Revealed on April 17, the Concept Photo ‘Being’ shows SUGA in a black suit in a refined setting. On the contrary, the Concept Photo ‘Exister’ disclosed today portrays him in a rebellious mood in a rough setting. While the ‘Being’ version represents what exists in the present, ‘Exister’ version symbolizes ‘transcendence.’ Both concepts visualize the moments of Agust D’s trilogy as it reaches the finale with the album D-DAY.
