"Actually after buying that whiskey, since you had come to my premiere and you invited me to the show, I wanted to buy another gift that you might like so I called Jin... I asked 'What does Suga likes?'and he was like 'well he likes basketball' I was like ' I know that too, I'm asking because I want to buy a gift for him 'and he was like 'mmh honestly I don't know what he likes either'."
