It seems like BTS’ SUGA has some tough competition, and it is none other than his own company staff.
On September 27, the Agust D rapper arrived at the Incheon International Airport to fly out to Japan for some yet-to-be-revealed business. Although fans went gaga over him and his looks, another person caught their eye - a staff member travelling with him.
The staff member, who flaunted a great build, tall height, and luscious, lengthy hair easily towered above BTS’ SUGA, who himself is 5 feet 9 inches. Initially, the staff member was mistaken for the youngest member of BTS, Jung Kook. Both the Agust D rapper and the staff member were dressed in an all-black outfit.
While some media photos blurred his face, as is the custom, there were several other photos and videos which captured the company staff in his glory.

BTS’ SUGA recently treated his fans with a stunning black-and-white portrait photo on Instagram, which captured the K-pop idol’s handsome face and long locks gloriously. It happened again, with him arriving at the Incheon International Airport sporting an all-black outfit and his signature beanie.
Media houses and fans always capture airport arrivals and departures of their favourite celebrities till the very end. One way they can see an idol without their mask or hat is at the identification checkpoint. The Daechwita rapper similarly set hearts on fire when he let his luscious locks loose for a few seconds during that time.
While many gushed over the rapper himself, several got obsessed with his company staff aka "manager", who was spotted alongside SUGA.
Twitter user @lridescent9595 posted a clip of the staff member talking to BTS’ SUGA. The 5-second clip captured a milli-second of his fully masked face. At the time of writing this article, the said video had already garnered 116.9k views already.
The staff member, who a majority of the ARMYs presume to be the manager, looked effortlessly handsome. In an instant, fans tweeted that they wanted BTS’ SUGA to move over to get a good look at the "manager".
Check out some of the fans’ reactions below:
Fans also discovered that this staff member was the same person who was seen beside Bang Si-hyuk and BTS’ RM during &AUDITION - The Howling’s finale.
Some fans placed their bets on him being a translator and not a manager, since &AUDITION was a Japanese competition show and the Agust D rapper was flying to Japan.
The identity of the mysterious manager/translator remains unknown for now. However, considering the global spread of ARMYs and the investigative power they hold, fans can soon expect to know the name of the “manager-nim.”
