At least two of the five new BTS titles will be shot with the entire band, including a taped concert special in Los Angeles and a behind-the-scenes documentary series.
In a recorded video message shared with CNN Business, the band said they were looking forward to showing fans"a more up-close and personal side of us."
The new tie-up with Disney reflects that. One forthcoming title is a reality show that will see V, a BTS star, head on vacation with other Korean celebrities, the company said. Last year, for example, fans worldwide buzzed over"Squid Game," the South Korean hit from Netflix that became the company's top show globally. Disney said it has also found success with titles like"Snowdrop," a Korean series that has become one of its most-watched titles throughout Asia recently.
The Hollywood giant said at the time that it was commissioning new shows from South Korea, Japan, Australia, Taiwan and Indonesia. Many of the programs will be presented in local languages, from Bahasa Indonesia to Mandarin.
