Director Reacts - Agust D 'AMYGDALA' MV

[@laurathomas9904]

I watched and couldn't believe he trusted us with his truth, he most vulnerable and painful stuff. Although it hurts to see and I cry every time, I feel so honored. Hugs to all.

[@mimiloveee9]

Now ppl can maybe see why he has always seemed so "cold" it wasn't that at all it was him being trapped in his trauma it breaks my heart but he isn't anymore ..it's clear by the lightness of him & the smile in his face this last year or so that he is/has processed this all but it is still heartbreaking 💔 I love these 7 boys sooooo damn much 😭💜😭💜😭💜😭

[@dzieckoziemi]

Exactly this. It's heartbreaking and really difficult to watch this MV knowing it is his story, but also... he shared it with us because this is something of the past that he had overcome. I feel so proud of Yoongi, as an artist and as a person, for going through so much in his life and coming out of this victorious. His art always feels so cathartic to me. It makes me emotional a lot of times but it also gives me sense of comfort, knowing I'm not the only one struggling. And it IS possible to get through it. "Future's gonna be okay, okay okay Look in the mirror and I see no pain..." 💜

Min Yoongi speaks to me in a way that not many artists have ever spoken to me. This guy has a way with words and storytelling that paints such a vivid picture. BTS does too but there's just something extra about Yoongi that I can't really explain. This guy man.

[@MicheleDoenges]

The amygdala is a small, almond shaped part of the brain that is responsible for anger, emotional pain, trauma and depression, right? In the last season of In the Soop, we see Namjoon and Yoongi reading a book called Almond, which discusses the amygdala and its effects on mental health, and then, in the Amygdala MV, we see green-hoodie Yoongi munching on almonds, and later, when we see handfuls of pills flash on the screen, they flash to a handful of almonds. Yoongi is so cool.

I’m a Psychology Prof in UK, proud & thankful for this MV. Smile as it proves he’s at peace with his past & able to share it, as it was. All whom maybe struggling, let this motivate you to get help, this is proof you’ll heal too. He’s not just done this for himself or to let Army in. He’s sending & raising awareness on mental health - Don’t Suffer In Silence! I’m livid as this MV does not require a, ‘trigger warning’. It even got me teary eyed watching - he used vulnerability to help save lives, in hope mental health isn’t a taboo subject especially in Asia!🇰🇷has the highest suicide & mental health % globally for the last 8 year’s & 87% young men finish military services with PTSD!🇰🇷Gov refuse any advice from foreign countries who offer help. 1 death is 1 death too many.

It was the right choice. Yoongi gave us so much hope and resilience with this album. I mean - life is a struggle against loneliness, and it's okay if you cry sometimes... You are already more than enough to be loved. He says it so plainly, but you know he means every word. If you're in the middle of this struggle, I'm glad you can talk about it, and see yourself in his music, and find strength in it. That really matters. Thank you for sharing it. 💜

[@storiesinscenery]

I read a comment somewhere (Twitter?) and the poster said Yoongi is showing us this cycle of trying to heal ourselves from trauma and trying to keep ourselves from repeating the mistakes of the past. In Haegum the newest Agust D doesn't have a scar, which means at some point he dodged a blow he had never been able to dodge (learn from) before. It was shocking to realize the scar was self inflicted in this video but it makes perfect sense. Moving through our anger and depression, learning from our mistakes, letting go, and finding peace are all beautifully represented here. (No one has mentioned the Yoongi eating almonds (in the green sweatshirt at the beginning) and watching this process unfold in his head but I take it to mean (personal opinion) he can now review these traumas with some peace and accept that he's become the man he is because of it, not in spite of it.) I had the same reaction you did and have to watch this with some caution but it was brilliantly done and I thank him for sharing the raw process of his healing with us. Thanks Roscoe. 💜

[@donitapolk9413]

