i LOVE how you do your own research during the reaction instead of just asking viewers to tell you everything. it adds so much quality to your interpretation and makes it much more enjoyable to watch than many other people's
Exactly! A lot of reactors are dumb af😂 like, they have phones and are using computers most of the time and google is free😂
i thought the same! all these reactors acting like they can't do a quick google search on their phone 😂
Yes!!! I can’t stand when reactors ask something they could just google themselves.
thats got to be my biggest pp!@@user-zf7vt6dz5r
STRAY KIDS THE KING OF KPOP
Nice reaction ! You got it right : this song is his life story. The amygdala is a part of the brain that performs a primary role in
processing emotional responses. When Yoongi (his real name) is asking his amygdala to save him, he's basically asking himself and his own emotions to save him. The lyrics are pretty explicit in themselves : he went through a lot in his life and also battled with depression for several years. A few precision that we, as fans, are aware of :
- Both his parents are still alive (thank God) despite the health struggles that was revealed in this song.
- The accident we keep seeing glimpse of and that he mentioned was during BTS's beginnings. He had a side job as a delivery guy and got into a car accident. It wasn't an accident of fatal consequences although Yoongi was injured but he kept it hidden for years, didn't mention it to the company or anyone (their beginning was very humble and full of struggles, I believe he didn't want to add to it as they were physically training basically like athletes). He finally got surgery in 2020 but not before developing a very serious case of shoulder injury from all those years.
Anyways, the whole trilogy is about his battle with himself. It's pure artistic genius if I'm being real. Fun fact : he might not have been able to open the door in the video and save himself ; but on the last day of his tour (August 2023) he left the stage going through this exact door. I believe it was a sign of closure for him and for his fans. 😊
He's a genius indeed 💜
He didn't hide it for years. The label found out not long after and said they would wait for him (not kick him out) and paid for his school tuition so he wouldn't have to work side jobs anymore.
i bawled my eyes out watching that tour finale, seeing him finally being able to walk through the door, and the implications of that. definitely a huge relief
@@femmy-syahraniThe label found out but the fans didn’t know until years later.
I thought he was referring to his amygdala saving him from the MEMORIES, not the emotions. The amygdala is more often associated with storing memories and he wants to erase them so he can cope without the burden.
👏 👏 Give this man a prize. You're right. It's the same scar. Suga has 3 songs that make up a trilogy. Daechwita, Haegeum, & Amygdala.
I agree. He deserves a prize!
Amygdala is the last of the 3, but it's the "prequel" to the others. Suga struggled throughout his life, to the point he thought of every way out. He ended up scarring himself to hide "his weak self". The scar was him becoming "agust d", the guy that basically throws up a middle finger in everyone's face. In this song, his asking to be freed from all his memories/trauma. IDK, many army's can explain it better
I would just add, that from my understanding, the message was that some scars are self-inflicted (he made his own scar in Amygdala) and that the way they heal depends on us, how we improve ourselves. This is why the King-AgustD in Daechwita had a very prominent scar, but the next "versions" of him, the ones who defeat the old "versions" have a smaller, more healed scar.
he happy ending of this saga happened at the last show of the DDay tour, where he finally manages to walk through this door, overcoming this painful past. It was exciting. RM sang a song with him and the entire BTS rap lineup was in attendance, including J Hope and Jin, who are in the military and got time off to honor their brother.
Also, all of the 6 other members made an appearance at the Agust D concert in Seoul, but only 3 (Jimin, Jungkook and RM) on different nights) performed with Yoongi. Two of the members, Jin and JHope, were already serving their active military duty so they able to go to performance, but not perform. The final member, V, was literally days away from dropping his solo album, was super busy, but he did attend a performance.
Military is mandatory for Korean men as they are technically still at war, from the Korean War, is only under an armistice truce which has lasted now 70 years. As of December 12, all 7 members are enlisted. 🥺, so now BTS ARMY have to wait 2025 to see them. Serve well 🫡 BTS! 💜🫶🏼💜
Suga was also a delivery man in the early days of BTS and had a motorcycle accident while delivering in a rainy day like it's shown in the mv. He injured his shoulder but didn't say anything because he was afraid of being kicked out of the group. He ended up having surgery in 2019
2020*
@maliam_ One good thing that came out of the pandemic, time for him to do it.
