BTS star Min Yoon-gi, better known by his stage names, Suga and Agust D, appeared on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” and revealed he has a special pre-concert tradition with the band that’s joining him on his tour as a solo artist.

“I actually take a shot of whiskey with the band before I go on stage,” Suga told Fallon. “For real. We take a shot together — then we go on stage.”

Fallon then revealed that he had brought two shot glasses full of whiskey for him and Suga to shoot together.

Upon sniffing the glass, Suga appeared pleasantly surprised that the whiskey was real. Fallon congratulated and thanked the pop star for joining him on the show, and the two proceeded to down the shot of whiskey.

Unfortunately, Suga didn’t reveal what kind of whiskey he enjoys shooting the most, nor did Fallon reveal which whiskey he and Suga took a shot of on the show.

Last month, Suga released a solo LP, “D-Day,” under the moniker Agust D.

Last month, BTS member J-Hope, entered a South Korean boot camp to begin his 18-month compulsory military service. Jin, the oldest BTS member at 30, was the first group member to enter the army.

All able-bodied South Korean males aged 18 to 35 are legally required to enlist in the army, so Suga, who turned 30 in March, will need to serve his time within the next five years unless granted an exemption.
