I think for this album being a debut single, High Up Entertainment went over the top with the packaging. They included lots of extras, and also a little something special. I have never heard of a group having a “signature fragrance” included with their albums, but I think it is really creative that they decided to do it. It adds an extra layer to the experience of the album.
If you want to watch me fangirl, I do also post reactions over on my YouTube Channel. I have posted one for Key from Shinee called “I Wanna Be” who stared in The Guardians, which featured Seeun, which you can watch below:
So should you get yourself a copy of this album? I think this should be a lower priority album to buy, as there are only 2 tracks on the album. That being said, both of the songs are fantastic. So, if you don’t buy it, you should stream it.
Where Can I Buy It?
I picked up my copy of this album off of Mercari, a seller marketplace. If you are looking for potentially more “rare” or harder-to-find albums, you may find them on here. I have found many good deals on albums I was looking for here. This link will give you 10$ off your first order, and $20 off when you make your first 100$ selling on Mercari. If you are looking for other albums, you can check Music Plaza. If you have never used Music Plaza before, this link will get you an extra 5% off of your first purchase! Finally You can also order a copy of the album from eBay, as they typically have good prices. This link will help you with your search. Plus, with eBay, you can save a little bit of money by using the Rakuten extension on your browser, as it will save you 2% on all album purchases, which definitely adds up.
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!
Can I get it on Amazon?
Yes! You can pick up a copy using this link for about 25 dollars, with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime. If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can get a 30-day free trial using this link here. I will not lie, the free 2-day shipping, plus all of the free music and videos are totally worth it. I also now use it for books for my Kindle Paper White too, and it is honestly a lifesaver. They have a program called Kindle Unlimited where you can check out 10 books at a time, read them, and put them back in the Kindle library. The program costs $7.99 a month, and you get the first 30 days for free with this link.
