The album’s success is even more significant considering that member Sungkook was absent from this release due to his mandatory military service, which began in May 2024. Despite his absence, VANNER delivered a standout project that resonated with fans around the world.
BURN brings together six tracks: Revolver, Automatic (the title track), New Heights, Blossom, Xcellerate, and Be Together. The physical release came in four distinct versions: Spark Start, Sparkle, Empty, and PLVE, catering to fans eager to collect each edition.
Additionally, BURN also brought VANNER their first-ever music show win on Music Bank with lead track Automatic. Recently, on October 17, KLAP Entertainment, the label managing the group confirmed that member Hyesung is all set to enlist for his mandatory military service on November 4, following the elder Sungkook.
