It is said long before SUGA had his K-pop dream, he started writing and composing his own songs. Just at the age of 13, he was inspired by Epik High and wanted to have a career in music. Before being signed, he was an underground rapper and was active under the name Gloss. He was also a part of the D-Twon hip-hop crew and produced a powerful song about the Gwangju uprising in 2010.

At the age of 17, in 2010, he was signed with BIGHIT MUSIC (then BIGHIT Entertainment). Originally, he joined as a music producer but then trained for 3 years with J-Hope and RM before making his debut with BTS in 2013. 

In the following years, he was recognized for his outstanding rapping skills and abilities to portray emotions through his writing. Over the years, SUGA has produced, composed, and written many tracks for BTS albums. 

In April 2023, he made his official solo debut under the moniker Agust D with his studio album D-DAY and Haegeum serving as its title track. However, his solo tracks under BTS started arriving years ago. Some of his songs before his official solo debuts are Daechwita, Intro: The Most Beautiful Moment in Life, First Love, and more.
