As an anthology album, the journey you are taken on from the very beginning, starting with the song 'Born Singer', all the way to the end with one of their newly raised songs 'For Youth' feels like a very pleasant walk. You can hear the different sounds they've come to have over the years as artists. They are ever evolving their craft, and it is well reflected in this album. The title track 'Yet To Come' is an especially enjoyable song, as the artists themselves express they're plans of continuing their journey into a brand new chapter of their career. I'm sure I'm not the only one excited for their next step.… Expand

    This album contains the chronicles of BTS over the past 8 years and I am blown away by their discography. This album also shows on how they paved the way with their own blood, sweat and tears. Keep streaming!! and happy 9 years with Bangtan

    I first encountered BTS at the 2017 amas where they performed DNA, after seeing them and watching their performance i was mesmerized by their talent and beauty.

Now that they released this Anthology album, i got the unique opportunity to relive all of those years of their hard work and talent. Not only that, but the new songs are so beautiful and amazing. This album was created with so much love for army. BTS is truly one of a kind and they love us so much, I can’t wait for the second chapter and i am so grateful for the gift they gave us to relive the first one all over again. I will cherish this album for the rest of my life.… Expand

The album serves as an amazing opportunity for newer fans to relive the earlier days of the band which they didn't get the chance to be a part of, until now. With the added layer of new songs carefully positioned between the band's journey, their personal picks and capping the never released demos that are available only on the CD version and feel like a gift carefully wrapped and entrusted specifically to the fans, this album is truly yet another masterpiece, that lives up to its title as yet another proof of why BTS is the biggest group in the world.… Expand

    I found BTS and became an army during the pandemic with a help from my best friend who’s also an army. BTS really helped me to get through my depression and i’m very grateful for their music. And for this new album ‘Proof’, i love it so much! It showcased BTS journey from the very beginning till now. Their music contained many genre and i love each and every of ‘em.

    All of my fave BTS songs in one album and I am so happy! BTS have nothing to prove to anyone cos they are in a level of their own. I’m so proud of this album and especially to BTS for giving us their best in each comeback. This album is a masterpiece! What a beautiful gift to ARMYs!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album shows how wide their musical skills and knowledge are , putting 9 years In one album is a good way to look back. Their songs have different types of genres that no matter if the listener is old or young , love to dance or love classical even hip-hop and ballad , they cater everything. They started from the bottom and worked their way up and this album is the evidence of those struggles , those tears , those fears but also their growth , passion , laughter and their love and care for one another. This album is their story , it's their evidence and it's their PROOF. I'll treasure this album forever just like how I treasure BTS … Expand

    A combination of the group’s most impactful songs, whether it be on the charts or in their personal career, curated in a way that takes you on a journey through their discography. The album is beautiful and contains amazing new songs as well as older ones that really paint the picture of where BTS stands today in their career.

    This anthology brings me back to when I first found BTS. 2016 was a rough year and I found them when i needed them the most. I’ve seen some of their most iconic eras and now with this new album its all coming back to me.

For those that are new to the BTS train, all i have to say is “BUCKLE UP BC YOUR IN FOR A TREAT”. BANGTAN doesn’t disappoint, they take you on a ride of different genres and I love them for that. Never afraid to try new sounds. Enjoy every single song and look up lyrics… its just like reading a book.… Expand

    PROOF is one of the best albums to come out of this decade. It perfectly encases the elements of nostalgia and contemporary music showcasing their capability as artists. They displays their talent and range varying from soft ballads to heavy hip-hop and rock influenced songs. This is artistry at it's peek.

    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.
