Netflix has partnered with HYBE to bring the historic comeback event to audiences worldwide.

The live special will be directed by Hamish Hamilton and produced by Done + Dusted, with HYBE and BIGHIT MUSIC serving as executive producers.
The live event follows the announcement of BTS’ fifth studio album, ARIRANG, described as a deeply reflective project that explores the group’s identity and roots.

The documentary follows BTS as they reunite in Los Angeles to create music together after time apart, reflecting on personal growth, creative renewal and the challenge of beginning again.
According to the official synopsis, the film captures moments of doubt, laughter and rediscovery as BTS confronts questions about how to honour their past while moving forward together.
