This became one of the springboards that launched them into global stardom as a global band.

It’s very important to me that I’m able to keep this promise – and, in fact, I think many people may have guessed it, but this is the first time that I am mentioning in public that there is going to be a 10-year anniversary project.”As Bang noted, ‘The Most Beautiful Moment In Life’ series is often considered BTS’ global breakthrough moment, leading them to become a stadium-headlining, record-breaking group.