It was 2020, bestie
@@crushedflora2696 It was good that he decided to do the surgery. I remember how weird it felt not to see him in Run BTS and their performences but im glad he prioritized his health
@@maliam_ Definitely felt his absence. About cried when they did the hologram or when they called him for awards
You pay more attention than most reactors, and you actually try to understand, and I enjoy that about you. The trilogy is way for Suga/AgustD/ Min Yoongi to visualize his internal struggles. He has dealt with a lot of things, but his biggest battle was learning how to live with his past rather than run from it.
His whole D-Day tour was very symbolic of his journey.
Happy to say that Suga's parents are still living. The images depicted are true to his life. He was delivering food and was hit by a car. His shoulder was enjured. He had surgery a couple of years ago. In the video, he wants to forget his bad memories. But he can't escape his amygdala. No one can. Which is why he doesn't get out of the room. Our memories, good and bad, are a part of us.
*Amygdala* - is an almond shaped part of our brain which is commonly thought to form the core of a neural system for processing fearful and threatening stimuli, including detection of threat and activation of our fight or flight response. The amygdala helps to store memories of events and emotions so that an individual may be able to recognize similar events in the future.
*Day-chi-ta and Hay-gum* - He had the scar in both of those
This is Yoongi's story. He wants to recall the memories so he can deal with them and control them. If we can remember our trauma's and deal with them, that will bring healing. If we keep them in our subconscious minds, they tend to control us, and we don't see it, but we feel it in our lives and how it affects us. For Yoongi (aka Suga aka Agust D) it would be his depression, OCD, and Anxiety. And Yes, they did cause him to want to Kill Himself.
Yoongi has shared his mental health issues with us since the beginning, and he stated how some of his roughest times were in the early days, like from 2014 to 2016, how he developed social anxiety at age 18, he was dealing with depression and OCD. BTS had hate coming at them from all angles, and it took a toll on them in the early years. So hearing all the other things he was dealing with as well, just puts things into perspective. He's such a strong person. In the making video, he said, *"the scars we create are of our own making."* So the best way for him to represent that was the way that he did with the scar on his face. And the medicine he took was for his condition. He talked about how he saw a psychiatrist and his parents went with him, and they said they didn't know who he was anymore. This was in "The Last" from his first mixtape Agust D.
He said, *"how could anyone know him when he doesn't know himself,"* so that phrase "I don't know your name" made sense to me. Looking back at repressed memories. Thankfully he got through all of it, and now is healed to a certain degree. I see the rain as a shift., He also talked about "What doesn't kill you make you stronger", and he is now "blooming like a lotus flower." The lotus flower is very resilient, and can grow in mud and water, like on a lake or pond. So I see the rain as cleansing, and healing.
He also said in the behind the scenes on Daechwita, that the mad King was the Agust D from his first Mixtape in 2016, and the peasant was from his 2020 mixtape D-2. You can see the scar is very raw in that video on both of them, maybe slightly less for the 2020 Agust D. In Haegeum, I interpret it as Agust D from 2020 is the Police detective/corrupt Boss, with the partially healed scar, and the Agust D that kills, and steals the money with no scar is his album "D-Day" Agust D. The one that is mostly healed and is talking about freedom. (Do we ever completely heal from our scars?)
In an interview with IU, and in the D-Day film, he talks about how he was very angry and now he has forgiven the haters and is living in the present. So his music moving forward may not have the angry vibe that we have seen in the past. But he is definitely not done yet
Finally, Yoongi went on a sold-out world tour, after this album was released, and at the Final concert, he was very emotional, and had his BTS Bros. and his PEERS there with him.On a couple occasions, ARMY's sang the parts in the song he was singing, because he was so emotional he couldn't sing. And at the very end, the door he couldn't go through in this Music Video is on the stage, and he's able to walk through now. That tells me that he has healed and accepted those parts of himself, and he can move forward and let go now. You could see the relief on his face, and the love in his eyes, as he waved good bye and closed the door. EPIC MOMENT.
Check out the scar below the tattoo on his shoulder. The tattoo was placed there for a reason. It's a friendship tattoo that all the BTS members got before they took their break, because they are brothers in heart and soul. The scar below if from the motorcycle accident. th-cam.com/users/shortsHgx7ZB14FoE?feature=share
The bad things that the amygdala processes (emotional memory) end up being a protective memory: If you were stung by a bee, the amygdala gives you the sensation of fear because of the memory of the bad symptoms you felt and this fear protects you against another sting. ...
