtape's release, also accompanied by a music video. Given a commercial release, the mixtape debuted at number 11 on the Billboard 200 in the United States, becoming the highest-charting release by a Korean solo artist in Billboard chart history at the time. In April 2023, Suga released his debut solo studio album D-Day as Agust D. Described as the third and possibly final installment in his Agust D trilogy of works,[3] the record featured collaborations with BTS bandmate J-Hope, South Korean vocalist IU, Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, and indie rock singer Woosung of The Rose.[4]

| "That That" | 2022 | Psy | Yong-seok Choi (Lumpens) | Set in a Western-themed town in the middle of a desert, Psy dances in cowboy attire with a troop of similarly dressed dancers while performing the song. When Suga appears, the two have a showdown as Suga raps his verse. They then dance together in a crowded saloon, a car, and outdoors. At one point, Psy is seen wearing a costume from the "Gangnam Style" music video, but that version of him is seemingly knocked out by Suga and passes out in the rapper's arms. | [117] |
| "People Pt. 2"[S] | 2023 | IU | Woogie Kim | Agust D spends time alone in his home, journaling, writing the song, and with a pet dog. He is also seen recording the song in a studio, and enjoying the scenic view outside his home. IU does not appear in the video. A brief black and white clip of Suga explaining the song's creation and the message behind its lyrics plays after the video's end. | [118] |
| "Haegeum"[S] | None | Yong-seok Choi (Lumpens) | Presented as a mafia film in the film noir style, Agust D plays two versions of himself at conflict with one another: the Being (a police detective) and the Exister (a gangster). | [119] | |
| "Amygdala"[S] | Agust D repeatedly relives the memory of a traumatic car accident while trapped in a room that represents his mind. A past version of his self tries to break him out of the room. | [120] | |||
| "Lilith" | Halsey | Henry Hobsen | Filmed inside the Chapelle des Jésuites in Cambrai, France, the music video is a collaboration with Blizzard Entertainment for the release of Diablo IV. Halsey enters the candlelit cathedral dressed in a hooded black cloak while performing the song. She eventually removes the cloak, revealing a sorceress costume underneath, and is attacked by arrows that inflict bloody lesions about her body. Suga appears halfway through the video, dressed in a dark robe and surrounded by a haze of red smoke, and performs his verse in a shadowy room. Halsey transforms into the game's protagonist, the Blessed Mother Lilith, at the end. | [121] |
- Suga appeared in a three-minute long short film directed by Yong-seok Choi of Lumpens, titled BTS Wings Short Film #4 First Love, released in September 2016 in promotion of BTS' fourth studio album Wings.[122]
