On the work front, Suga released his solo album 'D-Day' under his other name Agust D and also went on a concert tour, which became a huge success.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Suga revealed that the theme of 'D-Day' is liberation. He said, "In the past, I knew what that theme meant, and I figured out my thoughts were already resolved in the process of recording it. There was this K-drama called My Liberation Notes [from 2022] that did really well. I had started working on the album three years ago — and then I noticed that it really matched thematically with the drama. I felt and hoped that people were looking for more stories, more discussion on this topic of liberation.”

He added, "Once I asked myself about what my definition of liberation is, I started unpacking that idea of liberation more (through my songs). I think viewers will think it’s very fun and entertaining, considering the other kinds of promotions I’ve done. I have confidence. In the video, I’m just living very freely."
He also released his documentary 'Suga: Road To D-Day', which gave an insight into how he worked on his album and talked about finding a new dream when you have achieved everything you wanted in your life.
