Ordering My Golden Child AURA Albums from Kpoptown, Ktown4u, and Makestar

After almost a year of waiting and endless hints and reassurance from Golcha (with Jangjun's ment in Philly and again a spoiler on the Weekly Idol live), on July 27th, 2022 at 6PM KST Woollim finally released a comeback teaser along with new hashtags, a new Golden Child logo, and a comeback date of August 8th! Then on July 28th at 3:10PM KST Woollim posted album details, and soon after showcase details.

I was going to stop blogging about ordering albums, but of course I always have issues that I feel warrant a dedicated blog post >.<

For Golden Child's 6th mini album AURA, there is a limited version and a normal version. The normal version is the only one applicable for lottery events (showcase, fansign, video call, etc.). My plan was to buy a few copies of the limited version on Ktown4u, where I know I'll be guaranteed the preorder benefit posters, and then order the normal version through a video call event for that site's preorder benefit photocard. But I foolishly talked myself into ordering 4 copies of the limited version from Kpoptown, along with Bomin's Woollim Mall ID (because I am still not over my Bominitis). Just 30 minutes later I remembered that the Bomin ID is the same image as the random Bomin ticket from the Cinema Kit that I have >.< I had placed my order on August 1st KST and Kpoptown had a special where first press posters were free if folded, so I was happy at least that was guaranteed (as for the first press mini poster set...we'll see). Then on August 9th KST I received an email from Kpoptown stating that the ID was sold out and asked if I wanted my order shipped and refunded for the Id and remaining shipping fee where the refund will come shortly after shipment, or fully refunded. I chose to keep my order, which they acknowledged, and shipped out my order on August 10th yet I still haven't heard back on the refund despite messaging them via email and through their site. As an update: I received my refund and an email confirmation from Kpoptown on August 16th, a few hours after my package arrived.

And then with the announcement of Jaehyun and Bomin being on the next issue of First Look, of course I had to preorder it! So on August 7th KST, I ordered 2 limited versions of AURA along with a copy of the magazine from Ktown4u, but unfortunately by then all preorder benefits had run out.

As for the normal edition, I decided to preorder 9 copies from Makestar's first event (to anyone curious, I had wanted to apply for Bomin but figured my slim chance was slightly better if I chose Jaehyun).

All 3 of my packages were picked up by DHL on August 12th and delivered on August 16th. From left to right are Kpoptown, Ktown4u, and Makestar.

My Kpoptown package arrived with 4 copies of the limited version and 4 folded posters, and luckily 4 sets of the mini posters (though of course no Bomin ID). My Ktown4u arrived with 2 copies of the limited version. My Makestar arrived with the full set of preorder benefit photocards, 9 copies of the normal version, and 9 folded posters distributed almost evenly among the 2 versions; unfortunately it didn't come with any of the mini poster sets despite being included in the product detail image on the project page (and if you look at Makestar 2, both the mini poster set and posters are not included in the product detail image, so I don't know if Makestar just didn't remove the mini poster set from the image or forgot to send them out). Please go to the bottom of my post for an update!

Makestar has really improved their process! They put each pob photocard in its own sleeve, and then together into a clear resealable bag. They were also super generous in giving an entire set of all 9 members when purchasing 9 albums. It seems like they're aware many people would purchase 9 albums, so they bundled 9 albums together and then had the pob photocard set taped on top.

Here is the order my Makestar pob photocards came in.

Makestar is getting more creative with their pob photocards, this time being double-sided hand heart versions. Here is the front side.

And here is the backside, which are finger hearts.

The normal version comes with 1 random photocard out of 18 (2 per member). My normal version albums all had consecutive serial numbers except for the first (far left) one, so I wasn't sure how the randomization of my photocard pulls would be. Luckily it was pretty good, with only 2 duplicates of Bomin! And I was able to pull almost every member; it's like I could pretend that there was only 1 photocard per member and say my set is almost complete sans Y and Jaehyun...