The end of the video is frustrating and we only understand it after seeing the end of the live show in Seoul, when he leaves through that same door, showing us how he has overcome his difficult past.
Check "Snooze", he is already experienced and gives strength to those just starting out on the journey, providing support and strengthening dreams that, at first, seem impossible for those just starting out.
Amygdala is story of live Agust d
You are pretty good with your interpretation of all 3 songs! Thank you for paying attention to the lyrics! I checked the comment section for all your videos for Agust D and I think you will find the answers that will fill in the missing pieces of information there :)
Also, fun fact: Agust D had a tour this year and the whole stage was representing the Amygdala Room - through the tour, through the performances he basically went through many past memories, and performed many old songs where he brought up difficult and sensitive topics. And on the last day of the tour, on the stage appeared the white door - the one he tried to reach in this MV. And on the final day of the tour, he finally reached those doors. It was such a poetic way to wrap up this chapter of his life - and ARMy felt so moved he decided to share this moment with us.
Another track you might enjoy from Agust D also from the album D Day is Snooze. The song and lyrics to me are amongst Suga's best. There is a fan made video cobbled from the Road to D Day documentary which is quite good (and I say this as someone who usually dislikes fan made videos). I also love the title track D Day a lot.
Absolutely! Came to the comments to recommend Snooze, People, and Trivia:Seesaw
@@Sammi_MacaroniYas, SeeSaw!!!!!!
Min Yoongi(his real name) always says his music is up for your own interpretations. I think a lot of his music has hit home to a lot of people, because he is so connected to what he went through in life. His whole discography is about his life struggles, overcoming them, and helping others find a way to do the same. The scar represents (to me) self inflicted emotional wounds we give ourselves, and throughout the trilogy you see the scar get lighter and lighter as he kills off each part of his toxic egos to where it leads to Heaguem, where the "criminal" who survives doesnt have the scar anymore, ending the trilogy saying he has finally healed and moved past his traumas.
Also I just wanted to add, a lot of people react to his music, or BTS in general for views and clout and never actually understand or try to look up words they don't know, past references and such things. You are the first music reactor I saw that actually takes time in all three videos to try to understand his intentions in the video as well as the lyrics. Thank you.
Please don’t feel a need to apologize for really trying to understand what he’s saying g. I really appreciate that you tried so hard to make sense of it and even stop and look things up. I wish we had more reactors mine you. Subscribed!
What a great reaction! You got it right, this is about his internal struggle. You will get a lot of suggestions on what to watch next and I am going to throw my two on the list 1. "My Dear Friend" and 2. "The Last" . No matter what you listen to you will see that Suga lays himself bare in much of his music which makes him a true artist.
I agree, he’s interested enough to want to understand. Terell, this trilogy is based on actual events and struggles in Agust D’s life as a trainee, the accident, his folks illnesses and his actual suicide attempt that from what I understand, Jin saved him from succeeding. He changed his outlook on life as time went on. BTS’s rise was very difficult, and they were all so young. They learned how to deal with so much opposition. But they became stronger, ARMY has always been a source of support, BTS persevered! I appreciate that you are resourceful and want to understand, I’ve only been here since 2016, and ARMY can correct me if I’ve made errors, but I researched them myself, looking for answers.
Please react THE LAST -AgustD
Yes, these are things that happened to him irl. That's the thing I love most of him, his music is raw and he is honest about the stuff he deals with (ocd, depression and anxiety), he comes to us as he is.
Thanks for your reaction. Hope you can react to Taylor's BTS documentary soon.
What i took from this is he wants to remember, but in the process of remembrance, he wants to accept it and move on. There's another song from this album called Snooze, and it talks about the hardships in the idol industry, I would greatly appreciate it if you would react to that song as well
I’m impressed with your assessment of Suga’s trilogy performance. When he speaks, there’s usually a lot to be said.
Recommend you react to the live Cypher 1-4 performances💜
Excellent! Welcome to the genius music of Agust D/Suga/Min Yoongi!💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
In the last day of his tour the door finally opened 💜💜💜… so many amazing songs you should check The Last, Snooze and the rest of the BTS rap line … J-Hope Arson, RM -Still Life… BTS Born singer 💜💜💜💜
I think there are 3 more songs that would make Agust D story more... complete? Put more light on the path he took?
