solo
fans and not fans have been waiting for a long time to see min finally release a solo album, and this track that puts a star to her solo career makes you realize how worth it was.
min, '98 line, is truly an amazing artist: the girl is not only bts' main rapper, but she is also the lead vocalist, producer and songwriter of the group, making her undoubtedly talented.

대구 (daegu)
the calming and tender melody of a classic guitar that accompanies to the gentle rap a breathtaking harmonization in the chorus: this is daegu.
in the track min talks about memories of her childhood, where her korean hometown plays as a familiar and comforting background.
she faces the relationship with her parents and brothers, her difficulties in school and her life as an underground rapper before finally being able to debut as an idol in bts.
"daegu" is min's story, and the intimate atmosphere she is able to create with her voice truly is what makes this song so special.

제비꽃 (violet) (feat. zico)
one of the most-awaited collaborations: when bighit announced the tracklist, armys went crazy knowing that zico and min would finally release a song together. the two are well-known to be close, and their friendship is one of the most envied in the kpop industry.
"violet" talks about love, and gives off a sense of tenderness and affection that only the two rappers could create.

자기 (myself) (prod. SUGA)
this track is the only one that features another bts member, and who could he be other than min yoongi himself?
the topic of this song consists in loving yourself, even in your insecurities, imperfections, scars and fears. min also remarks to ignore people that make fun of you, to leave behind people that use you, and that judge you before getting to know you. the song is a hymn of keep fighting for what you love and for what makes you love yourself. "what makes you cry today, will make you stronger tomorrow", such a nice message is delivered by our dear min.

aphrodite
the song, which gives the album its title, is produced by both min and mino. the song revolves around the figure of a mysteriously fascinating girl, aphrodite, that  makes all men and women fall in love with her thanks to her hypnotizing beauty.
the song, that has already reached the first place in the charts of many coutries (and the hearts of many fans), is accompanied by a stunning music video, in which min herself plays the role of aphrodite. the mv features many breathtaking individuals, such as actor park bogum and beloved dancer aiki, and has earned the love and support of many all around the world, making it quickly reach 100 million views in the first 24 hours of it being released on youtube.

마지막 (the last)
"the last" takes us to the end of our journey through min's album. this track is truly heartbreaking, and it is quite impossible not to get goosebumps when listening to it. the song only lasts a bit more than two minutes, and talks about min's struggle with depression and anxiety.
the girl's voice, which is accompanied by the notes of a piano, ranges from a whisper to a scream that seems like a cry for help, that takes you with her through her battle with mental illness. this song is truly a masterpiece.
