Before the group debuted, their label YG Entertainment announced multiple single album releases before a studio album would release. The group debuted with The First Step: Chapter One on August 7 and its title-track "Boy". On September 1, YG uploaded the first teaser for the second single album on various social media profiles. Furthermore, YG called the title track "more intense" than "Boy".[4] One week later, the label shared the release date and pre-orders for two physical versions went live. The title-track "I Love You" was revealed on September 9 and the tracklist the following day.[5][6] The following days, the label uploaded individual member teasers.
The First Step: Chapter Two was released digitally in various locations on September 18, 2020, alongside the music video for the album's single "I Love You".
Composition
Melon described that The First Step: Chapter Two "presents a feeling of excitement with a visual that doubles the youth's intense passion and innocence as well as a refreshing feeling". "I Love You" is "a dance-pop song with a dynamic composition with unexpected reversal" and "features a brass line that explodes with the 808 base". Lyrically, the song "states about purely moving straight for the one you love".[7] "B.L.T (Bling Like This)" "metaphorically interpreted the desire to recover time and memories along the path created by the Milky Way and starlight illuminating the darkness".[2] In a live broadcast held by Treasure on September 18, 2020, regarding the song "B.L.T (Bling Like This)", member Mashiho stated, "I felt like I became a boy since it made me feel emotions when I was young", and added, "there were unexpected emotions and charms of love with its fiercer beats" in the lead single.[8]
According to YG, The First Step: Chapter Two surpassed 200,000 physical pre-orders, making Treasure a "Half a Million Seller".[9] The single album debuted atop the Gaon Album Chart on the 39th issued week of 2020.[3] It debuted at number four on the monthly album chart, selling around 219,000 copies in September.[10]
