I really love this album’s packaging. It is set up as a book inside of a book, and the color palette chosen is lovely. It’s incredibly artistic and I love the chess theme. On top of all of this, his fashion is incredible throughout the album. I’m a huge fan.
If you want to watch me fangirl, I do also post reactions over on my YouTube Channel. I have posted one for Taemin 2 Kids, which you can watch below:
So should you get yourself a copy of this album? Absolutely. Taemin consistently produces amazing work and anything that you could purchase of his is amazing. Should you stream it? I understand that buying albums is expensive, so I definitely think that if you cannot afford this, or want to buy another SHINee album instead of this one, go for it.
Where Can I Buy It?
I picked up my copy of this album Music Plaza LA. You can get a copy here for $21.99, plus shipping. Additionally, if you have never used Music Plaza before, this link will get you an extra 5% off of your first purchase! 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 24 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.
