The internet basically stopped for a second when one of the biggest stars on the planet finally showed off his roommate. Suga, who is back from his military service, is clearly enjoying the quiet life. Just an hour ago, he posted a new set of photos on his Instagram handle, @agustd, wishing his fans a Happy New Year. And the post is all about his cat, Tang. This isn’t just any pet, though. Fans of BTS have long known that he is often compared to a feline himself. And now he has a tiny black rescue to prove it. The name Tang is actually short for Seoltang. It means sugar in Korean. Which is just perfect.
BTS member Suga offers a closer look at his cat’s antics
The first photo in the set is a total mood. Tang is just peeking out from inside the edge of a bathtub. You can only see those big, inquisitive eyes and some perky ears. The rest of him is hidden. And then the next shot shows him way up high. He is perched on a shelf or maybe the fridge. He is peeking around a wall from his high vantage point.
Tang definitely has that curious cat energy. He seems to be everywhere at once. Suga also shared a much more peaceful moment. The third photo is just Tang tucked under some cozy bed covers. He looks like he is in dreamland. BTS fans remember when Suga first introduced the cat during a live broadcast in December 2025.
It was a huge deal because he hadn’t done a solo live in two years. And everyone noticed how calm he looked. Like the cat was actually helping him relax after his time away. It is a very different vibe from the high-energy stage performances everyone is used to. The last photo is the one that really got people talking. It is a close-up of Tang’s face. He has these big green eyes. And he is even sticking his tongue out just a tiny bit. It is incredibly goofy.
Within just one hour, the post hit over 1.7 million likes. Tang is definitely living his best life. He went from being a rescue to having 51 million people obsessing over his bathtub antics. He probably has no idea his dad is a global icon.
