Suga Sets Date for Late-Night Solo Debut on ‘Fallon’
Suga is headed to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon for his late-night solo debut, and his performance is coming sooner than you think.
The BTS rapper will stop by the late-night talk show on May 1 for both an interview with host Jimmy Fallon and a special musical number from D-DAY, his brand-new solo album as Agust D. The Tonight Show shared the announcement via social media on Monday (April 24) with a funny video of Fallon pouring a heaping amount of “suga” into his coffee, magically transforming the brew into an image of the K-pop idol. “Just a spoonful of #SUGA,” the show tweeted using a handy coffee emoji. “@BTS_twt’s SUGA makes his U.S. late night solo debut May 1 on #FallonTonight! #SUGAonFallon.”
Though it will be Suga’s first time at The Tonight Show studio without his bandmates, he’s previously stopped by Fallon on 10 other occasions — including a weeklong stint back in 2020 for BTS Week.
The appearance will be just the latest in Suga’s string of promotional appearances and activities related to D-DAY. He’s also currently in the midst of a five-week run of Agust D Radio on Apple Music, which started ahead of the album’s release with “Ep. 1 Dream” and will continue each Monday through May 15. Meanwhile, ARMY can also watch the lead-up to D-DAY‘s release on Disney+ thanks to Suga’s new documentary Road to D-DAY, streaming now.
Prior to Suga’s album release, multiple songs from the studio set charted on the Hot Trending Songs tally, with second single “Haegeum” landing in the top spot.
