    Get ready, ARMY! BTS member RM is coming to theaters this December with his exciting documentary film titled "RM: Right People, Wrong Place."

    Directed by Lee Seok-jun and produced by HYBE, the film showcases the making of RM’s second solo album, "Right Place, Wrong Person," which was released in May. It will officially premiere on December 5 in South Korea and more than 90 other countries and regions around the world.

    On October 30, RM announced the global release on the official BTS social media, sharing the film's stylish main poster. The poster features a creative collage of RM captured in various moments and spaces.

    "RM: Right People, Wrong Place" is a special film as it is the first K-Pop documentary to be invited to the Open Cinema section of the 29th Busan International Film Festival. It had its world premiere on October 7 at the Busan Cinema Center, where it was received with enthusiasm by the audience. The film's powerful story and stunning visuals left a memorable impression, earning positive reviews from viewers.

    The documentary takes us through RM's eight-month journey to finish his second solo album, featuring honest interviews and insights.

The music video for the title track "LOST!" from his album recently won the Craft: Cinematography award at the 2024 Berlin Commercial Awards. At the CICLOPE Festival in Germany, it won gold in Direction and Production Design, as well as bronze in Cinematography and Color Grading.

    At the UK Music Video Awards 2024, RM made history as the first K-Pop artist to be nominated for Best Alternative Video International and Best Production Design in a Video.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
