BTS ARMY focused documentary FOREVER WE ARE YOUNG set theatrical release date
“There is no BTS without ARMY and no ARMY without BTS,” co-directors Grace Lee and Patty Ahn shared in a statement. “We’re excited for audiences to go on an emotional journey and meet a fandom that made us laugh, cry, and think.”
Trafalgar Releasing will distribute the film, which captures the international scope of BTS Army. The documentary features fans attending a BTS-focused ReactorCon in Lewisville, Texas, as well as a dance instructor in Seoul who specializes in BTS choreography. It will also zoom in on the sector of the fandom that has supported the group since 2013, breaking chart records and shaping them into an undeniable part of pop music history.
“FOREVER WE ARE YOUNG dives into the passionate fandom that catapulted 21st century pop icons BTS into a global household name,” a synopsis of the documentary reads. “Defying stereotypes of pop fans as screaming teen girls, ARMY is an intergenerational, culturally savvy, and socially active movement that is as diverse as the world itself. The film captures the powerful spirit of activism and collectivity that make ARMY a symbol of hope and unity in our ever-fractured world.”
