Book introduction

/ 10th anniversary of BTS' debut, the first official book publication

/ BTS as we know it, telling the story beyond

After taking their first step into the world on June 13, 2013, BTS will celebrate their 10th anniversary in June 2023. Now that he has risen to the peak as a global artist and icon to the point where no more modifiers are needed and has opened another chapter, he is reminding himself of the meaning of today through his music activities so far. After many years of preparation and production, the first official book about BTS, published by the agency Big Hit Music (BIGHIT MUSIC). And the most curious story that BTS has never heard before.

/ In the Mood for Love, the first record of that youth
/ More than 3 years of in-depth coverage, and directly told by BTS through interviews
/ Team's footsteps and behind-the-scenes stories

Kang Myeong-seok, who has written about K-pop and other Korean pop culture in various media, covers in-depth, chronologically in seven chapters from before the debut of BTS to the present through more than three years of coverage. Based on a keen insight and comprehensive understanding of the domestic and international popular music industry, they illuminate their musical journey from various angles and discover its significance. In this way, while maintaining my objective perspective as an observer, I have included in this book their vivid voices and opinions through individual interviews with BTS. In interviews that have been conducted over the past two years without a camera or makeup, BTS tells a more sincere and deeper story than ever before.
