Since the start of their indefinite hiatus in June 2022, the members of BTS have embarked on individual creative journeys, showcasing their diverse talents beyond the group's collective endeavors. Their respective solo projects encompass a range of artistic ventures, including music collaborations and the release of captivating documentary films.

Jimin, one of BTS' renowned vocalists, made headlines as he lent his distinctive voice to a track in the highly anticipated 10th installment of the "Fast and Furious" series. Collaborating with American hip-hop artist Kodak Black and rapper NLE Choppa, Jimin featured on "Angel, Part. 1," a standout song from the franchise's original soundtrack. The full music video, released on Wednesday, further amplified the anticipation surrounding his participation. Notably, Jimin became the first Korean artist to contribute to a "Fast and Furious" film soundtrack. His recent solo album, "Face," has also achieved great success, with his track "Like Crazy" soaring to the No. 1 position on Billboard's Hot 100 Singles chart.

In the action-packed film "Fast X," the storyline revolves around Dom Toretto, portrayed by Vin Diesel, as he confronts Dante Reyes, played by Jason Momoa, a vengeful antagonist seeking revenge for his father's death and determined to harm Dom's family. The movie celebrated its global premiere in Korea on Wednesday, adding to the excitement surrounding Jimin's participation and BTS' continued global influence.

Simultaneously, two captivating documentary films focusing on BTS members Suga and J-Hope are set to hit theaters worldwide, marking a significant milestone in celebration of the group's 10th anniversary. "Suga: Road to D-Day" and "J-Hope in the Box" offer fans an intimate look into the lives and creative processes of these talented artists.

Suga's documentary delves into his songwriting journey, shedding light on the immense dedication and hard work he pours into his music. By sharing personal struggles and concerns, the film provides a glimpse into Suga's life both in and out of the spotlight, portraying the multifaceted nature of his role as an artist, producer, and musician. Additionally, Suga embarked on a solo world tour in April, mesmerizing audiences in nine cities across the globe, including the United States, Indonesia, Japan, and Thailand. To further engage fans, Suga, who also goes by the stage name Agust D, plans to host a live viewing of his upcoming Japan concert in cinemas worldwide. In Korea, the concert will be available in 20 branches of Lotte Cinema on June 3.

J-Hope's documentary captures approximately 200 days of his journey as he produces his first solo album and achieves a momentous milestone—headlining the renowned Lollapalooza music festival in 2022, becoming the first Korean act to do so. The film showcases J-Hope's creative process and highlights his historic performance at the major U.S. festival, leaving an indelible mark on the global music scene.

Previously released on Disney Plus and Weverse, the documentaries received high acclaim from fans worldwide. In Korea, these captivating films will be exclusively screened at Lotte Cinema branches before being subsequently released in the United States, United Kingdom, and Japan, allowing audiences to immerse themselves in the artistic journeys of Suga and J-Hope.
