According to a press release on September 4, the movie is set to “explore the candid journey of BTS’ leader RM as he navigates the complexities of being a global superstar and the person Kim Nam-joon [RM’s given name].” The press release also noted that the film will “chronicle the eight months leading up to RM’s military enlistment”.
RM: Right People, Wrong Place will be primarily set in the locations where “RM intensely worked on his album”, taking viewers “on a journey through Seoul, Tokyo and London, offering an in-depth look at the creative process behind RM’s second solo album”.
