About Suga's D-Day songs

D-Day was a good choice for listeners to begin with as it added a new energy to his solo album. On the other hand, Haegeum consisted of touching lyrics while he went rogue in the music video. Suga was seen doing action sequences in the Haegeum music video and was seen in a different avatar. In the end of the music video, the BTS rapper paid tribute to Heath Ledger's legendary character Joker. Snooze was an emotional ballad that narrated Yoongi's vulnerable side and hardships.
