What we know about the tour so far
As of right now Suga’s tour is referred to as the Suga | Agust D tour. Suga’s birth name is Min Yoon-gi, and Suga is his stage name in BTS.
Outside of BTS, Suga releases his solo music under the name Agust D. The name Agust D is the combination of “Suga” spelled backwards plus the beginning letters of his hometown, Daegu Town.
Suga is typically referred to as Suga when releasing music associated with BTS while Agust D is an alter ego he uses for solo promotions. When he releases music as a producer for other artists, Suga is credited as “by SUGA.”
According to a press release, “the mention of Agust D, SUGA’s other stage name,” in the tour announcement is purposeful and “catches the eyes of the fans, heightening the anticipation of the first solo tour.”
The press release also reveals that “The official title of the tour will be unveiled at a later date.”
Even though the official name of the upcoming world tour is not known to the public, it can be inferred by the tour announcement that the tour setlist will include songs from Suga’s work with BTS and from his solo mixtapes.
