The book is going to be a special gift for fans this year. It was originally expected to be announced on June 13 (BTS’ debut date). It has also been confirmed that “Beyond the Story: 10-Year Record of BTS” will be released on July 9, which is the day the group officially announced their fandom.
Basically, BTS will publish the memoir on ARMY’s birthday. It’s a fitting present for all fans, whether they have been with the group since their debut or have recently joined the fandom.
People initially believed that the mystery book is about Taylor Swift. The “I Knew You Were Trouble” singer’s fans pre-ordered the title in droves, causing it to become a bestseller on the Amazon and Barnes & Noble websites earlier this week.
“Beyond the Story: 10-Year Record of BTS” will be 544 pages and include exclusive photographs. The book will feature never-before-seen images of RM, Jin, Suga, J-Hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook. According to Flatiron Books, the highly-anticipated memoir will have “global appeal” and “massive publicity.”
