Seventeen's Best Of album dropped this week!

It includes 4 new songs ("Maestro" which is the titl track and then each unit in the group got a song).

I am 100% obsessed with the Performance Unit's song, "Spell".

ooh, thanks for sharing this! i have a couple seventeen songs on a playlist but i've never delved into their discography, so a best of is perfect.

The first disc is the 4 new songs + Korean recordings of their Japanese singles (some of which hadn't been previously released before). The second disc is their big hits. It's a solid collection of songs and you can see how they evolved over the years.

The only downside is that the unit songs aren't on the 'best of' disc which I get. lol. There is only so much room on a disc and they're a group in their 9th year, but it's a shame because there are some great unit songs that Seventeen has released.

i'm def going to check it out this weekend!

If any songs grab you, def check out a performance or two because Seventeen's choreos are always super impressive.

Have you bought the album?

Idk if I'm gonna buy the Hear or Here vers.

And I'm gonna buy one of the Dear versions and cross my fingers that I pull one of my bias line.

I pre-ordered a random photobook version - I've got Carat versions of the last three albums and have yet to get a Hoshi version haha (Woozi, Joshua and Seungkwan)

[fauxkaren]

The fact that Carat versions are cheaper and sold at Target is bad news for me. I have 2 from FML and 3 from Seventeeth Heaven because lmao the urge to impulse buy when I'm feeling down is too strong sometimes.

Hoshi is my bias too but I have yet to pull him.

For FML I have The8 and DK. For Seventeeth Heaven I have Vernon, DK and SCoups.

So here's hoping this album is the time Hoshi decides to come home to me.
