BTS’ Jung Kook Sets Release Date for ‘I Am Still’ Documentary: Here’s When It Hits Theaters

Details of Jung Kook‘s highly anticipated solo documentary I Am Still are finally here, including the project’s release date in theaters worldwide.

According to a release, the film will capture the BTS star’s development as a solo artist, starting with the historic ascent of his single “Seven (feat. Latto)” to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in July 2023. Three months later, he dropped his debut album Golden, which peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

“Delving into his creative process, unwavering work ethic and the unique challenges faced by a global superstar, the film presents exclusive, never-before-seen footage and interviews alongside electrifying concert performances,” reads the release. “This poignant portrait showcases Jung Kook’s unwavering dedication and artistic evolution.”

Directed by Junsoo Park and produced by Jiwon Yoon, Jung Kook: I Am Still is set to premiere Sept. 18, with limited screenings worldwide in over 120 countries and regions. Tickets go on sale August 21.

The announcement comes a month after the 26-year-old singer’s label, BigHit, cryptically teased that I Am Still was “coming soon” to theaters, withholding any further details and sending ARMY spiralling. “WHAT IS THIS,” one person tweeted at the time, while another person wrote with disbelief, “WHAT DO YOU MEAN JUNGKOOK ON CINEMAS!?!?!?!?!?!?”

Jung Kook previously hinted that he was working on a documentary about his solo efforts in a November episode of Suchwita, the YouTube talk show hosted by his bandmate SUGA. “It follows the process from ‘Seven’ to my album,” he said at the time, according to the show’s English translation. “When you film with other members, the cameras aren’t all focused on you. But I always feel kind of pressured talking in front of a camera alone.”

The “3D” musician is also currently starring in a travel docu-series alongside bandmate Jimin on Disney+. Chronicling the friends’ trips through destinations in the U.S., South Korea and Japan, Are You Sure?! premiered Aug. 8 and will continue dropping episodes through Sept. 19.
