    it bring past and present with a hint of what the band want to accomplish the future, has so many genre to explore through the entire album from old hip hop to new soft rock and ballads just perfect combination for who want to know BTS in one album and a proof of how much growth they did throughout the 10 years of their music career

    I was looking forward to it even before this album was released....

    It's an extraordinary album....because this album tells the story of BTS' journey, hard work before or during their debut until now....
    As always BTS's work is always the best of the best.
    You've worked hard

    This album encapsulates BTS' essence in it's true form as is evident from it's very first song Born Singer which has lyrics that are deep and meaningful to the group which just started out their musical journey. The new songs Yet To Come, Run BTS and For Youth all have the underlying message of showcasing the path BTS chose and the reason they do what they do. While changes are inevitableThis album encapsulates BTS' essence in it's true form as is evident from it's very first song Born Singer which has lyrics that are deep and meaningful to the group which just started out their musical journey. The new songs Yet To Come, Run BTS and For Youth all have the underlying message of showcasing the path BTS chose and the reason they do what they do. While changes are inevitable some things like BTS' love and passion for music remains same and their reason to continue on the path becomes all the more clearer. If you are interested in BTS and you want to start somewhere this is a great album to do so. There's also a CD3 that has little gifts in the form of demos, acapella and some prior unreleased songs they recorded in early years of their career.… Expand

    This ALBUM is the story of BTS and it's beautiful! Listeners can follow their journey, which starts with 7 kids meeting through their love of music and dance! Together they have become a global supergroup with THE most diverse fandom to exist! Their music & message is the glue!

    Listening to BTS PROOF in order and no skips. Album contains all of BTS' masterpieces. Even though there are only 3 new tracks, the older tracks still sound fresh and powerful. Testament to the performances, songwriting and production. AMAZINGGGGGG!

    o melhor álbum, com um significado incrível, simplesmente não tem como parar de escutar, yet to come a música perfeita para se fechar um ciclo lindo, for youth é apenas a declaração do amor e gratidão eles tem pelos armys, e run bts… o que falar dessa obra de arte a não ser que é icônica e uma das melhores música do bts já lançadas até agora.

    Amazing album!!! New songs are different: one is giving us hope and joy, one is feeling like declaration of love to us, and one is our new anthem for bangtan and army. I feel so happy and joyfull while listening this new songs and old ones. And I'm so exiting and waiting my Proof set with disc 3 to hear it!

    This is truly a special album. Not only is it a collection of their top tier past works but it also includes 3 new songs. All of the songs hold a special place in my heart for different reasons. I highly recommend checking this album out if you want to know how BTS became the artists they are today.

    O álbum do ano! Sério caso você nao conheca o grupo BTS após ouvir irá se apaixonar. A musica Run BTS é extremamente viciante, perfeita em tudo no arranjo nos vocais nos instrumentais e o que falar da rap line. Perfeito.

    This album was a great journey through what BTS is calling their “Chapter 1”. Longtime ARMY will enjoy the memories, newer ARMY will get a good summary of these past 9 years, and people who are just getting into BTS have a whole roadmap to catch them up in this journey. I love this album, love the new songs, and am eager to see what is still yet to come.

    BTS made this anthology album with their most iconic songs that are also very meaningful and personal to the artists and their fans. Although they've been active for less than a decade, they are record breaking artists in many levels. I recommend this album for those who want to listen to good and meaningful music.

    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.
