The said clip includes BTS, Stevie Wonder, Mariah Carey, Katy Perry, Naomi Campbell, and much more. Dream Still Lives is a campaign to honor the life of the late Martin Luther King Jr., whose life was cut short on April 4, 1968. Fifty years later, his dream still lives; thus, this movement wants it to continue by spreading the word and hope.

BTS' new album also takes the number one spot on the Japanese music statistics site Oricon. In fact, it revealed that Face Yourself has sold about 188,085 units upon its release, Soompi reported.

Additionally, the album features 12 songs. It is a mix of BTS' new and old tracks. The old songs like "DNA" and "Mic Drop" are translated into Japanese, while the new tracks are "Don't Leave Me" and "Let Go." These melodies are said to be hitting individual song charts in 35 countries. One particular song on the album, "Don't Leave Me," will be used as the official soundtrack of the hit tvN's Japanese remake drama, Signal.
