BTS’s LOVE YOURSELF package design expresses the thrill of starting love, pain of facing false love, and understanding that loving yourself is the start of true love and compared it to the process of a blooming and withering flower.

Only revealed through a music video, LOVE YOURSELF: Wonder, showed the the bud of a flower just before blooming, while LOVE YOURSELF: Her showed flowers in full bloom, LOVE YOURSELF: Tear with flower petals falling, and LOVE YOURSELF: Answer revealing the remaining flower petals. The heart represents our ego and self-esteem.

All three albums released four different versions of the album for a total of twelve different album designs. If you spread out all the albums covers, CDs, and photo cards, it creates a whole image.
