The album contains seven tracks including Closer Than This, a fan song that was released December last year.

Closer Than This was released to convey Jimin’s ‘love and affection’ for his fans and to bring them ‘hope and warmth’, according to Big Hit.

J-Hope is the next member set to be discharged in October followed by the rest of the members in June next year.
