In a recent live session on August 28, renowned producer Jang Yi Jeong, also known as EL CAPITXN, offered a subtle yet comforting gesture that has resonated deeply with BTS fans. As SUGA navigates the challenges of his ongoing DUI case, EL CAPITXN’s simple action provided a sense of reassurance to ARMYs worldwide.
EL CAPITXN’s Live Session Comforts ARMYs
During his late-night live interaction from his recording studio, EL CAPITXN—often referred to by fans as “the handsome DJ”—was asked by a fan to give a thumbs-up if SUGA was doing okay. With a warm smile, he complied, a moment that has since been interpreted by fans as a sign of his support for the BTS member.
EL CAPITXN’s gesture comes at a critical time, as SUGA, also known by his stage name Agust D, is embroiled in legal issues following a DUI incident that occurred on August 6 in Seoul’s Hannam Dong area. According to reports, SUGA was seen operating an electric scooter after a night out, which resulted in a fall that prompted police intervention.
