    A befitting ode to a beautiful journey so far for one of the biggest musical acts in the world right now. Contains 6 new tracks and CD full of unreleased demo dedicated to their powerhouse fanbase Army. The members conclude what Leader RM called just the "Chapter 1" of their musical journey and it seems like the best is indeed "Yet To Come"

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Absolutely breathtaking. The vocals, the visuals, the obvious hardwork they poured in. Yet To Come was the perfect song for Proof--the melting of all the concepts of the past nine years into a song was definitely something hard to do, I believe, but the way they portrayed the years of running and all that they had to go through in order to reach where they are today was breathtaking. I, for one, loved the track RUN BTS the most. It wads like a a song for themselves in the past. Like them telling each other to keep running despite what happens in life. FOR YOUTH is a track that portrays the infinite love and respect between BTS and ARMY. The others tracks are awesome. I love the album a lot and it is obviously a big success. Shoutout to all those who poured their blood, sweat and tears into the making and to BTS, for running for nine years. Looking forward to our coming years together! … Expand

    This album covers their discography since their debut. A perfect Album for new ARMY s that just discovered them recently and also for old ARMYs to remind them the reason why we are still here with them after 9 years. Thus is a no skip album to be honest. Even the new 3 songs are so dope!!!!

    Great album. So much to unpack. No skips at all as every track is a gem. Listening to the whole album, BTS takes me back to the journey they started, takes me on a roller coaster ride as the tracks consist of songs you’ll bop your head to but at the same time can make you feel sad, emotional and hopeful too.

    This anthology takes you seamlessly through the back catalogue of BTS'S discography, and with 3 new songs, dedicated to their past, future and the fans that got them there, it leaves you wanting to listen again and rediscover the entire Bangtan Catalogue

    PROOF isn't just an abum. it's a cultural reset, it's the oxygen you breathe, it's a lifestyle, it's a reason to live, it's an escape from this cruel world, the first gift you open on christmas, a hug from a loved one, it's everything you ever wanted.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. BTS PROOF is a testament of their vast and mesmerizing discography. It emphasizes the fact that there is no skip in their discography.
    The album starts from Born Singer, which captures their essence beautifully even now, though this song was released right after their debut. The whole album takes you on this captivating journey from their rookie years to the legends they are now. The three new songs, Yet to come, RUN, Youth are gems which will have their own fan following.
    I suggest you to give Proof a listen and you will come out not just falling for these amazing lyrical genuises, their music but also the Korean language.
    Don't take my word for it, go for Proof and u wouldn't regret it!!!    … Expand

    Proof showed more than just a high level of musical genius and great lyricism. It also beautifully presented how BTS came to be, where they started and how they aim to continue in the future. The tracks are amazingly put together as well.

    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.
