What will “Proof” include?

BTS fans usually buy all the merchandising that the boyband launches, and this does not seem to be the exception. “Proof” will have two versions: the standard and the compact.

Each of the albums will include:

• Sleeve and outer box
• The art of Proof (132 pages)
• Images (104 pages)
• epilogue section
• Lyrics (44 pages)
• 3 CD’s
• Photocards of two types: in version A there will be 7 different models and 8 of version B.
• 1 postcard with a random image of the 8 available
• 1 poster

In the case of the compact edition, it will have practically the same content, with the difference that the number of pages and photos will be less.

If BTS fans want to purchase the compact version, they will have to pay $17.92; while the standard has a cost of 51 dollars. If ARMY wants to purchase both, the price is $68.93.

All the activities

BTS has revealed a schedule for activities around the premiere of “Proof,” which starts this week. Here all the details:

• May 9 to 11: track list of songs
• May 17 to 23: “Proof of inspiration”
• May 28 and 29: concept photo of “Proof”

It should be noted that all these dates are in South Korean time; so some of the dates could vary for Latin American countries.

More information

This June 13, BTS celebrates nine years in the music industry and would have prepared a surprise for all his ARMY. During their stay in Las Vegas for their “Permission to dance on stage” tour, Jin, Jimin, Jungkook, J-Hope, Suga, RM and V would have recorded a music video.

This theory is based on the fact that Lumpens, director of MVs such as “Butter” and “Dynamite”, traveled to Los Angeles; as well as the arrival of the director of photography Eum Sang Tae, who has been in charge of the promotional concepts of each artists’ comeback.

It is not yet known if this video clip will be for “Yet to come” or if it will be part of the surprise that Bangtan is preparing for its anniversary.