1) The Last (old song about his struggles)
2) D-DAY (one of his newest songs about overcoming problems and looking toward a better future)
3) Snooze (song he made with intend to comfort people who struggle - since he know how it is. it is dedicated mostly to younger artists).
Hey just found your channel with this reaction. Loved it! Yes, Yoongi (a.k.a. SUGA a.k.a. AgustD) has said the scar can represent the more internal emotional and psychological scars that people have that aren't always on the surface to see, and how sometimes these scars are brought about by tragedy and such but sometimes we inflict our own scars onto ourselves. His song "The Last" talks more about his story of growing up and dealing with social anxiety and depression and the darkness he overcame in that process. The Amygdala (Ah-MIG-dah-lah) is often associated with the fight or flight response and can also hide away memories that may be too traumatic to deal with. He has a behind on the making of the album over on Disney+ (Road to D-Day) that talks about how he had to remember and unpackage all of his painful memories as he wrote this and other songs for the album, how it was necessary but difficult but to heal he knew he had to face them all. Thanks for the reaction!
saying this song, "hits you" is a word. and to see him sing this live will break you. 💜
Relating this song back to the first two in the trilogy- this is about fighting yourself and in the first two videos he killed the “evil” version of himself. This video also reveals that the scar was self-inflicted.
You’re putting it together pretty well for someone with no background knowledge of Agust-D and his life. He has always written openly about his past struggles with mental (and physical) health, which is unusual in rap and even more unusual in Korean music. The Last is a masterpiece of his where he is very blunt about last struggles and overcoming them.
Thank you and good reaction! You missed noticing 5:02 when he inflicted the scar by himself thru that cutter. If you noticed his scar here in Amygdala is so fresh compared to Daechwita and Haegeum. In this song he finally revealed the origin of his scar and its symbolism which i think millions of his fans and viewers globally including me trying to figured out through the years..... that's why Yoongi aka Suga aka Agust D is so special, so unique to me , so genius , so brilliant in making his own music, not only most of it bases in his life but the way he constructed , storyline , its story board that according to him while he is making Daechwita he already had the storyboard of HaEgeum , the boy is not only a good rapper but such a genius overall in making music. A really good and no non-sense music .
Expect that if Suga makes music and MV it will be a top notch!
Visua --- 100%
Cinematic--- 100%
Lyrics----100%
Beat-----100%
Performance---- 100%
You have to check also hi HAEGEUM DANCE PRACTICE , you'll see him
dancing Haegeum , how swag he is!

DAECHWITA EXPLAINED
by DKDTv
He did catch that at around 9:00 kept trying to catch the image of his scar 😊
Yes, definitely recommend looking out for an MV explanation video by a Korea, like DKDKTV, because there is a lot of Korean cultural references, slang or visuals that we, westerners, will miss and it’s eye-opening to really see what a genius level these guys are operating on! Also, use other explanation videos for their MVs as well, like by bookish theories, because BTS musical inspiration can come from some serious intellectual sources of literature, art, philosophy, psychology and I wasn’t smart enough to know some of that on my own or had 1st hand knowledge of that information. So I hope you continue your BTS journey & I’ve really enjoyed your reactions to their music. 💜🫶🏼💜
Our baby Yoongi speaks on his personal truth and his struggles. Maybe because we relate with his experiences and the mental state and struggle we go might go through, it just feels like he understands us better. He will always stay humble and true to his fandom. 💜
Best king agust d❤❤
React to THE LAST in that song how much more about his life
Cerebral Amydala looks like an almond and that's why we see flashes of him sitting there eating almonds, super calm, watching the whole process happen.
Your parents are well and healthy today.
LOL. You're so bad at remembering song names 😂, but really smart and understanding the meanings behind them. 👍🏻
For me, this song personified battles with suicide and depression.
It shows two sides: the depression and the person who is fighting that battle.
Going through all Yoongi did, its definitely an unfortunate yet relatable issue for those suffering from depression.
Personally ive never resonated with much music outside of the metal genre, but I really find myself in Suga/Agust D's songs (thanks to my kpop obsessed 8 yr old .)
I think, of all the solo releases from the BTS members, Yoongi's hits my heart the hardest...