Yes, thank you for mentioning green sweater Yoongi. This was a question forming in the back of my mind since my emotions were at the forefront 😭(it would have moved forward once the emotional response had calmed down😢) - what purpose does the green sweater Yoongi watching serve? He's watching himself unfold; yes, thank you for this comment. 💜

[@AgiLovesCandys]

@@donitapolk9413 I think yeah watching himself, but also there is a korean book him, Namjoon and I think Jin also have been seen reading during quarantine, Almond is the name. I don't have the courage to read it, but in there the main character has a small amygdala developed and is said not to feel emotions and trying to navigate that and his mom made him as small eat almonds, because the amygdala is almond shaped, in hopes of his enlarging. (correct me anyone if I'm wrong) So I think it also shows him trying to feel something, as with depression usually the apathy that comes, makes one feel like one is stopping to have emotions and it's just so desperate not to be in such limbo.

Just letting you know the car crash that’s happening in the video actually happened to Yoongi. In the early days of BTS when their management was still struggling with money, he took up a job as a delivery driver to support himself and the guys (who were all living in a dorm together) this car crash also caused his now shoulder problems. I love Yoongis lyrics and the live performance is absolutely heart wrenching he’s singing his soul out 💜🖤

I don't know about anyone else but the song and MV have made me revisit my own lifes traumas since I heard it. I am changed from those experiences but still here.

One night I came home and sat in my car and opened up my mouth to scream. It was only a fraction of a second of time… my throat still felt raw the next day. This happened soon after we found out my mom’s cancer came back. Since then and until some time after her death my mind was filled with silent screams. I F**king LOVE Yoongi for this song. It takes so much strength to purposefully dig up memories of traumatic times in your past because when those memories come at you, they are the most vivid. 💜

[@humera3299]

I know the agony of silent screams all too well. Watching my mother fight cancer three times, only to lose her in the end, was a trauma that shaped me from a young age. I had to grow up too fast, being her rock and strength, but the weight of that responsibility left its own scars. I'm still unraveling the pain and grief, but I hold onto hope that someday, the wounds will heal, and I'll find peace. Your story resonates deeply with me, and I'm here to support you through your own struggles.

[@tingtingboll]

This is art. This is how music speaks to the soul. This is the second time I've listened to this song. I put my headphones down while streaming to avoid it because it hits me like a truck.

[@JackInTheBox0294]

Yes

[@habersmashery]

It was great to hear a Reacts video from someone familiar with more of Yoongi's work. I think this is the first time we’ve seen Yoongi depict his past self as a caring and innocent person who experienced suffering (rather than a dangerous enemy that needs to be destroyed), and wants to save them. In the Daechwita and Haegum MVs, we see this repeating theme of trying to kill off your old self when they become too dangerous or hurtful. Amygdala breaks that cycle. This Yoongi is very connected to his ‘past self’ who had the car accident, and even tries to reach out to him. Right at the end, when the rain starts, the past self sees him and runs to try and rescue him (although of course it’s impossible - the accident is set in stone and neither of them can escape it. They're stuck in their timelines, on opposite sides of the same door). They fail, but both the past and present versions really care for and try to help each other, which makes me think he's come to see himself in a more compassionate way over the years.

[@Kapplastavar]

My mother underwent around 8 heart surgeries as I grew up. Those specific lines hit like a punch in my face 💜 It’s so healing to have a song that addresses this. Stay strong and don’t forget to ask for support if needed. (My mom is fine today 🙏🏻)

[@CamargoNati]

@@CaTLoVeR9289 nope theres a live the November 21 2020, he said, “It almost doesn’t hurt at all now and the pain has gone down a lot. The first three days after surgery were really painful. I couldn’t sleep well. I’m sleeping well now and there are no big problems" meaning the surgery really helped. that was the whole intention for the surgery, to relieve the pain, stop taking medicines, and have a better quality of life.

