Disney+ Hotstar has recently released the highly anticipated docuseries, BTS Monuments: Beyond the Star to celebrate and look back on the journey of the world’s biggest boy bands.

The episodic series features never-before-seen interviews, performances and other BTS (behind-the-scenes) moments with the Bangtan Boys – a name given to the collective members of BTS, including RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook.

The show has eight episodes dedicated to highlighting the band’s journey in the last 10 years. BTS fans (also known as ARMY) are taken through the highs and lows of making it in the K-Pop industry. Beyond the highly competitive trainee qualifiers and grueling training, the show captures the success of the band as it was catapulted into international fame.

The Bangtan Boys definitely leaves an impression in the series. Through the episodes, viewers embark on a journey through the BTS experience as it becomes a household name. The show also explores the thoughts of each member as they delve more into their doubts and motivations. With unexpected challenges like sudden fame, burnout, and the recent pandemic, one of the core themes centered around perseverance.

Overall, the show does a good job at giving fans an intimate look into the band’s thoughts while putting the spotlight on important milestones. However, those who are generally unfamiliar with the band or K-Pop may find it more difficult to follow along. With mentions of several band-references and references to K-Pop specific events, the docuseries is very much an ode to fans.

You can catch BTS Monuments: Beyond the Star on Disney+ Hotstar. Looking for more show recommendations? Check out our recent article on 10 movies you should not miss out on here.