When suga tries to open the mental door to his subconscious always gets me 😢
All the members of Bts have excellent music as soloists and as a group, I recommend you react to both facets of them as musicians and their live performances (concerts) you will not be disappointed.
I love that you actually read the lyrics. Love your reaction 👍
This is what Suga said the meaning was....“There’s a thing called an ‘amygdala.’ Your brain stores all of your unpleasant memories in the amygdala,” he confirms. Suga adds that it does this “so you can prepare yourself for those types of situations in the future.” He then reveals that writing the song is difficult because it deals with personal memories like his accident and his parents’ illnesses.
“I have massive mood swings whenever I’m working on this song. To work on it, I have to bring up some of my unpleasant memories,” Min Yoongi said. However, he also points out that this is “a very important process to learn to control those memories.”
“AMYGDALA” is an emotional track where Suga brings up the accident where he incurred a shoulder injury. It also addresses his mother’s heart surgery and his father’s liver cancer diagnosis. The song confronts the painful memories but he also begs his amygdala to erase the sad moments. I love your reactions and how you try to find the deeper meaning behind the words and visuals. As you delve deeper into BTS you will find most of the music has a deeper meaning. 💜
This song hits hard!!! Makes me emotional every time I think about Suga's struggles.
I like your reaction. Suga is such a awesome all-around Artist. I love him.
Did you know that when you have a trauma in life, there is a physical change to the brain?
7:49 The Amygdala (pronounced Ah-mig-da-la) is the part of the brain that scans & processes experiences (that then become memories) looking for danger, and then places tags or associations within that experience so if it's encountered again in the future you can react quickly (hence why we can have triggers that don't always make sense like having anxiety/flashbacks around people who wear ball caps if someone wearing a ball cap attacked you in the past). With Yoongi some of his early traumatic experiences (like his Mom almost dying when she was still pregnant for him) were experienced non-verbally so there might not be a strong cognitive memory but it can still create emotional triggers/flashbacks and also beliefs about self can be formed around that time (like a child feeling responsible for their parent's near-death, which he has shared feeling). So he might not have remembered, but his amygdala is still creating emotional responses. The way he describes cutting himself here is that these experiences are in the past, but because of the way our brain is wired we continue to hurt ourselves and cause scars through triggers/flashbacks or even regret/anger/anxiety/depression/disassociation - whatever reaction we have to what is no longer in our present that no longer is to our benefit. I interpret him asking his amygdala to save him by releasing him from these emotional reactions/memories.
I love your reaction and how you are trying to understand his lyrics. BTS is this big not only because of their spectacular performances but also their heartfelt, deep, intellectual lyrics that only people who are willing to understand will know. People who look at them superficially will never get it.
The amygdala, also called the primitive brain, houses the memories of trauma. He really did have an accident that messed up his shoulder, and he needed surgery. BTS, and especially Suga, doesn't shy away from taking about mental health issues. He's been open about his fight with depression. He's asking his amygdala to help him work through his traumas.
You really figured it out👍😉 and Suga is came through that door in real life🙏♥️ Thank you for a smart reaction♥️
The amygdala is the side responsible for memories in the brain, so when Yoongi said “My Amygdala save me” and” Let's erase memories one by one” it meant that he was asking his Amygdala to make him forget all the bad memories in his life so that he survives all the pain and suffering past, he is a genius in every sense of the word.
Suga drew a painting og a heartbeat/music beat.
i really like ur reaction .. Yoongi's lyrics here are just precious..what i get when i hear this song its that no1 can save you except ur self.. u have to know ur name, ur own identity and try to make the best decisions for yourself.
Great reaction! Thanks for trying to figure these things out. Suga is a great writer and it's nice to see people respecting the work by trying to understand it.
You got it right. It is about coping from trauma. Amygdala is an almond shaped part of the brain that retains traumatic memories and makes people emotionally respond to them. Even after the trauma has passed, this is why people will still remain sensitive to it. In Daechwita, we all thought that the scar was from fighting against the unfair criticism and treatment from underground rappers and the kpop industry but in 'Amygdala' he shows that he gave it to himself by dwelling on the past. He is facing all his trauma head on and dealing with it so that he can move past it.
The first, second and third (the actual translation is second to the second) choice could be in reference to another of his songs 'Interlude:Shadow' - BTS (as SUGA) where he says 'doing the best is the first best' and that 'running away is the second best'. It could mean trying to do his best, then running away and then running away from running away. Or it could be mean doing the best with the hands he's dealt - 'Hope I made the best decisions'.
