Daily news visited Suga’s middle school and high school in Daegu where they interviewed his former teachers.
They also interviewed his father who said that Suga wanted to become a musician since the 5th grade.
Suga even asked his father to convert his older brother’s room into a music room.
He then invested 10 million won to buy music equipment for Yoongi.
The Middle School principle revealed that foreigners would visit the school to take pictures in front of the gate, visit Suga’s classroom and take pictures of his graduation photo.
Daily News also interviews Suga’s middle school music teacher who revealed how Suga approached her in the second year of middle school and asked her to teach him how to play the piano.
Yoongi’s high school teacher praised him saying that he never broke any rules:
“Yoongi [Suga’s real name] never violated any school rules. Since it was the old era and it was a boy’s private school, the dress code and hair rules were very strict.
But he has never violated [the rules], giving excuses like he’s doing music, or any such thing. There was no place to learn music in Chilgok [Suga’s hometown]. So until he went to the music academy in the second semester, he studied very hard in the classroom as not to disturb other students.
He would stay awake until dawn to study composition. But he never violated rules with excuses like he was doing music and things like that.”
He also sent Suga a message:
“Yoongi!
You may or may not see this message, but I enjoyed the times we spent together. They’re all good memories now.
Not only me, but your school sunbaes and hoobaes are also very proud of you. Don’t forget your school, Gangbuk High School!
We will always cheer you on and support you! Fighting!”
The high school principle also had a message for Yoongi:
“Suga of BTS, who was a beloved Gangbuk student.
Its good to see you in this video. Thank you for the good work, and I know that you will be at the top of the world.
I will also support BTS Suga’s life, and his music. BTS Fighting!“
