Over the course of their careers, BTS‘s members went from struggling trainees to wealthy K-Pop stars. Even so, they still have their “broke” moments that fans can relate to.
BTS’s Suga
On March 9, Suga celebrated his 33rd birthday with a Weverse live, cake, messages from his members, and more.

To watch Weverse live broadcasts ad-free and with real-time, auto-generated subtitles, fans must pay for a digital membership.
Suga found that out first-hand during his birthday live. He was surprised when an ad popped up, and he had to wait for it to finish playing.
🐱 “there’s an ad while I’m watching the live!”
the fact none of them pays for anything sends me so bad 😭 pic.twitter.com/rMNMV5dUT0
