The BTS ARMY has rallied behind Suga in an extensive display of support following his recent public appearance at Yongsan Police Station on August 23, 2024. This appearance was related to the ongoing DUI case against him, an incident that has sparked significant controversy.
Many fans believe he has been subjected to unfair treatment, with the severity of the situation being blown out of proportion compared to what transpired.

To express their support for Suga, many posters were hung outside the HYBE building, the headquarters of BTS' label. These banners were not just ordinary fan-made creations but were meticulously crafted by a group of Filipino ARMYs who came together, raising funds to ensure their message reached the star.
The posters featured the phrase "GOT ARMY RIGHT BEHIND YOU," a line taken from BTS' hit song Butter. This phrase was chosen to reassure him they would stand by him by offering him strength and encouragement during this difficult time.
Filipino ARMYs lead the charge of support towards BTS' Suga
The incident that led to Suga's public police appearance on August 23 dates back to August 6, 2024. Two days ago, the "photo line" was initiated as part of the legal process. In most countries, law enforcement uses a photo line-up to allow witnesses or victims to identify a suspect involved in a crime. It is designed to be an unbiased method of identification.
During Suga's questioning session, which was live-streamed by the prominent Korean media outlet Dispatch, reporters surrounded him in a manner that many fans found disrespectful and invasive. This heavy-handed approach, especially the decision to live-stream the session on YouTube for a global audience, struck fans as an unnecessary and exaggerated response.
This perception of unfair treatment galvanized fans worldwide to show their support, with the Filipino ARMY leading the charge through their thoughtful and powerful display. Even protest trucks were sent a few days ago outside the HYBE building to extend their support.
Fans from all corners of the globe also joined in expressing their admiration for the Filipino ARMY's initiative, praising them for their creativity and dedication in standing up for Suga.
As of now, the case remains unresolved after nearly 20 days with no obvious conclusion in sight.
