Now Project is the first compilation album by the South Korean boy group Monsta X. It was digitally released by Starship Entertainment on May 14, 2025 for Vol.1 and on September 26, 2026 for Vol.2.

Name

The title "Now" means "present" and also a word that is a reversed version of "Mon", which makes up the group's name. It symbolizes the identity and point in time that make up the current Monsta X.

Background

Vol.1

It contains ten re-recorded tracks from different albums released from 2021 to 2023, including the voice of Shownu, who was not able to participate in those albums due to military service, in commemoration of the group's 10th debut anniversary. The selected tracks also consisted of ones that the group members wrote, composed, and produced.

Vol.2

It contains eight re-recorded title tracks from different albums released from debut to 2019, in commemoration of their fan club's anniversary. This connects Monsta X's beginnings and growth journey with the members current voices.

Composition

Vol.1

The tracks range from energetic in the disco funk genre to emotional songs with warm melodies and impressive piano melodies, diverse songs that are reinterpreted in a new way, and the familiar yet deeper sound and expressiveness that only Monsta X can provide.
