This is the third music video of SUGA's as Agust D to reach over 100 million views, following the title tracks 'Agust D' and 'Daechwita' from his MIX TAPE and 'D-2,' respectively.

The music video features a noir film-like atmosphere with a detailed story and tense direction, leaving a strong impression with the dramatic confrontation and conclusion between the characters 'Being' and 'Exister.' Furthermore, 'D-DAY' is the final chapter of the 'Agust D Trilogy,' following 'Agust D' and 'D-2.' Agust D wrote, composed, and produced all the songs on this album, leading the overall work from planning to concept and structure, expressing his own musical world.
