BTS' Suga Takes Over Twitter's Worldwide Trends As Fans Celebrate His Birthday

As BTS’ Suga rang in his 26th birthday, ARMY celebrated the occasion by taking over Twitter with an outpouring of love for the singer and producer!

Suga officially turned 26 years old (by international reckoning) on March 9, and shortly after midnight KST, BTS’s fans began trending numerous hashtags related to the idol in honor of his special day.

As of 1:43 a.m. KST, six of the top nine worldwide trends on Twitter were dedicated to Suga. The social media platform’s highest-trending topics included #OurFirstLoveYoongi, #HAPPYSUGADAY, MIn Yoongi, #WhatAReliefYoongiWasBorn, #SOPE, and a hashtag in Korean that references a lyric from BTS’s “Fire“: “Yoongi, live your life however you want; it’s all yours anyway.”

Suga responded to his fans’ birthday wishes by sharing an affectionate message of gratitude on Twitter. In addition to posting a couple of selfies, the BTS member wrote, “Thank you, ARMY! I will work hard this year as well!! I love you.”

Or Yunki Min.

They call me
Genius Producer

Always
Surpass your expectation”
