BTS Suga’s Guitarist Brings Back “Yoongi, Marry Me” At Agust D Concert
“Yoongi, marry me” was once considered an iconic meme and reoccurring joke in the K-Pop community, particularly the BTS fandom, ARMY.
While some might think it started with the BTS members reading marriage proposals directed toward Suga during live broadcasts…

Others think that the joke originated with Suga himself.
Regardless of its origin, it became an instant viral sensation that spread outside the internet. One would often spot “Yoongi, marry me” signs at sporting events, concerts, etc.

Some ARMYs would even comment, “Yoongi, marry me,” during live broadcasts whether or not Suga was present. It appeared the BTS members were in on the joke, too, as they often read it anyway.

🐰 Hey hey, "Yoongi marry me" is coming out kk pic.twitter.com/dHQkzEPqVN— 슈가젤리🍬(busy🥀) (@SUGAJelly9339) February 1, 2023
But ARMYs have been suspicious that such comments have now annoyed the BTS members as both RM and V called out commenters during their live broadcasts. Likewise, Jungkook chose to refrain from reading comments during a live broadcast.
Namjoon: Many people are writing strange chat.
🐨 You guys have changed.
🐨 I think it's better to do a live without looking at the commentsHope this is a lesson for some of those weverse weirdos, we need to start cleaning the chats: pic.twitter.com/OAfm3GmV0r

🐻 alright. whenever i go live, i always get a few classic questions. one is “yoongi marry me,” then there’s “what’s a tmi/random fact?” “selfie”… “have you heard of mongolia? can you come to europe? can i go to sweden?” guys, of course i know all of these places.

So, ARMYs have discouraged fellow ARMYs from commenting, “Yoongi, marry me.” Some even went so far as to report these comments during live broadcasts.

The amount of "Yoongi Marry Me" comments disappearing before I can even report them is very pleasing to me.

Similarly, many ARMYs have encouraged the fandom to refrain from using “Yoongi, marry me” signs during Suga’s Agust D “D-DAY” TOUR IN THE US.

Still, many ARMYs had already planned on wedding dress attire along with “Yoongi, marry me” signs. Well, these ARMYs are not the only ones.
They really said, "MARRY ME, YOONGI" 👰♀️#SUGA_AgustD_TOUR_in_LA #D_DAY_TOUR #DDAY #SUGA #AgustD #슈가 #AgustD_SUGA_Tour_in_LA pic.twitter.com/RqlpyInQXe

At Suga’s recent concert at Kia Forum in Los Angeles, California, on May 11, one of the band members got in on it too. The guitarist held up a mobile phone, reading “Yoongi Marry Me.”

The band has stolen ARMYs’ hearts during the tour. We might even let the guitarist cut in line!
Suga’s response was even cuter! He couldn’t help but laugh when he saw the guitarist’s phone message.