[@materidouska286]

Min Yoongi is the most brave musician and I have ever known. The way he lays out all traumas and hardships in his life just to show us its ok to hurt and ache and bleed and get over it, that we are not alone in our suffering, that he is offering support and comfort. My respect for him has been growing exponentially. What an artist, what a human, what a soul.

[@merritt0729]

I've been listening to D-Day more & more recently, especially since I saw Yoongi live at the end of April. Now I feel that, lyrically, he's the member that conveys feelings I can relate to the most. Obviously, we have vastly different lives, but seeing & hearing his emotional journey only reinforces the idea that we're all human dealing with our problems the best way we know how. I appreciate him for showing this because a lot of the time, it feels lonely when you're going through these internal struggles. A person like Yoongi putting his reality out into the world means so much, not only for his own healing but for the rest of us who don't feel seen. Ahh, I really love him so much. He's so talented and amazing, I hope he continues to grow and heal.

[@JoobieLoobieSoobie]

I don’t remember where I read it - maybe it was Yoongi himself? But they mentioned the philosophy of stoicism and how this song and video reflect it. Specifically, the stoic idea of healing oneself by taking a stark, unblinking look at painful emotions in order to remove them from the mind. No avoidance, not masking them with fake happiness, not making them share the stage with other feelings. Hence, no fake happy ending or resolution in this MV because ridding oneself of painful memories is an ongoing process. Looking at it this way, it is even more impressive. Instead of focusing on the unopened door, we can see the effort to get there as the key theme, and be strengthened by that instead of crushed by the struggle.

[@MariaChavez-ey5sr]

He’s so raw with us and it’s beautifully sadly relatable. It helps knowing he’s in a better place and proud of this song in particular.

[@61crispy]

This is so raw, so powerful. This song found its way into my heart the minute I heard it. The fact that he felt safe enough to share this with us. None of us likes to share our darkest fears and secrets, but I feel he has done so much to “normalise” these mental battles that we all go through. The music video is so incredible.

Everything about the music video. The scream and distortion in the chorus, the crawl, the fast, chaotic cuts, and the bit that I lost it at was the true meaning behind his scar from daechwita... All of it is faultless. Yoongi is such an incredible person who is so so much stronger than we all think.

As someone who has had to overcome a great deal of trauma, I get it. All of it.

[@onyabeia832]

The amygdala is commonly thought to form the core of a neural system for processing fearful and threatening stimuli , including detection of threat and activation of appropriate fear-related behaviors in response to threatening or dangerous stimuli.. This is really hard for me as an OG. The dark room is the represention of his mind ( in depress mode) I think. There he remembers all the darkest moment of his life. We as a OG ARMY knew about the shoulder of course, the self harmed, the suicide attempt, the mum heart surgery but all this was before BTS debut. Now the scene where he's trying to get out and he couldn't. Remind me of the only time he couldn't perform and was stuck on the bathroom floor crying. And he couldn't make himself leave the bathroom at the concert venue even to perform. Saddest day of my ARMY life. That concert was stop after 2 songs too many thing was going on. One member was at the hospital, Suga locked himself in the bathroom. Member were crying, ARMY was crying. Horrible memory. Suga after that wrote a letter asking for forgiveness and that he is ashamed and want to forget that day (something along those lines.) but it represent also him trying to overcome his depression, wanting badly but couldn't. Thank god his feeling much better. Look how far he comes from having panic attacks to touring on his own. I'm crying for so many reason.

[@absirl]

Min Yoongi has such a powerful, painful and vulnerable story. For those that don't know, when he was a trainee, he had a delivery job where he got in an accident that severely injured his shoulder. He was shamed for choosing to be an idol. He has fought so many battles and almost gave up so many times. We first saw the scar in Daechwita, and this was almost a back story of how his scars were self inflicted. He fought so hard to save himself. The amygdala is what stores memory and protects us from pain. "My amygdala, please save me" - he's asking for his brain to protect him from the pains of his past. During his last concert, you see him finally open the door and close it behind him. He finally got out. He finally found peace. There are few people that deserve respect in the kpop industry, but Yoongi deserves respect and the BIGGEST apology. He is my lotus flower and he reminds me that we are so much more than our darkest moments.

