Why he might be annoying:

    He looks like an Asian version of John Oliver.
    He was rumoured to have tricked Yoon-Gi Min into joining the idol group by telling Yoon-Gi he was going into a hip-hop band; Suga, who was then an underground rapper, auditioned with the intention of being a music producer.
    During BTS’s idol training days, he stuffed all seven members in a one-bedroom dwelling.
    His company was close to bankruptcy when he formed BTS.
    At one time, he could not afford to feed his trainees, leaving member Jin (who comes from an upper middle-class family) to feed the bandmates using his allowance or food from his home.
    Before BTS, he developed many other KPop acts that are nowhere near as popular as the Bulletproof Boy Scouts.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is a Duran Duran fan.
    He grew up in a musical household.
    Both his parents are university educated with his mother attending Seoul National University.
    His parents tried to discourage him from pursuing a music career and tried to make him focus on his academics when he was a youth.
    As of late fall 2020, he is worth $1.4 billion (after making BigHit public) making him the only billionaire in the South Korean entertainment industry.
    He has co-written many of BTS’s hits including ’Fake Love,’ ’Euphoria,’ ’Mic Drop,’ ’Boy With Love,’ ’I Need You’ and ’Epiphany.’
    He helped turn BTS into a global music phenomenon.
