What to expect

The first ever official BTS book.

A Sunday Times Bestseller

Celebrate the first decade of BTS as they embark on a new era with their global Arirang tour, with untold stories and behind-the-scenes revelations from their best loved albums. A must-listen for BTS ARMY, casual fans and curious onlookers.


After taking their first step into the world on June 13, 2013, BTS celebrated the 10th anniversary of their debut in June 2023. They have risen to the peak as an iconic global artist and here, in their first official book, they look back on those first ten years.

BTS share personal, behind-the-scenes stories of their journey through interviews and more than three years of in-depth coverage by Korean pop culture critic Myeongseok Kang. Presented chronologically in seven chapters spanning from their origins as a group to the celebration of their tenth anniversary, their vivid voices and opinions harmonize to tell a sincere, lively, and deep tale.

With unprecedented access granted to Kang and individual interviews conducted in person and without a camera or makeup, Beyond the Story illuminates BTS’s musical journey from multiple angles.

Packed with album tracklists, a major milestone timeline and over 330 QR codes scattered throughout. As digital artists, BTS communicate with the world through the internet and the special features of this book allow readers to immediately access trailers, music videos, and more online to have a rich understanding of all the key moments in the band’s history.

Beyond the Story is a remarkable archive – truly everything about BTS in one volume.
