K-pop superband BTS member Suga on Friday released his first official solo album D-Day, under a stage name for his individual project, Agust D. Unveiled simultaneously with the album was the music video for its lead track, "Haegeum", reports Yonhap. When his unofficial mix tapes are included, D-Day marks Suga's first solo project in three years since D-2 in 2020. The album also marks the final installment of the Agust D trilogy, which began with his mix tapes Agust D (2016) and D-2. The new album consists of 10 songs, including Haegeum, the pre-released song "People Pt. 2 (Feat. IU)", "D-Day". BTS’ Suga Drops Formidable ‘Being’ Concept Photos for D-Day! Are We Getting Agust D As Detective or Mafia Boss? Who Knows?!

"Huh?! (Feat. J-Hope)", "Amygdala", "SDL", "Interlude: Dawn' and "Snooze (Feat. Ryuichi Sakamoto, Kim Woo-sung of The Rose)". Also among the 10 was "Life Goes On", in which Suga reinterpreted the band's hit song of the same name according to his own sensibilities, according to BigHit Music. The album carries the message of prioritising 'me' and 'now' in an era where there is an overwhelming amount of fast and extensive information. Suga wrote and composed all the songs on the album and took charge of its overall production process to share his sincere personal story. BTS’ Suga Drops Compellingly Spine Tingling ‘Agust D D-DAY Glitch Film’ As His Solo Debut Draws Closer!

The music video for "Haegeum" features a tightly woven storyline and dramatic elements that are highlighted in an overall atmosphere reminiscent of a film noir.

Suga plans to go on his first individual world tour, titled 'Suga | Agust D-Day Tour,' starting with Belmont Park in San Diego this coming Wednesday and Thursday (local time), which will also take him to other cities in the United States, as well as Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, South Korea and Japan.
