The film dives into the production process of Jungkook’s first single “Seven” (2023), which features rapper Latto, and his first album “Golden” (2023). “Seven” placed No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and “Golden” was No. 2 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

The film will debut Jungkook’s recording session of “Standing Next to You,” the lead track for “Golden.”

Jungkook was recently nominated for Best Collaboration and Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards.
