    I really like this album. It is an anthology album and the vibe it has perfect. Starting that album with Born Singer is perfect. Yet To Come is really good. Especially the lyrics. I really liked their promise to keep going. Let's walk together to forever BTS. Run BTS is such a bop. Everything about the dong is perfect. And For Youth is really special. Thank you for Proof BTS.

    This album perfectly embodies the definition of what an anthology album is. All the songs are great in their respective genres. It dives and reminds you the top tier discography BTS has. The new songs have their own stories to tell from the past, to the present, and as well as the future BTS. Proof is an example of a legendary anthology album an artist can have.

    Proof is a summary of a great career - so far. No matter when you discovered them, this will bring out a lot of emotions.

    A journey through the title tracks on Disc 1 shows how they evolved and tried new things. So many different genres but in every song is the heart of those "7 boys from Korea". And the last track "Yet to Come" on Disc 1 promises even greater things in the next years.    Proof is a summary of a great career - so far.

    And the last track "Yet to Come" on Disc 1 promises even greater things in the next years. With all the references and beautiful lyrics it really is a promise I believe.

    Disc 2 with their favourite solo and unit songs. Really interesting to see what songs Bangtan values the most on their journey! And with their second new track "Run BTS" they are delivering right on the promise they gave us just a song before with "Yet to Come": "Good music? Got them, Good Team? Goddamn!"

    And a must for every Army is defintily CD 3 with unreleased songs and demos! Also the new fan song "For Youth" is a really perfect end to this first chapter of Bangtans journey. And like "Yet to Come" a really promising look in the future.

The lead single "Yet To Come (the most beautiful moment) talk about the 9 years of journey BTS and their fans have made together, with lyrics like "you and I, the best moment is yet to come."

    This tells you their story and somehow shows you how they've evolved not only music-wise but also personality-wise. Listening to this album, I cried, laughed, danced, and remembered all the beautiful moments we've experienced with Bangtan so far. There isn't a better way to conclude an iconic chapter.

    Proof is truly a masterpiece. This album shows how beautiful their 9 years of journey is and how they are so consistent in terms of music. It conveys that, from their debut to till now they made bangers only. Everyone should give it a try!!

    What a wonderful album! A nostalgic and poignant celebration of the last 9 years, ready to close one chapter and enter a new one. Full of so much variety, it perfectly encapsulates why BTS are one of a kind and why they have achieved all that they have. Highly recommend for fans old and new!

    Love it, they always have amazing music.
    Mine favourite one was Run BTS. I like how this anthology album brought about showed all those amazing years of their hard work.
    It was very nice that they put those demo version, as we all know that very few artist make their own music.

    This anthology is the proof of BTS’ hard work over the last decade. Their genre agnosticism means that there is a song that everyone will love if they listen without prejudice.

    Listening to the track repetitively and there's still so much to unravel. It's why BTS are not the kind of artist that makes music that needs repetitive listening to finally find it appealing, there's too much control from their involvement therefore it's this impeccable.

    BTS's artistry keeps expanding and getting better with each passing year. Their lyrics are really incredible. As an anthology album that holds part of their journey it made me feel honored to be a fan of theirs. I can't wait for what's next in their musical journey. They're such talented artists, all 7 of them.

    Anthology album that consists of hits after hits. This album includes different genres that explains the artistry of BTS. Yet to come is my favorite. The lyrics is so good and it reflects BTS' past, present, and future. The new track For Youth is heartwearming as well especially to me as a fan who witnessed their growth as an artist. Run BTS is definitely an ass shaking track!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Am not an ARMY, own no merch/posters, and have seen zero concerts/music shows. Have only heard them on the radio coz they seem huge with PTD & Butter playing for like forever so decided to check out the new album to see the hype. For the casual & curious listener like me, this album gives a quick guide on what made BTS since its inception. Their discography is varied from rap/hip-hop to ballads to pops... but their use of music & honest lyrics to relate & connect to their fans/listeners is consistent. Their 3 new songs are reflective of that: 2 ballads & 1 hip-hop. In the title track Yet To Come they don't shy from reflecting on the stratosphere that they've found themselves in now & promise that they have more to offer. Run BTS is a catchy & upbeat tune - def will be a hit & at gyms soon, and the last track For Youth is a love letter of promise & thanks to their fans.
    It was smart to have an anthology album as it allows new listeners to have a better understanding (& listen) of what/where BTS is/was. Plus it makes it impossible not to dig further into their other old albums & find other songs worthy but didn't make the cut in this latest release e.g. Mama, Microkosmos, and Paldagongsan...
    At the end of the day, I don't think I qualify as ARMY but I do have better respect for what is BTS, plus more good tunes on my playlist.    … Expand

Not only this song is perfect for them but us, people can relate to it and can hope better future for themselves. Run BTS is fun song on a hip-hop beat with addition of rock vibes. While For Youth is a song dedicated to their fans saying that they want be with fans for a long time and wants to enjoy their journey together( basically a love song for their fans) while the songs shows their musical journey and growth. They have demos only available on physical album, show their creativity. This anthology album is perfect to end the first chapter of their career and to start a fresh new one.… Expand

    Proof serves as a nostalgia trip for long-time fans of the septet and a summary introduction for the curious. With thirty old songs, three completely new tracks, and eleven new versions of well-loved classics, this album marks a satisfying closure to their first nine years as a group.

    For fans who were sucked in during the time of “Dynamite” or “Butter” and haven’t dug into their back catalogue just yet, they might be surprised to discover just how broad of a range these songs can stretch. ... Disc 3 is a whole different kind of time capsule: there are 11 unreleased demos, two brand new tracks (“Quotation Mark” and “For Youth”), and one previously-shelved track (“Young Love”) that peel back the curtain on BTS as artists like never before.
