As we continue our NCT Fest in preparation for Golden Age‘s release, today we are talking about NCT 127’s third mini-album Cherry Bomb. Keep reading to find out what comes with the album, my thoughts, and where you can pick up a copy.
Things to know about the NCT 127 Cherry Bomb the 3rd Mini-Album:
On June 14th, 2017, NCT 127 returned with their third mini-album Cherry Bomb. Charting the US, Korea, and Japan the album had over 100,000 pre-orders before the album was even released. By the time the album was released, it sold over 127,000 copies in Korea and another 8,000 in Japan. Featuring a single of the same name “Cherry Bomb” was deemed inappropriate to show on Music Bank by KBS, so the group performed 0 Mile instead. On M! Countdown, both songs were performed. The single was nominated for Best Pop Song at the Korean Music Awards and Best Dance Performance Male Group at MAMA. This album also marked the group’s very first comeback showcase.

So first things first, this is an amazing mini-album, from start to finish. On top of that, this album really begins NCT’s expansion into larger album packaging. Although Limitless marks their album with the highest number of stickers, this one begins the large photobook trend. I really like this album overall and you cannot go wrong with it.
If you want to watch me fangirl, I do also post reactions on my YouTube Channel. I have posted one for NCT 127 Superhuman, which you can watch below:
Where Can I Buy It?
You can get a copy of this at the following places:
- Music Plaza (I purchased mine here)
- Ebay (Can get Cashback with Rakuten)
- Amazon
- SubK Shop
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!
