‘Suchwita’ Host Suga Calls SEVENTEEN’s Woozi His Younger Brother

It finally happened! BTS’ Suga and SEVENTEEN’s Woozi got together for the latest episode of “Suchwita” to beat the doppelganger allegations. Lee Jihoon impressed Min Yoongi so much that the “Haegeum” rapper called him his “younger brother.”

Suga Meets ‘Younger Brother’ Woozi in ‘Suchwita’ Episode 10

In “Suchwita” Episode 10, Suga hyped up the arrival of his next guest. The BTS rapper claimed that “so many people are looking forward to seeing this two-shot.” This is a reference to the similarities between him and Woozi, who shares similar features and is also a gifted producer like Suga.

When Woozi arrived, he presented Suga with gifts and they immediately addressed the elephant in the room. Suga revealed that fellow BTS member RM had brought up a common belief about doppelgangers and worried about their meeting.

“My members kept asking me who the next guest on ‘Suchwita’ was so when I told them it was you, Woozi, RM said ‘Won’t you die if you two meet?’ I asked why, and he said ‘You two are doppelgangers, aren’t you?’” Suga said.

Min Yoongi also admitted to playing up the similarities between him and Woozi. He confirmed he had their hair styled similarly for the “Haegeum” TikTok challenge video they did together.

It was immediately clear that the two had a great connection. Suga pointed out that Woozi feels like family to him.

“Although I don’t have a younger brother, he’s like a younger brother. I feel like I’m looking into a mirror. I can see myself in you when I was around 16 or 17,” Suga said.

Woozi quickly agreed, saying, Suga “feels like an older brother too.” Needless to say, ARMYs and CARATs are already looking forward to a possible collaboration between the two.

The latest episode of “Suchwita” is out now. Suga is currently on the road for his first world tour the ‘Suga Agust D Tour’. Meanwhile, Woozi is promoting SEVENTEEN’s new album ‘FML’.

“You were a person who made the world look different. It’s so hard to get along this well,” Seungkwan wrote. “We walked together for hours without a destination. Captured pretty sceneries on a camera. Became lost in contemplation while looking at the night sky. Became drunk and sang songs on the streets. When I fell asleep drunk, you would always make sure to charge my phone before sleeping.”

He also reminisced about his disagreements with Moon Bin which were always settled naturally.

“We would fight until our faces got red because of trivial words, We tried not contacting each other, being hurt and out of pride. But in the end, we would miss each other and say sorry to each other. After reconciling, we would hang out having fun like never before,” Seungkwan wrote.

“It was an honor for me to become your friend. And thank you so much for being my friend. Thank you again for allowing me to learn and feel many things,” he added.

“You’re my friend in our next life, no matter what. I’ll see you up there! I’ll hug you tight as soon as I see you. I love you so much. Bin, you worked hard,” Seungkwan concluded.

SEVENTEEN is currently promoting their latest album ‘FML’. Last week, Seungkwan did not join the group in the Mnet M Countdown pre-recording.

“I have bad handwriting, so I write memos on my phone or computer instead of taking analog notes,” he said. “[I wonder], ‘What state was I in at the time to have written this?’ It doesn’t feel like me. I’m glad to leave [notes] like this. It’s like scribbling about me.”

Woozi also confessed that writing on his own is comforting for him.

“It’s embarrassing and embarrassing to say, but it’s definitely there. I am comforted by the lyrics I wrote. People will laugh when they see it, but it is a very moving moment for me. In fact, it often happens,” he said with a laugh.

The leader of SEVENTEEN’s Vocal Team also revealed that each member has their own distinct quality as an artist. He discussed Vernon and Hoshi in particular, confirming that he believes they are unique in their own way.

Of Kwon Soonyoung, Woozi said, “Hoshi is intense. As a producer, he keeps raising the expectations for the player. But Hoshi shows how he goes a step further than that. That is how much he is overflowing with passion. I admire him.”
