The rest of the BTS members shared messages and updates which sparked concern and curiosity over Suga's silence. Many took to social media, flooding platforms with questions as one ARMY posted,

"Yoongi where are you…? it’s been long time"

"Missing Yoongi.. 🫂 I'm sending him tons of hugs and love. I hope he is doing well," posted one BTS fan.

"Yoongi be really testing my patience atp. I miss you so much okay?? WE ALL MISS YOU SO MUCH SO CAN YOU PLS EVEN JUST 👋🏻?? 😭😭" asking an X user.

"this makes me miss yoongi even more, but I understand why he’s inactive on social media. i just can’t wait for the day he sends us a message again," reads a comment on X.

The absence of Suga’s update has left fans anxious, hoping for a glimpse into his life and reassurance that he is doing well. Some fans are also eagerly anticipating his return to the spotlight.

"6/7 🥺❤️‍🩹 can’t wait for Yoongi’s update soon. I hope you’re doing well and enjoying the holidays with your family. I love you and I miss you so much," said one fan.

"Yoongiiii pleaseeeee! Atleast tell us you are fine and healthy or furious at the government whatever it is. That's all we need to know. Drop a "🙂", send a smoke signal-anything... please. What have we done to deserve this silent treatment?!!! 🙇‍♀️" wrote this ARMY.

"I'm not sorry for the person I'll turn into when I see my yoongi again and receive a WEVERSE notification from him. The universe will fall apart if he shows even the slightest hint of life. For the next five months, it's just me and this enormous 5'9" cat-shaped hole in my heart," posted one individual on X.
