    This album was so needed during the pandemic. It gave us comfort and reflexs really well how we felt during the worst moments we had with covid. Speciall mention to "Blue and Grey" and " Disease", Diasease is in my opinion one of the best BTS songs.

    This album is so important to BTS. Being able to write during lockdown and feeling uncertain of what was next really got to the members.

    Sou um pouco suspeita porque acho esse o terceiro melhor album deles, acho a sonoridade perfeita, o minimalismo pontual, a presença do Hoseok bem mais forte nas faixas, fora que ele foi todo pensado e produzido pelos membros então... Impecavel, perfeito, cheiroso. NINGUÈM RELA

    Muy buen álbum, life goes on fue su primera canción en coreano que logró el top 1 en billboard y obviamente se debe a lo buena forma en la que transmite melancolía y felicidad a la vez. Muy recomendable!

    An album of hope in times of pandemic, personal lyrics and a production worked on by the 7 members of BTS, perhaps not the most memorable but certainly a work of art.

    BE is the album in which BTS's sound crosses over to cement the type of legacy they're building – one that started in youth and is very proudly Korean, but that makes sense for any age or place.

    Frustration and grief animate these songs, but it’s their simplicity and specificity that make them compelling.

    Deciding to reflect on states of mind some of us could resonate to – especially this year – BE serves as a chronicle of what 2020 has been during lockdown: a year of uncertainty, anxiety, depression and frustration. But it also delivers hope for the future.
