The announcement came shortly before BIGHIT MUSIC confirmed RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook are preparing to fulfill their mandatory military duties and have initiated the military enlistment process, making new behind-the-scenes OT7 content even more meaningful.

Disney+ and BIGHIT MUSIC have already teased some of the upcoming documentary footage and released the main trailer today, showing just over a minute of clips from the eight episodes to come on December 20.
One particular moment caught ARMYs’ attention and had many wondering if they were emotionally ready to see the full scene.

Due to the increased travel restrictions and guidelines in place internationally at the time, as well as overall uncertainty during the COVID-19 pandemic, BTS’s MAP OF THE SOUL TOUR, which was scheduled to take place from April until September 2020, was postponed and eventually canceled.
Though understanding of the circumstances, many fans were heartbroken as it would have been one of their last opportunities to see the group live before the members began their mandatory military service.
The documentary trailer shows the moment the members were notified that their Seoul Map Of The Soul Tour shows, which were meant to kick off their five months of performing at stadiums and domes worldwide, were canceled.
After briefly showing the members’ initial reactions, a montage of footage played, featuring the members on their own as they admitted they were feeling lost.
Although fans were aware of the tour’s cancellation and the members’ disappointment that they couldn’t meet ARMYs as intended in 2020, many ARMYs were still not ready to relive the moment through BTS’s candid reaction captured in the documentary trailer.