The lotus flower is very beautiful but it grows in muddy waters. In Asian cultures, it is a symbol for overcoming adversity.
You're funny and wholesome. I love how you're always doing research and trying to figure things out. And how deeply you relate and feel some of the things here. Thank you for such a nice reaction!
I can’t watch this video without crying.
This was such a great reaction; thank you so much! This song is absolutely amazing; I am so happy you enjoyed it. The things he sings about are things that happened to him; it's a very personal song. Appreciate you looking up the meaning of 'amygdala' while you watched. He did a tour for this album this spring/summer, and the last show is DID open the door and walk through it. Thank you for this reaction. Would love to see more, maybe some BTS reactions (Agust D/SUGA is a member of BTS). Fake Love or Black Swan I think would be great. Thanks again for reacting to Agust D.
Love your reaction and your interpretation of this 🔥
"4 piece chicken tender combo" 😂😂😂 I love your reaction. Suga has so much more music out there. Keep it coming!
Great Reaction! Suga has talk to us about his scooter accident and I remember him describing opening his eyes, his shoulder was crushed and the car's tire was an inch from his head.
Pronounced A-mig-da-la. He did try to commit suicide, one of the other members saved him. The Amygdala processes trauma. He's asking to be saved from it. He did a world solo tour this past year. At the end of the final concert, he walked through the door to end the concert. He's at peace now, just so you know.💜
Pro tip: At his final concert in Seoul, AgustD finally got thru the white door.
So Amygdala is a part of the brain that keeps memories, especially the bad ones. They're kinda buried deep, things that we don't wanna think abt
Here he is unpacking them one by one and try to confront them
And he wanna be free from all the bad memories
But at the end of the day, you can't erase them
It'll always be there forever
Just so you know... this is Suga's true story. He often writes about his own experiences, the pain and struggles, the depression he suffered. Amygdala is a song about him trying to forget his past. The motorcycle accident really happened to him. He used to work as a part-time delivery guy during their trainee days because he needs to make money to support his family. He suffered shoulder injury and he never told their company for the fear that he might be kicked out of BTS. He endured his shoulder injury while doing those intense dance choreography. In 2020, he couldn't bear it so he told his company and had to undergo shoulder surgery. He is so brave. Min Yoongi, his real name or AKA Suga/Agust D suffered a lot. He is known for his raw talent. He's not ashamed to express how he feels through his music. He writes, produce and compose his own music. Suga is his stage name when he is with BTS and Agust D is his stage name when he goes solo. He is very talented.
He was phenomenal in his D day concerts!!
Incredible reaction, thank you. SUGA/Agust d has released two mixtapes previously, with Agust D being the first released in 2016 and D-2 released in 2020, he recently released his first album called D-day, a few months ago he had his solo debut like the other members of BTS (BTS has not disintegrated, they simply took a break to fulfill their duty in military service.) I hope you can take the time to get to know these 7 guys and also react to all of Agust d/SUGA's works.
If you can also react to Agust d and give it to me by Agust d, please.
I like how serious you were to understand it. Great job. 👍💜
And the conclusion of all three Agust D albums and mvs happens in the last moment of the last day of his world tour “D-DAY The Final” in Seoul which is coming to theaters soon. He’s an incredible storyteller.
Love your reaction 💜💜💜 and love BTS!
Bingo! Your wise for your years young man. Truly appreciate your enthusiasm. Thanks💜💜💜
Thank you for your reacting, It was really great, enjoyed it ! I have to say you always has points when it comes to Agust D reactions. I´m gonna check out more of your stuff now. Thanks a lot !
First of all, I am so thankful Yoongi exists and he gifts us his music.
So my opinion on the meaning of the title and some lyrics and video is he was/is going through so much, and when you're there you don't see an exit, so he's begging his amygdala (the part of his brain that creates that serotonin and manages the emotion) to save him, to let him get over everything. Is like when you're down in that tunnel, you maybe wanna end things but at the same time you want to be saved, I think that's the case.
a kpop singers life is very hard... many of the best cant take it and end their lives too soon because they cant take it so cudos to Suga... the more i know about him the more i admire him. Not only overcome what others give up on but convert all those experiences into music that touches millions.
