BTS have just released their third Japanese compilation album, BTS, THE BEST.

The album contains all of the global superstars' previous Japanese releases since 2017, including this April's 'Film Out'. It also features their 2020 smash hit 'Dynamite' as a bonus track. 

According to Big Hit Music, shipments have already surpassed 1.1 million units on the first day of release. Additionally, 2020's 'Stay Gold'—which also appears on BTS, THE BEST—has spent 52 consecutive weeks charting on Billboard Japan's Hot 100 as of the album's release date. 

Fans of BTS, also known as ARMY, shared their excitement for the album on Twitter:

BTS, THE BEST comes on the heels of the MUSTER SOWOOZOO concert that took place on 13 and 14 June. The event served as the grand finale for FESTA 2021, BTS' 8th anniversary celebrations.
