Even though BTS already released “Butter” on May 21, the “Butter” CD is receiving its own comeback treatment. BTS announced the CD in a fictionalized broadcast posted on Twitter on June 14. Big Hit Music then revealed the first details about the CD in a post on Weverse.

In the Weverse post, Big Hit Music described the CD, writing:

“In celebration of ARMY’s birthday, BTS’s ‘Butter’ CD single will be released on Friday, July 9, available for pre-order from Tuesday, June 15. 

In addition to the digital single ‘Butter’ that was saturated by an outpouring of love from fans everywhere, the CD will include a new track that will make your heart beat to the rhythm of BTS’s positive energy. We look forward to the love and support from all fans.”

Leading up to the CD’s arrival, Big Hit Music has shared multiple sets of concept photos of Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook on social media. On July 1, Big Hit Music revealed the CD’s tracklist. The “Butter” CD will include four tracks: “Butter,” “Permission to Dance,” “Butter (Instrumental),” and “Permission to Dance (Instrumental).”
