Description (Translated): *** Top Articles *** BTS graced the cover of a global special issue launched simultaneously in 16 countries worldwide by the American magazine *Rolling Stone*. The Japanese edition, *Rolling Stone Japan vol.35*, features the cover story and individual member interviews in full translation, and is composed of a special BTS issue that includes Japanese concert reports and album reviews. This coverage was handled by Brian Hiatt, a senior writer who wrote the BTS cover story for *Rolling Stone* in the U.S. in 2021. He covered BTS in Seoul this February, listening to their journey leading up to the all-new album *ARIRANG*, their first in about six years, and conducted individual interviews with each of the seven members along with a group interview. In the interview, the members candidly discussed the difficulties of reuniting as a group after completing their military service and the intricacies of the process of creating new music together, while also deeply exploring their attitude toward challenging new sounds as a group. The contributions and conflicts of each member are also revealed, such as RM urging the group to take on new challenges and J-HOPE realizing the group's strength once again through his solo activities. This special feature can be considered the definitive edition capturing the present state of BTS as they continue their unrivaled journey, and the Japanese edition includes the full translation of both the group and individual interviews from the US edition. It is also a BTS special issue that includes a report on the Tokyo Dome concert held for the first time in about seven years as a complete seven-member group, along with a full album review article. It is a volume that captures the present state of BTS, who returned as a complete group this year. Description (Original): *** 주요기사 ***미국 『Rolling Stone』 매거진이 전 세계 16개국에서 동시 전개하는 글로벌 특집의 표지를 장식한 BTS. 일본판 『Rolling Stone Japan vol.35』는 해당 커버 스토리와 멤버 개별 인터뷰를 완전 번역으로 수록했으며, 일본 공연 리포트와 앨범 리뷰를 더한 BTS 특집호로 구성됐다.이번 취재는 2021년 미국 『Rolling Stone』 BTS 커버 스토리를 집필한 시니어 라이터 브라이언 하이엇(Brian Hiatt)이 담당했다. 그는 올해 2월 서울에서 BTS를 취재하며 약 6년 만의 전곡 신곡 앨범 『ARIRANG』에 이르기까지의 여정을 들었고, 그룹 인터뷰와 함께 7명 각 멤버에 대한 개별 인터뷰도 진행했다.인터뷰에서는 병역을 마치고 그룹으로 다시 모이기까지의 어려움과 새로운 음악을 함께 만들어가는 과정의 섬세함에 대해 멤버들이 솔직하게 이야기했으며, 그룹으로서 새로운 사운드에 도전하는 자세도 깊이 있게 다뤘다. RM이 그룹에 새로운 도전을 촉구한 점, J-HOPE가 솔로 활동을 통해 다시금 그룹의 힘을 실감한 점 등 각 멤버의 기여와 갈등도 드러난다. 이번 특집은 독보적인 행보를 이어가는 BTS의 현재를 담아낸 결정판이라 할 수 있으며, 일본판에는 US판의 그룹 인터뷰와 개별 인터뷰 전편이 완전 번역으로 수록된다.또한 7인 완전체로 약 7년 만에 열린 도쿄돔 일본 공연 리포트와 앨범 완전 리뷰 기사도 함께 수록된 BTS 스페셜호다. 올해 완전체로 복귀한 BTS의 현재를 담아낸 한 권이다.