You know, we suffer, but when time passes we realize that our scars have become an achievement, in his Yoongi's case it was the songs that today he talks about his past traumas in. What if suffering is the path that all rappers have been through? What if Yoongi hadn't had depression, anxiety and social phobia? What if he hadn't had an accident? What would your songs be based on? What would he be today? he wouldn't be the same Min Yoongi as he is today, this proves how past traumas shape our mentality and make us who we are today.

I'm so proud and happy that Min Yoongi took the best decision and stayed. His music has always healed me but this time I hope that his own music healed him the way he needed to. I hope we armys could heal him too by just supporting him and sending him love

[@iamb_4u908]

Yoongi has always been open about his mental health struggles, and I respect him so much for it. Especially in a country like Korea, where talking about mental health is so taboo. He's such an inspiration, and I try to emulate him: recovering out loud, to give a voice to those who can't speak.

[@Bludreamgirl]

ohhhhh..... I thought I was done crying today ♡ SO the PTSD dream sequence leading into "the scene" destroyed me. To relive something every day, doing anything you can to distract yourself from the pain in your mind. SH, can be like any other addiction (I like that he depicted this too with the pills and the uphill climb that you pointed out). it is soothing to watch the wounds heal and close, it's soothing to be numb. It's like recieving closure that you will never get. Even the scars can be soothing. Yoongi said that this song is essentially a goodbye to Agust D that he is sharing with us. He doesn't even know if he'll continue use the surname again after the tour, and this is the final mixtape in the agust D trilogy, but we will always have suga and yoongi. Thank you for such a raw reaction...♡

Anyone with past or present trauma can relate to this song and video. I’m 52 still trying to escape my traumatic experiences. They keep coming and I wonder why I keep wanting to live. If I didn’t have my kids and husband, I’d be dust in the wind. But living for them is easy. Living for myself is a little more complicated. Knowing you’re not alone is important. This is why I adore Yoongi. He’s always been my favorite member of BTS. And his solo projects are fantastic!!! Army mom forever! 💜💜💜🫰🏼

[@margeluna7155]

I'm crying watching your review. The first time I watched this I was devastated, actually seeing the bits and pieces of his stories evwn though he mentioned them a long time ago. Watching it like this was heartbreaking. Yet in a true Min Yoongi way, he got through them all... I cry for him, I'm moved how you reacted to the MV and I cry for my own experiences and how I wish to get through them like Yoongi did. Thank you for your reaction 💜

[@jaynegreen7097]

Having gone through trauma....I personally feel like he visually showing not only his trauma but how a feeling like that can be visual..so to all ppl who say get over it need to see this mv...yoongi is not only a genius lyrically .. But he has been amazing brave to share his life with us ❤ i just adore him xx

[@whitefox2316]

The beauty of this song is I feel like anyone can relate to it.doesn't have to be a car accident like what yoongi had to go through just something that rocked you or multiple something's we all have our demons y'know and this song at least to me is motivation to fight whenever those demons come knocking beautiful work I'm so proud of him

[@theadrenalinefreak]

Seeing a someone else crying real tears to a song that means so much to me that I've also cried so much to just hits different. You can really tell how much this videos effects people

[@yannipadilla3465]

Suga has inspired me so much to continue moving forward! His life is exemplary!

[@kristinebute44]

I cried. We all go through these emotions. Life is not so light an easy, but still beautiful. Youngi is the best. He is so young ,but at the same time very old and experienced soul. I adore his talants and ability to be so open minded and clear vision. Thanks Agust D.

[@gracielaperezsilver7239]

Trying to scape painful memories and still trapped in them. He is a genius and he let us know he is as human as we all are. With pain and fears and hope.

