What's the Story?

In JUNG KOOK: I AM STILL, BTS members are serving their time in South Korea's military, but their youngest member, Jung Kook, hasn't yet been called up. So the talented performer takes the opportunity to work on some new songs, traveling to the U.S. to work with top-shelf producers and launch his solo career. His hard work begins to pay off, but he's faced with some very human challenges. Can he deliver the performances his fans expect?

A stellar example of hard work meeting talent, this documentary about a K-pop superstar's solo tour's got some endearing messages. Less of a "capital P" personality than his fellow bandmates, Jung Kook's energy is poured into pleasing his fans in Jung Kook: I Am Still, making his story all the more appealing.

Fans of music documentaries can appreciate the skill and perseverance that this gifted performer brings to the series. BTS ARMY will certainly be pleased with this effort.
