  • SKOOL LUV AFFAIR: An ode to dreams, happiness and love, with an emphasis on school and teen life.[3]
  • DARK & WILD: Acollection of tracks that explore the unique power of hip hop and demonstrate the musical direction BTS is taking,[3] and the meant is to be a direct continuation of the theme in their previous release.[5]
    • "Danger": Title track, and is about a man who has started dating but isn’t receiving equal attention from the girl he loves.[5]
    • "호르몬 전쟁 (War of Hormone)": Follow-up track, and is about the raging hormones a hot-blooded young man feels when he sees a girl who is perfect front and back, and top to bottom.[6]