[@joy518]

the song is fantastic but the video is a emotional artistic masterpiece!!! this was also a conceptually award winning work of art. i love the contrast of the black/grey room that is his brain and the bright colors of the real world. thank you for your reaction. the songs 'deachwita, 'heageum and amygdala go together, they are his complete story. suga just smashed it out of the park with his sold out concert tour ''d day and album sales that in 1 day....24 hours sold over 1 million physical copies on the day of release.💜

[@mik7x7]

Agonizante, surpreendente. Suga se entregou neste trabalho, este álbum está excepcional e AMYGDALA é tão verdadeiro que ficamos em choque imaginando tanto sofrimento, tantas provações, tudo o que ele passou e suportou . É mais uma vez uma grande lição de vida. Como admiro ！

[@conniegheer576]

Hugs you, Captain Roscoe 💜💜💜💜💜 I fell asleep last night with 'I don't know your name' on repeat in my head...woke up this morning with 'I don't know your name' still repeating. This song has done something to us.

[@pupilholmes]

Naturally, I cried with all my heart! As long as I was watching the video, my tears did not stop. Yoongi’s words touched my heart and soul and expressed what was inside me and I felt his pain and feelings because I went through the same he went through from the accident i had from depression, sadness and the desire to commit suicide from childhood trauma, but inside me is a personality that wants to live and be happy and get rid of everything The pain, I resist every day and try to become stronger and pray to get rid of all the past and the bad thoughts that never leave my mind. It is really difficult and only those who are going through it feel it. Thank you Yoongi 💜

[@leahona2803]

That's the thing with Yoongi's "Amygdala". Every time I listen to it.. even the first time I listened to it. It made me feel this unexplainable heavy feeling in my chest. Considering that I don't totally understand the meaning behind every detail. It just feels a different kind of pain by just listening how he sang it. It is a masterpiece. It never fails to make me feel the same emotion every time.

[@manhaesleticia]

Amazing lecture! Thats exactly what it means. Everytime i watch this mv i feel like suffocating. Perfect.

[@olgastrogonova9975]

AgustD/Suga/Min Yoon-gi is Genius! Every single song he composed is the masterpiece! His soul shines through his lyricks,raw feelings and passion in performance . It makes me cry ...

[@syakila4959]

Somehow it reminds me of that one concert when he spotted his parents in the crowd and did a full bow of respect, sobbing. This MV and lyrics breaks me. 😭

[@ИринаШерхунаева-ч9и]

💔😩😢

[@MagickSprite]

He made it. He opened the door and walked through it. It was a perfect end to his tour. I was a cheering and crying when he did that. However the fact they hit us with the “Hello, this is BigHit Music…” less than 24 hours was a serious gut punch.

[@kathryn8462]

suga's amygdala saved my pain, he put out exactly what i felt for 8 years. i held my tears back in this song

[@koreanbigminion7344]

As someone who struggles with trauma of my own (r**e, physical and emotional abuse and having to hide how my mentality was affected) this song hit so hard for me. Ive spent so long as the "happy and funny" friend that collapses the second the door shuts when im alone. This made me seek out help for myself and im starting to feel better a day at a time. He did an amazing job with the lyrics and imagery of this song. I just hope he knows that.

[@kruemmelmonsterliebtkekse183]

For the people who don't know, the amygdala is a small part of your brain that contains the memories , so that's why he's asking his amygdala for help (English is not my 1st language so I can't explain it better but u find good information online about the amygdala) . Also om his Dday concerts liek the encore onse he was finally able to open this door on stage, I guess it was at the very last one, so he healed himself during yhe whole concerts (which u could also see in the concert by his emotions) and I guess that's also brilliant story telling

[@Zerbon]

I can't give full credit to the editor here bc obviously yoongi had a strong artistic direction, but from an editing standpoint I have rarely been so impressed by the choices made. it's beautifully done

[@waleskavazquez7810]

😢 can you imagine all the other K-pop idols who didn’t have help and couldn’t get through it. Suga had ARMY AND BTS TO SUPPORT HIM and he has bares his soul. I’m very proud to be a fan and to support him.

