Recap
The previous episode of BTS opened up with the title “Adolosence” after the first episode, “The beginning”. This episode was a complete dive into the struggle of all the seven members of the group to come to the top.
Each member opens up with their thoughts and feelings when they realize the number of people looking after them is huge. The BTS, who started with only meme 100 fans, have come to the top where they were holding a concert with over 20,000 people.
They express their love of doing the concerts and how they have been overwhelmed with the love from the army. Then, we see a documentary of BTS holding their first concert, Red Bullet, in 2014.
The first concert was in 2014 with 6000 fans, in 2015 with 4,425 and 4th concert in 2015 total of 13,500 fans and in 2016 the 5th concert with a total of 25,000 fans. Jungkook says in their fifth concert, “I am happy to perform in front of so many Army soldiers,” and breaks down in tears.
It was emotional for the team to see so many fans attending the concert. They started with a little dream of just making good music and being known by people. Then we witness how BTS entered the US market and the global market.
But everything has an end, right? In the next episode of this documentary, viewers can expect how BTS planned to renew their contract again, the difficulty they would face after becoming recognised by so many people and the immeasurable pain they had to endure so far.
