Background
Seventeen made their debut in Japan in May 2018 with "Call Call Call!". Since then, the group has consistently released music and performed at concert tours across the country every year, with the most recent being their two-night concerts held in Kyocera Dome and Tokyo Dome for the Love fan meeting event in May 2023.[1] On June 22, Seventeen announced the title of the forthcoming Japanese album via X (formerly Twitter), revealing that the album would be a compilation album slated for release in August.[2]
Promotion
Seventeen appeared on Japanese television to promote the album, including performances on Count Down TV[3] and NHK's NHK Music Expo 2023.[4] In December, Seventeen performed "Ima (Even if the World Ends Tomorrow)" at the annual FNS Music Festival.[5]
Seventeen collaborated with Club Dam, a karaoke company, to feature the songs of the album from September 10 to September 30.[6]
Following the release of the album in August, Seventeen embarked on the Japanese leg of their Follow Tour in September at Tokyo Dome, with more shows in November and December for a total of twelve performances in five cities.[7]