The amygdala is a tiny almond-shaped part of your brain (notice the version of him sitting and watching, and chowing down on almonds) that processes emotions. It holds on to memories-- ESPECIALLY emotionally-charged ones, like trauma or delight-- so you can react quickly if you're faced with the same event again. But that can backfire, because it makes it hard to properly let go of the really painful memories and heal.
He's pulling out all these tough memories now so he can work through them and be free of the trauma at last. And yes, the scar-- his music has been a BIG part of his dealing with those tough emotions and healing. So in a way, he created the character of Agust D as a way to get free of that dark room of bad memories (and NOT k___ himself).
During his concert last august the live was amazing when he do this song. He literally lie down in the stage like dying people… the concert is full package show
Actually Suga is fucking genius, he put a door on the stage at one of his concerts and ended the concert by getting out of the door, a way of telling us that he made the way out and he saved himself, I'm so happy for him, also he changed a lot in the way I think, after listening to “Amygdala” for the First time, I felt so much better, I felt that I'm not alone, I’m so Reconciled with myself now, I'm so grateful
I took the “Amygdala please save me” as him asking his amygdala to help him process the traumas and emotions so that he can heal. The amygdala controls our emotions and it also stores all of our traumas. He’s crying out to heal from his past. 💜
You’re so quick with these videos and songs. Appreciate your analysis! 🎉
Also, if you look at the part where the door closes on him. We see that up to this point he’s dressed in grey lying on the couch. He’s weakened. The door opens, he walks slowly towards it because he’s trying to drag himself towards the light . The door slams shut and all of a sudden he’s wearing black while the lights go crazy. He’s now trapped in there with his hectic feelings and thoughts. He tries to open the door and can’t. He’s stuck in deep with no hope. Eventually he resigns himself to his fate and slumps on the floor.
Meanwhile the outside world version of himself senses something is wrong and runs back to try and help him. Because the real him knows this can’t continue. It will destroy him.
The imagery is very vivid and mirrors the sentiments of the words. So clever!
Love this song. I won't repeat what everyone else said. You got it 😂 love your reactions. My favorite song is Agust D mv. I think you may like it
you've gotta follow up the ending for this trilogy with the SUGA l AGUST D D-DAY TOUR. Because the start of the concert is the Amygdala ending scene where he laying down on the stage floor raining and in his final concert, he ends it with AGUST D walking off the stage closing the door behind him (Amygdala door) with a really beautiful smile :) and he did it with Armys.
it is beautiful really.
you should wrap this reaction up with D-DAY TOUR 👍

Just subbed, will be patiently waitin for some more heat from yah! Thanks and sorry for the long comment, I just got so excited watching this one😅
His trauma is such a bop. He’s an amazing producer. 😩
His accident was way back when they were first starting out and he was terrified that being damaged was going to get him kicked out of the group, so he hid it. He struggled so hard to get signed that he didn't want to jeopardize it. he told them he fell down the stairs or something.
When the label found out, they were horrified, took him to the hospital, had it checked out. But at that point, they were scheduled for tours and the group was officially *launching* and he had to make the decision -- surgery and leave the group (so he wouldn't hold them back), or pain management and therapy to keep the group whole?
he did pain management for years until he finally got surgery in 2020 (because of lockdown when they couldn't tour anyway). I think it's part of why he has such disdain for people who pop pills when there are people who really need pain management.
That injury is why he cannot serve in active duty in the military (for which they are all required to enlist in South Korea). So he is working in the military's social services sector to complete his duties.
You are fast becoming my favorite reactor. Fun fact…At his last concert before going the military, he finally was able to open the door and walk through it.
