This compilation album is a harmonious amalgamation of 27 captivating tracks, including a brand-new composition titled "Ima – Even If The World Ends Tomorrow."

The excitement doesn't end there, as Seventeen is gearing up for an unprecedented milestone in their illustrious career. Starting from September 6, the group will embark on a monumental dome tour, encompassing five cities across Japan. With an impressive lineup of 12 exhilarating concerts, this tour promises to be a dazzling spectacle, showcasing Seventeen's undeniable stage presence and musical virtuosity.

Seventeen's meteoric rise to global stardom is a testament to their unwavering dedication, artistic excellence, and fervent fanbase. As they continue to break barriers and redefine the boundaries of musical achievement, Seventeen's impact on the K-pop landscape remains an awe-inspiring phenomenon. The attainment of the "million" certification for the second time this year solidifies their position as a transcendent force in the ever-evolving world of music.