[@maryannbaxter73]

When he says it's ok, it's ok (16 times) is like a hug or a pat in the back saying exactly that: we have gonne through some darknes but we are ok, we are goung to be ok, everything is ok now. No thing comes without comfort at the end. They always end with hope

[@artspoint6672]

“He can’t scream any louder”…. wow, thank you for these details. I didn’t know about that distortion… Goosebumps.

[@anetaroztomila7491]

I love your reaction and your points. Thank you so much for them! Its beautiful to see how you also listen and watch with your heart. 🖤 I wish Yoongi saw this.

[@BritanieRallison]

This MV deserves ALL the awards

[@blessedsoul14]

Thats why Min yoongi is my favourite idol. Amygdala was so heratfelt. I felt very much connected with his past solo songs too. But amygdala broke me and healed me.

[@bollox21]

Went to first night of concert in new york.. I cried when he sang this. The amount of love in the arena for him and his story of healing was palpable. He's such a wise, wounded soul but he's showing us all that healing is possible and achievable. ARMY has so much to be grateful for..but I'm forever in Yoongi debt.

[@mahai.a6384]

The spinning shot to me was so meaningful. That battle is not only for going up and out, but to me it depicts how there are forces that are continuously trying to drag him down. Yoongi literally opens up, with the rawest of emotions, the bravery to show your story to the world, for the sake of healing others. Oh how I hoped that the door opened at last, but I guess that’s what our life is about, to tray and struggle to find ways to open the door of hope and happiness.

[@claireferneyhough8819]

I struggle so much with mental health issues and can relate so much it’s like I’m in that place with him, truely amazing I love it. so raw glad he trusts us with his past

[@_Dreamer_9306]

"The amygdala is commonly thought to form the core of a neural system for processing fearful and threatening stimuli (4), including detection of threat and activation of appropriate fear-related behaviors in response to threatening or dangerous stimuli." "When a person experiences a traumatic event, adrenaline rushes through the body and the memory is imprinted into the amygdala, which is part of the limbic system." This song as a whole is so tragically beautiful. This was honestly so triggering for me as someone who struggled with s**cidal thoughts and self-h**m in the past, but I'm still glad I continued watching. I cried so much, he portrayed his feelings and the feelings of so many people who go down this dark path so well. He turned something so dark and painful into a beautiful and meaningful masterpiece. And to share it all openly like this to the world, he's so brave. Wish I was like this. I literally love him so much for this. It was so consoling and comforting to feel like I just am not alone in what I went through. Luckily, I bloomed like a lotus flower again, too...

[@prismsage3957]

He has touched so many ppl . Even those not into bts are interested and spreading the word

[@biancavacchiano1607]

It was so hard for me first time I watched it. That part got me "Thigs that are outta my control. Things I never asked for." I hope the Universe bless you Min Yoongi to share this with us, and bless us people with depression and helps to real the wounds that we didn't make to ourselves. We are brave, we are loved and um are strong 💪🏻 ❤️

[@maureenackerley8024]

Its so raw! I cried for Yoongi and myself because I can relate to his trauma as many of people out there would also. D Day at cinema kept me riveted to my seat. After it finished I just sat there feeling so emotional. 😪

[@bunaloop]

...wow, now I understand more of his quite and sadness. He is still here, he is still here...I pray his other K-Pop artists (including his band mates) hear him and get help.

[@SilverSeaOT7]

I cried too. If you have ever had a loved one with serious illness/cancer, or have been there yourself-if you or a loved one struggle so severely with depression, then you understand the pain the Suga had. We all have scars, but they are often hidden deep behind a smile. And that is why we should be kind to each other.

[@aimeetopaz]

This video absolutely wrecked me. His pain is so audible and so visible and he doesn't even hesitate to show it, and it cried like a baby.

