BTS: Permission to Dance on Stage - LA (2022)
History in the Making
If you always wondered why it was BTS of all acts, - korean or international, to rise to the very top of the music world, this is the movie to watch. You need to see them do what they do best: perform live (yes, the mics are on) and you need to understand the lyrical debth in their music aside from the dyna-na-na of their three english titles.
BTS are performers on a level we don't see anymore today. They love what they do and they are the very best at it. But aside from that, BTS' main lyricist, Kim Namjoon, is one of the greatest lyricists in pop history in general. BTS tell their own stories, overflowing with references to art and literature. Them writing in Korean instead of english obvioulsy poses a barrier to most people trying to form an opinion about this group but it doesn't have to be that way.
Disney did a great job making this amazing live performance available WITH well translated korean lyrics.
A unique chance to see history in the making and a great point to start if you always wanted to know what all the fuss is really about.
