BTS Monuments: Beyond The Star: Welcome
Entering a new wave of difficulties with the then-onsetting pandemic and the restrictions surrounding it, BTS’ docu-series shows how the septet practically stepped over the stones to climb much higher than anyone’s anticipation to be able to earn global accolades. With the likes of an Artist of the Year win much similar to a Daesang in the Korean music industry and moments like a silent concert, the guys were on the right path.
BTS: Begin And Again
Picking up from a canceled world tour, the stars finally began returning to performing on stage. Be it with the fans’ masks on and a clatter sound meeting their ears instead of screams, RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, V, and Jungkook saw to it that their music and performances would reach their fans and presented an example for others to follow. Not letting the hurdles stop them from going further into their musical world, the team explored different opportunities.
BTS’ tenacity has been clearly displayed in the series, and combined with their moments seeking an out through traveling, finding hobbies, joking around, and just being regular boys takes the viewers one step closer to them.
The show moves on to the members working on their then-upcoming anthology album and is expected to continue into them unlocking chapter 2 of BTS with the announcement that came on June 14.
