All the movies and shows BTS have appeared in over the years

BTS’s two-season reality series In the SOOP captured the group unwinding in a remote cabin, balancing downtime with the same discipline that built their career. The show aired eight episodes in 2020 and five more in 2021, giving fans an extended look at how the seven members recharge between tours and recording sessions. Their early screen work, however, showed the grind that came first—endless rehearsals, quick variety bits, and the occasional charity stop that kept them grounded long before stadium stages and streaming deals.

Rookie King (2013)

BTS’s first on-camera job was Rookie King, a variety series that spoofed other programs. The members rotated through roles such as news anchors, chefs, and basketball players, with the trailer spotlighting their earliest synchronized choreography. Viewers watched them run a bowling alley segment, cook on cue, and attempt a full-court game as a single unit.

American Hustle Life (2014)

The group traveled to Los Angeles for two weeks of hip-hop lessons from Warren G and Coolio. Their manager framed the trip as work rather than vacation, shifting them from pop routines to street-style phrasing and footwork. Footage captured their first reactions to American freeways and studio sessions, moments that later felt distant once they headlined arenas worldwide.

Hope Delivery: Love Food Bank (2014)

The members visited a study room for underprivileged children and helped distribute food supplies across Seoul. J-Hope later expanded that impulse, donating 100 million won through ChildFund Korea to fund scholarships at his alma mater and support students facing financial barriers.

Yaman TV (2015)

The struggling-artist showcase invited BTS for two separate episodes. Even without subtitles, the clips of the members clowning with a selfie stick and staging impromptu skits remain easy to follow and endlessly rewatchable.

The Boss Is Watching (2016)

The Lunar New Year special placed idols in front of their managers for a series of competitive games. BTS members squared off in a sumo match while executives kept score, turning corporate hierarchy into lighthearted television.

Running Man (2017)

The 300th episode took the group out of the studio and into city streets for a scavenger hunt built around a 300-kilogram weight limit. After a dance-off, anyone tipping the scale had to walk back to base, a punishment that produced some of the episode’s most replayed moments.

Idol Party (2017)

The game show challenged idols to perform full routines while blindfolded and wearing cartoon masks. BTS recreated their choreography without sight, turning precision into slapstick for fans who already knew every count.

Knowing Brothers: Ask Us Anything (2017)

Filmed inside a mock classroom, the members answered questions in English, demonstrated dance breaks, and performed their 2017 single “Love” in school uniforms.

Burn the Stage, The Movie (2018)

The first concert film followed BTS through their initial major U.S. tour, documenting sold-out arenas and the exhaustion that came with nightly encores. It established the template for later releases that chronicled stadium runs and global milestones.

Bring the Soul (2019)

Shot during the final European dates of the Love Yourself tour, the documentary intercut stage footage with quiet hotel-room conversations about the pressure to embody the message “love yourself” while maintaining an unrelenting schedule.

Break the Silence (2020)

The seven-episode docuseries tracked the 351-day stretch from Love Yourself through the Speak Yourself stadium finale, capturing the shift from arena to open-air venues and the logistical scramble that accompanied it. A companion theatrical cut reached wider audiences later that year.

BTS Monuments: Beyond the Star (2023)

Released exclusively on Disney+ in December 2023, the retrospective series let each member recount early doubts, training-room rivalries, and the incremental decisions that scaled their reach from Seoul basements to global charts.

BTS: THE RETURN (2026)

Netflix premiered the Bao Nguyen-directed documentary on March 27, 2026, following the group’s post-military return and the studio sessions that produced the album ARIRANG. The film doubles as a companion piece to the comeback concert of the same name.

Run BTS! and Later Variety Appearances

The long-running YouTube series continued releasing episodes through 2026, mixing games, travel segments, and behind-the-scenes challenges. Individual members also popped up on Hot Ones and international variety formats, keeping the group’s variety footprint active well after their earliest television spots.

Across more than a decade, BTS moved from parody sketches and charity stops to stadium documentaries and streaming originals without losing the work ethic that defined their first appearances. Each new project layered fresh footage onto the same core story: seven people who treat preparation as seriously as performance and still find time to clown around for the camera.