Well i don't know if am about to explain this right but I'll try
Some people believe this is the last song in the agust d trilogy but it's actually were it all started
Agust d is a bad ver of his personality that lounged for fame and money and it was caused by his past trauma he's speaking abt ( his poor family ; his mother heart surgery she got when he was born that's why he said things i don't even remember; and his father cancer ; his motorcycle accident he couldn't tell to anybody because he was afraid the company might kick him out ) the accident is actually the main event here it was caused because he was a delivery guy and went out in high speed in a rainy day the scene is shown in this mv
So amygdala is a part of the brain that is responsible for painful memories so it reminds you of it everytime you're going near something that's related to the accident and cause you fear to protect you from doing it again
That's how he was trapped through his trauma and ended up with trying to suic*de multiple times but he finally got over it as you can see he kills the bad guy and free himself finally
Those last years suga was able to confess to us his struggles and there's a scene in D Day tour the final concert where he opened the door that locked him all of the time
Thankfully he was able to overcome his struggles
Note : all of this happened in real life + he was about to commit sui*ide by taking a huge amount of sleeping pills if it weren't for jin ( his bandmate ) saving him
Edit : ah and i forgot something too
You can see he was eating almond instead of pills because there's a theory that says almond is good for the brain because of a book he was reading during " in the soop " season one where there was a mother feeding her child almond because she thought it's good for brain
Suga used to be stucked in bad memories and choices. He said I don't know your name because he did not reconize himself. Please hear The last and pay attention on lyrics
Ahhhh, watching you go through this was so fun! I love watching someone who enjoys diving into songs that have obvious messages.
Also, I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but Suga is just one of the BTS rapline. I think you'd enjoy the other members as well. Check out the Cyphers!
He is eating alm9nds, not pills. Almonds help with depression. Also, he read the book Almond in In The Soop after Namjoon finished it.
This song always hits. D-day (the album that Haegeum & Amygdala are from) is one of the greatest albums released imo.
Check out AGUST D- ‘The Last’, it’s similar to this song where he’s vulnerable. But it’s one of the best songs I’ve ever heard. Not a MV, but it’s so fire.
Ahhh this song always makes me cry....because this Real life of SUGA (Agust D)
Y en su último concierto pudo abrir la puerta y salir 🥰
True story. Just had his shoulder rebuilt in 2021. This is why he is in civil service instead of military right now.
I recommend his song Snooze i love the lyrics and message in this song. And the song The Last which tells you more about his past
So the Amygdala isn't just for processing emotions in general but it's basically like your warning signal. It's the part of your brain that helps detect danger or harm. I think him calling out for his Amygdala is him calling out his brain to protect him from harming himself. Your reaction is beautiful btw and I love how different kinds of people can feel and love different kinds of music. It's amazing. Everyone interprets things differently and that's totally okay.. its kinda the purpose of music 😊
Hi Terell, Loving your detective work by looking up stuff by yourself. Psst. That scar was on all 3 of the Trilogy. Agust D is his name spelled backwards SUGA and the DT is his hometown: Daegu Town 💜💜💜
You're great at reacting. Really immersing yourself in the lyrics and the MV. You might wanna analyse the music and the beat a little bit more, but otherwise you're doing great. I hope your channel will grow. You got a new subscriber 😊
Your reaction are mad entertaining, you're good at keeping the viewers attention. Keep it up lol
He has social anxiety and depression...He writes inspiring songs often...He was injured pre debut in that crash (his shoulder) ...and just dealt with the pain all these years until he ultimately had surgery.
Honestly it breaks my heart to see him like that i just luv him so much he is like a friend who i really care for but have not met but i just hope he stays strong and happyy he is in military right now 🥺🥺💜💜💜
Amygdala stores all memories, unwanted memories, trauma. Stuff you want to forget but you can’t cause it’s already stored in your brain. Say veterans who got ptsd from fighting in wars. They have PTSD because of what they saw in war and now can never forget it. Agust D wants out of the trauma.
Amygdala is in charge of flight or fight response in a human being. 😅 it's also in charge of memories so he wants to fight through the memories but see how he's locked in the room of memories. And yes the scar he gave it to himself, which shows why he was fighting with two sides of himself in Daechwita and Haegeum. 😅
Amygdala is also responsible for trauma and he is talking about his trauma which is controlled by amygdala, he want to come out from his trauma that's why there is a door which is locked him in the room of trauma.
"Hold on, he gave me a four piece chicken and a combe right now!" Man, I love you!!! Really good job with this reaction, analysis and breakdown
one of the interpretations is that the amygdala is responsible for holding emotional trauma, so when he ask it to save him and when he says let’s erase it is about him wanting to move on, asking his brain to process it and move on. when the door opens it’s like there is the rest of your life, you have to exit this room full of trauma and regret and continue to go on, but he can’t, he can’t process everything that happened, that’s why he asks for help to his own amygdala
Whoo good analysis really I'm impressed that you searched and found what Suga meant in his song. really thank you for doing a real analysis
