Beyond the stage: discover the other noble and important profession that BTS member Suga is interested in
Currently, BTS can be considered one of the most influential artists internationally. The group, formed by Jin, Sucks, RM, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkookhas a huge legion of fans, who fill any event related to the boy group, in addition to being the main people responsible for ensuring that the group is always at the top of the music charts.
The group is currently on hiatus so that the members can complete their mandatory military service in South Korea, and will only reunite in full in 2025, when everyone is discharged. However, even though they are away from the stage, the idols’ releases continue to be successful, as if they were not on hiatus.
Due to their enormous success, it is extremely difficult to imagine the septet following any profession other than that of singers, however, the stars have already revealed in some interviews what they would like to do if they did not follow the path to stardom – where one of them even stated that he dreams of alternating another career with his life as a singer.
Licensed Therapist
The member in question is Min Yoongithe Suckswho revealed in the book “Beyond the Story: 10 Year Record of BTS” (via Koreaboo), that he also has dreams of becoming a licensed therapist.
“I have two dreams: one is to be an old man with white hair, still standing on stage, playing guitar and singing, and the other is to become a licensed psychological therapist,” the star says in the book.
The work highlights that psychology has become an interest for Sucksas this science helps him understand and express his emotions through music, something that, for example, can be noticed in the track “Interlude: Shadow”, present in the album “Map of the Soul: 7”, from 2020, where the idol reflects on fame, and the internal conflicts that success can bring him.
Second Yoongi“The big reason I studied psychology was because it is very useful for my music. There is a lot to be gained from learning about the formal definitions of emotions.” The rapper also states in the book that his aspiration to become a professional therapist also comes with the desire to help other people in the industry, who may be going through similar situations to those he has gone through in his life, and that psychology helped him.
Suckshowever, understands that obtaining the license is not easy, and may take time, but states that “I would really like to obtain the license someday. Because I want to help those who will come after me and who will do similar work to ours”.
