LOS ANGELES (AP) - BTS will reveal their gradual journey to becoming K-pop superstars through a new Apple Music weekly limited series.

The Grammy Award-nominated band will take listeners on their quest to stardom while sharing stories and songs that helped shaped them. The group is known for hit songs such as 'œDynamite'ť and 'œButter.'ť

'œWe wanted to use this radio show to celebrate nine years of BTS with you guys and with our ARMY all over the world,'ť said RM of the seven-member boy band - which also includes J-Hope, Suga, Jungkook, V, Jin and Jimin.

'œEvery episode is dedicated to you,'ť RM continues. 'œAnd we wanted to share the BTS songs that help tell our story.'ť

In the first episode, BTS explains the beginning of the group with songs that inspired their sound and style. The second episode - which airs June 3 - has the band pick some of the BTS ARMY's favorite songs.
