With songs that “reflect the thoughts and ideas of the members on the past, present and future of BTS,” the new album comprises a total of three CDs. Along with “Yet To Come,” the anthology album includes two other brand-new songs “Run BTS,” and “For Youth”. “Yet To Come” is a medium tempo song of the alternative hip-hop genre, reflecting on the group’s musical journey while also promising a brighter future
Starting off CD2, “Run BTS” features the group’s free-spirited yet extraordinary vigour from their debut days. An up-tempo hip-hop song, “Run BTS” lives through BTS’ evolution, revealing their feeling of running more vigorously towards the future without being satisfied with the present.

In the weeks leading up to the release, BTS dropped multiple concept photos for the anthology album, in versions titled ‘Proof’ and ‘Door’. The group also gave an insight into the tracks they individually chose for inclusion in the track list through videos titled “Proof of Inspiration.”
