BTS’ J-Hope recently reassured fans about fellow member SUGA’s well-being during his ongoing solo tour, HOPE ON THE STAGE. The comforting update came during his Brooklyn concert on March 13, where a fan asked about SUGA. J-Hope responded with a simple yet heartfelt, "Yeah," confirming that SUGA is doing good.
This brief but meaningful interaction brought a wave of relief to BTS’ dedicated fanbase, ARMY. Many have been concerned about SUGA’s prolonged silence since he began his mandatory military service in September 2023. Unlike previous years, SUGA also didn’t share his usual birthday message with fans on March 9, which added to their worries.

The concern grew further when SUGA’s name became involved in controversy surrounding a DUI incident, leaving fans anxious about his well-being. J-Hope’s reassuring words, though brief, provided comfort, showing that SUGA is doing okay despite the tough times.
