BTS‘ Suga has an incredible memory! He remembered a promise he made 4 years ago and recently fulfilled that same promise!

 

In 2014, at a fan signing event, Suga asked A.R.M.Y what they wanted to eat.

“What do you want to eat?” — Suga

 

After they answered that they wanted beef, he told them that he would treat them to a meat party when he made money.

“Let’s go eat it together next time. For real.” — Suga

 

Then in 2015, when he was asked about the meat party, he named March 9, 2018, as the date that he would keep his promise to A.R.M.Y.

 

And he secretly kept his promise! He donated 10 kg (~22 lbs) of Korean Hanwoo beef (top grade beef from Korea) along with signed copies of BTS’ CDs to 39 orphanages in the name of ARMY.

 

BigHit Entertainment made an announcement that it was Suga who donated the meat.

“We know that Suga donated Hanwoo to 39 orphanages on March 9th, his birthday, in the name of A.R.M.Y for all their fans.” — BigHit Entertainment

 

They also addressed why Suga didn’t do exactly as he had promised.

“It’s hard for him to have a meat party with fans. So instead, he donated in the name of A.R.M.Y to express his gratitude for fans.” — BigHit Entertainment

 

Netizens are just amazed that he remembered and think he is super sweet for keeping his promise!

  • “Why is he such a sweetheart? I can’t even stand it.”

  • “What did we do to deserve such a precious angel. Yoongi is such a sweetheart. ;_;”

  • “I’ll say it again… show me another man who is as perfect”

  • “Awww I love him. I hope I can be as cool as him one day”

  • “Oh my god my heart. Yoongi giving back on his birthday yet again, and never forgetting promises.”

  • “The members of BTS have the most beautiful souls, I swear.”

  • “Man, I don’t usually get emotional over this sort of thing… He is such a kind person.”

When a viewer asked Akari for her opinion on Korean people’s fashion styles, Akari said, “Do you want me to be honest?” before continuing onto her answer that stirred up a storm.

 

Akari stated, “Koreans don’t have a variety of styles like the Japanese.”

“Everyone is the same. Everyone follows the trend and wears the same thing.”

 

Akari explained that when she goes to Hongik University area, which is a popular destination for hipsters and fashionistas, she sees people who are dressed the same.

 

She added it’s hard to tell apart people because everyone looks the same.

 

To this, some Koreans have expressed strong disagreement.

  • “I agree that Koreans are sensitive to trends, but can’t agree to not having a variety.”
  • “I don’t know what part of Hongdae she has been to, lol.”
  • “I can’t tell who is who in Japan either.”

 

Some agreed but criticized that Akari could have worded her stance better.

  • “I think it’s a bit aggressive to say everyone is the same or she can’t tell who is who.”
  • “She’s right, but she said it in such a mean way.”
  • “Was it necessary to add that last comment about not being able to tell people apart?”

 

Others simply admitted that Koreans indeed lack a variety when it comes to fashion and praised Japan for having unique styles.

  • “I agree. Koreans are wearing the same things everywhere.”
  • “Japanese people try all kinds of styles. They’re open to mixing and matching, while Koreans aren’t. So to a Japanese person, I’m sure it seems that way.”
  • “Agreed. I went to Japan and saw that everyone is so different and unique.”
