The American entertainment outlet Variety introduced Suga as someone who showcases the burning energy, musicality, and performance skills he has developed over the past 10 years.
Nylon, an American media outlet, commented, “As the first BTS member to embark on a solo tour, Suga confidently performs his own show without being overwhelmed by the pressure.
