I really love this photobook. I think it is different. I think it is unique, and I have never seen a photoshoot like this in an album. I am a fan. I love the character photo card. I love the sticker sheet. I also love how they include a page of “specs” for the weapons that they have in the music video. As a gamer myself, I really appreciate this album and its video game qualities.

If you want to watch me fangirl, I do also post reactions on my YouTube Channel. I have posted one for Aespa Forever, which you can watch below:

Where Can I Buy It?

You can get a copy of this at the following places:

If you want to see where I get almost all of the products I buy, you can see that here.

What is Rakuten?

Rakuten is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Rakuten, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over $80 back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!

If you’ve never used Rakuten before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using Rakuten. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from.  Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Ulta typically has 3%. These are just some of the companies on the website, but there are other major retailers on there as well!

Rakuten also has a Google Chrome extension that will tell you as soon as you log onto a site that has cashback with a little pop-up in the corner so that you can ensure you are saving money!
