SEVENTEEN to Celebrate First Decade With 4-Part Disney+ Doc Series ‘SEVENTEEN: Our Chapter’

It’s hard to believe that it’s been a decade since K-pop boy band SEVENTEEN came together. But on Nov. 7, Carats will have a reason to celebrate the boy band’s aluminium anniversary with a new four-part Disney+ doc series called SEVENTEEN: Our Chapter.

Produced by their label, Pledis Entertainment, the docuseries will track the first 10 years of the group’s journey, featuring interviews, performance videos and behind-the-scenes footage of their training and life on the road. According to a release announcing the project, the series will drop a new episode every Friday, following S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, The8, Mingyu, DK, Seungkwan, Vernon and Dino from their beginnings to the 2024-2025 [RIGHT HERE] world tour that played to more than one million fans, this year’s SVT 9th fan meeting “SEVENTEEN in CARAT LAND,” and the studio sessions for their their fifth album, May’s HAPPY BURSTDAY.

A one-minute teaser trailer that dropped on Wednesday (Oct. 15) counts up the years from the group’s 2015 formation over a montage of footage from their concerts as the members ask probing questions about the ceiling on their global fame. “How far can we go?,” “for how long can we do this?,” “how honest should we be?” they ask.

The trailer dropped a month after two of the band’s members, Woozi and Hoshi, enlisted in the South Korean army to begin their mandatory military service. As with K-pop superstars BTS, SEVENTEEN have said that its individual members will release solo material throughout the two-year military stints, though four members are exempt, S.COUPS because of a knee injury, The8 and Jun because they are Chinese citizens and Joshua because he’s a U.S. citizen.

“This is something that has been inevitable for us all along,” Hoshi told The Hollywood Reporter in May of enlisting. “We have been prepared. We have a lot of projects that we have discussed with [Hybe] very thoroughly up until now.” 

SEVENTEEN are currently on their NEW_ world tour, with upcoming shows in Los Angeles on Thursday (Oct. 16) and Friday (Oct. 17), followed by gigs in Austin, Texas, Sunrise, Fla. and Washington, D.C. before wrapping up with 10 shows in Japan.
