BTS gathers in LA to record their album Arirang in this documentary offering unprecedented access to the band as they enter a new era.
This feature-length documentary chronicles the long-awaited return of pop royalty, BTS.
The film offers unprecedented access, following BTS as they come back together to begin a reunion set to be etched in pop culture history, while reflecting on the journey that transformed seven Korean members into global icons.
Since their debut in 2013, BTS built one of the most devoted fan communities in the world.
After completing South Korea's mandatory military service, the seven members reunite in Los Angeles to make music together, returning to a shared creative space shaped by time apart and personal change.
As millions of fans await the comeback of the decade, BTS confronts quieter questions: how to begin again, how to honour the past without being bound by it, and how to move forward together.
Through moments of doubt, laughter and rediscovery, they create new music that reflects who they are now — culminating in what they hope will become a landmark album of its time.
Intimate, emotional and often joyful, BTS: THE RETURN is a story only BTS can tell: a portrait of resilience, brotherhood and reinvention.
