The documentary will soon premiere at the 29th Busan Film Festival and has been selected for the “Open Cinema” session. It will show how RM created his hit solo album ‘Right Place Wrong Person’, which was also called one of the best albums of 2024.
According to the official statement by BigHit Music, the documentary will showcase RM's raw and vulnerable side while creating his solo album. The statement read, "Right People, Wrong Place is a documentary that captures the making of RM’s second solo album,and his journey to search for his true self. RM's true self emerges only when such boundaries begin to dissolve, a journey authentically captured in RM: Right People, Wrong Place.”
The album has 11 songs including 'Nuts', 'Out of Love', 'Doodachi', 'Groin', 'Heaven', 'Lost', and 'Come Back To Me', among others.
On the work front, RM made his solo debut in 2022 with the album 'Indigo'. He recently teamed up with the American rapper Megan Thee Stallion for the song 'Neva Play'. The rapper will return from the military in 2025 and reunite with the other BTS members in the same year.
