If I had bought this album before the end of 2017, then this album would have made an appearance on my Top 10 albums of 2017. Seventeen never fail to release amazing albums. I have the RS version which is the version that contains their concept photo's. I love the whole layout of the album, I really like that they separated the lyrics from the photo book as it meant we got a full book of pictures of the members. Each track on the album is different from the last, with each song giving off that Seventeen vibe, I love that Seventeen always give us unit tracks as well as each unit collaborating together, one of my favourite tracks on the album is 날 쏘고 가라 (Bring It) which is a track by Woozi and Hoshi, another one of my favourite tracks is Rocket which is by Vernon and Joshua. They really allow members that wouldn't normally get to shine, have their time in the spotlight which is one of the reasons why I love Rocket, it was nice being able to listen to Joshua singing throughout a whole song. I've had this album on repeat many times because it's such an amazing album, even though the album is 38 minutes long I honestly feel it isn't long enough and that while listening to the album, the time seems to go by so fast, so I end up putting it back on to enjoy it again. I think a good album makes you want to put it back on and listen to it again and always leave you wanting more.
