【Hanryupia 2014 March Issue】Catch up with BTS: Relay Interview vol.4 – J-HOPE x SUGA + mini interview: JUNGKOOK’s trans
1994.2.18/A/Rap & dance. Well-known b-boy in Gwangju and won many competitions. Suga says: 「He worries a lot and he’s vulnerable to flattery.」.
1993.3.9/O/Rap. When he’s free, he would make music with MIDI, so the members calls him the 『Father of Composition』. He has a special ability to handle the machines and assemble computers.
J-HOPE: 「Hello~! I’m the MC, J-Hope~! Let’s have fun today~!」
SUGA: 「Too much tension (laughs).」
J-HOPE: 「Ok, let’s talk about our first meeting. We first met…」
SUGA: 「It was 4 years ago, we met in the dormitory. I joined the company first and then J-Hope came on 24th December?」
J-HOPE: 「That’s right. 2010’s Christmas Eve! When I first walked into the dormitory, I had mixed feelings, I was anxious and was anticipating at the same time. And Suga appeared, he only had boxers on! It was a reality check of the trainee’s life. On that day, Suga spoke to me first and I can still remember what he said to me. I was sleeping in the living room at night and then Suga said to me: 『go sleep in the room』(laughs). I was happy~」
SUGA: 「He was sleeping with the blanket tucked inside out, he looked pity.」
J-HOPE: 「I remember that I replied: 『It’s okay, it’s comfy here.』 Although Suga looks cold, but actually he is a manly man with a warm heart so I like him. ♥」
SUGA: 「Your nose is gradually growing like Pinocchio?」
J-HOPE: 「I got caught? (laughs) One more, I can remember clearly about the 『end of year chicken』. At the end of that year, the other trainees went back home and I was the only one in the dormitory to celebrate the new year. And Suga called to ask if I was fine. I replied saying that I’m bored because I’m all alone and then after a while, Suga came to the dormitory with chicken in his hand! I was so touched at the time I fell for him without even realizing it. If I was a girl, I would definitely fall in love!」
SUGA: 「His condition wasn’t good. He just came to the dormitory and he couldn’t get used to the practice so he was really stressed out. Once, you got up and didn’t you say that you felt dizzy. I was aware of that so I went back to the dormitory earlier than I’ve planned. J-Hope looks bright, likes to joke around and he’s pretty delicate? In another word, he’s vulnerable to stress. He suffered from stress-induced enteritis, so I often took him to the hospital to get an injection.」
J-HOPE: 「But I couldn’t take Suga hyung to the hospital when you had acute appendicitis in Japan…. (pretends to weep)」
SUGA: 「No, if you were next to me, it would be disturbing… you’re noisy (laughs).」
J-HOPE: 「Ah seriously! (Gets angry) Anyways, it’s a relief that you have recovered. Don’t get sick from now on!」
SUGA:「On 8th December, I got sick and went back to Korea urgently. I was staying in the hospital and thought that I recovered completely but I was rehospitalized at the end of the year. It should be the most memorable end of year in my life after one year of debut. To be honest, I was angry. It was painful to watch the members on award ceremonies in the hospital. Until now, my condition has been fine so I will work harder.」
J-HOPE: 「The end of this year, if we work hard, it will happen. ♪」
SUGA:「That’s right. Thinking about it now, I have always been receiving energy from J-Hope. Being high-spirited is J-Hope’s biggest charm! In the future, please stay as high-spirited as now. I will forgive you for being full blast from the morning (laughs). But you kept talking this morning when we were in the hair salon getting our make-up and hair done.」
J-HOPE: 「I was actually sleepy but I thought it’s not good to fall asleep so I tried my best to chat (away). Even if my eyes are sleeping, my mouth must be awake!」
SUGA:「What are you talking about… what should I say? The content is not clear. Even if I have been listening, I have no idea what he’s talking about (laughs).」
J-HOPE: 「I don’t have anything important to take into my mind. I just talk ranging over a variety of subjects. Even if I talk about 10 subjects, people would like the feeling of that I have a lot to say in one chat. ~」
SUGA: 「I want to hear a story with one content (laughs).」