[@RosaMariaTorres]

The pain, the struggles and thriving he had to endure melts my heart to endless tears BUT him being able to let it out and letting us know he’s healing little by little is emotionally comforting. I know all the boys are talented and KOOKIE is my bias but Suga-AgustD-Yoongi- is simply a genius. The whole production is a work of art and so heartfelt. We praise and love him even more every day. God bless your soul and keep being as great as you are 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@avocados1707]

holy holy holy holy HOOOOLY fucking shit you nailed it RIGHT ON THE HEAD NO FUCKING WONDER THE CHORUS SOUNDS SO _DESPERATE_ you explained the distortion cuz he can't scream any louder PERFECTLY oh my god I want to cry i love you

[@CraosRiv]

I watched this MV alone for the first time. I'm glad I did, because holy shit, the emotions that basically scream-cried themselves out of me were something I want no one to ever see. After that I have only watched other reactors react to it, and I still cry. Every. Single. Time. The rawness, the realness of Yoongi's story and especially the visuals, they get to me so hard, because they hit the bullseye of my own struggles. This is how I visualize my depression. Basically exactly these same visuals. Just that I don't even have a door or a couch. I literally float in darkness, untethered and unable to get a hold on anything. Yet somehow, watching the video over and over does help me. It hurts like a bitch, but it also helps. It opens me up more, gets me deep into my own amygdala and my subconscious starts working on my own issues more and more. I thank Yoongi every single day for having the courage to put this out for all of us to see. To have healed enough to show us all of this. And I thank you, Roscoe, for an empathetic reaction. This is all I'm looking for from reactions, to be fair. Just someone to cry with together, because I have no one to do that with in real life.

[@ThisRoscoe]

That’s all you’ll get with me, buddy. Authenticity and empathy. Get comfy.

[@LaLayLaKwoumanaQino]

A great artist connects to humans on a whole different level then what just plain music already provides. I bawled my eyes out after watching/hearing this for the first time. Both because I equally moved by the artistry and music itself but specifically more because of the authenticity of what "get me out of here - save me" means to so many who have begged and pleaded their own minds of this mercy before. I pray everyone who struggles is allowed release and relief and gets to the other side of that door before it's too late. x

[@vero1013]

Seriously, I really don't want to make it about me either, but he shares a lot of ways of dealing with stuff with me. We are both people going through ridiculous stuff over and over, not knowing how to even react to them, not having enough time to process them, trying to forget them and erase them so we can keep going. This video felt like a revelation for me, made realize how much work I still have to do on myself. Thank you, your analysis is fantastic.

[@irishanime08]

Yoongi really opened up to us. This may be healing for him , to face his pain and trauma.. and for us, who are also going through the same thoughts... What really pained me about this song and MV, is finally knowing how he held all of this in. Not just while in pre debut, but through out his career. This are not really things you can just talk about in the open, not especially as an Idol who, aside from working hard , are always being hated on for no reason. Holding onto those pain, alone in your mind😭 .. knowing now that he was the one who inflicted that scar in order to cope with all the turmoil he must have been feeling, thus creating AGUST D, the one filled with anger, pain and malice 🥹 he was suffering and yet only tried to give us his best .. How must he have felt, after all his schedule and concerts, going back alone in his hotel room😭.. I'm glad he has his members with him ready to support and help him out. But after seeing this MV, I can never see that scar as anything but pain and proof of Yoongis strength and perseverance 🥹 thank u Yoongi for sharing us urself. you are strong . u deserve all the best . 🥹🥹🥹 #agustd #dday #amygdala

[@CaTLoVeR9289]

He released it stating that after this trilogy agust d will not be found so it's him moving forward to the future as SUGA

[@larissapontes1862]

Fiquei bem emocionada com este MV. Yoongi é um gênio!

[@Gramcracker72]

His story is his music is his life story. You can back to every Video-it is his life . SUGA Is I believe the most honest professional. That what’s makes him the greatest talent of this generation. So respected for sheer genius! ❤️🍀