Here is a closeup of my normal version photocards. I was so excited pulling Bomin's 3 times hehe~

The limited version comes with 1 random bookmark out of 9, and 1 random photocard out of 36 (4 per member). As for my limited version albums, 2 albums had consecutive serial numbers while the rest were quite different. I'm really pleasantly surprised that out of the 6 bookmarks I pulled, I only had 1 duplicate! I pulled Y, Seungmin, Donghyun x2, Joochan, and Bomin. As for the photocards, I pulled 3 of the same Donghyun >.<

I'll have an unboxing post on the AURA albums coming up, along with some magazine unboxings and more posts on the rest of Golden Child's US tour^^

Update: On August 22nd KST, I received a shipping notification from DHL that a Makestar package was on its way. My friend had contacted Makestar inquiring about the mini poster set, however that path fell short as Makestar wanted my friend to provide photo or video proof. I actually did have an unboxing video (a process I religiously follow ever since Summer Breeze with Eline...) but didn't want to use my limited luck on this, so I never contacted Makestar.

On August 23rd PT, I received my package! 

It was indeed Makestar sending out the preorder benefit mini poster set. They had made this mistake with Lee Sujeong's posters as well; it's really nice that both times Makestar still used DHL.

There was lots of room inside the box, but all mini poster sets arrived in perfect condition.

I still have lots of posts in my drafts, but excited to get them all published!

Ordering My Golden Child Ddara Albums via Ktown4u and Makestar

It's been quite the year for Golden Child in terms of music releases with the group releasing their second repackage album Ddara on October 5th, 2021. On September 23rd just after 3PM KST,Woollim dropped the album details: 2 normal versions (Woollim became more generous this time with offering 2 random photocards out of 50 amongst both versions; there is also 1 random film photo out of 10 amongst both versions). Preorders also opened at 3PM.

Oddly enough I've felt so burnt out with collecting for each era this year (I'm about 50% complete for both YES. and Game Changer normal album inclusions with no hopes of finishing them) that I didn't feel motivated to buy multiple copies this era (which I never thought was possible...). But after some debate, my friend and I decided to order multiple copies from 2 sites and split the pulls for better randomization.

The album is quite large so shipping is higher, so my friends and I didn't want to go crazy on ordering too many albums. I preordered 2 sets (4 albums total) from Ktown4u, which came with 4 folded first press external posters (2 versions) and 4 sets of the first press mini poster sets (2 posters within 1 set) with DHL shipping for about $123 USD. My friend preordered 2 sets (4 albums total) from Makestar, which came with the same first press benefits as Ktown4u plus 1 Makestar exclusive holographic photocard per album, with DHL shipping for about $103 USD. Even though Makestar is substantially cheaper, we figured that we'd get our Ktown albums faster and have better, more randomized pulls than from Makestar.

I had another order from Ktown (the Singles magazine, Eunbi albums, and Etude House cream) which I had preordered prior to the magazine's September 24th release date but still hadn't shipped for weeks. I was getting weary of Ktown, and then on October 11th at 12PM KST, Makestar announced a Ddara 1:1 video call event with an October 14th KST order deadline. I decided to cancel my Ktown Ddara order (which I think prompted for them to finally ship out my previous Ktown order!) and look into Makestar instead. For this second Makestar event, there are no more first press benefits and again there is 1 random Makestar exclusive photocard per album out of 10 (different from the previous event). This time you have to order by the number of albums you'd like (with the versions being random), instead of having the option of buying by sets of 2. I decided to order 5 albums, and with DHL shipping the total was under $123 USD. Like usual, there was a PR event as well. The video call and PR event winner announcement would be posted on October 15th after 3PM KST.

I continued to check the event page and the announcement showed up at about 3:30PM KST. I was shocked to see that I had actually won the PR event! I'm at #8^^ There are 10 randomly selected winners for the PR event, and the prize is 1 random member's signed Polaroid out of 10 taken during the Makestar video call event from October 16th. The Polaroid will be sent along with my order. I also received an email at 3:32PM KST in both Korean and English confirming that I had won the PR event and that the Polaroid would be sent with my album(s) purchased.

The post here on out won't be heavy on details or photos as I wasn't originally planning about blogging about my Ddara album orders.

The Makestar 1 event page stated that they would start shipping on October 8th. My friend's package arrived on October 18th. Unfortunately the cardboard box took quite a beating, with a large hole on the side. Fortunately, everything was inside. Here are our pulls from Makestar 1:

• Makestar 1 exclusive holographic photocards: Daeyeol, Y, Donghyun, and Joochan (daeyoon and dongchan^^)
• Film photos: Daeyeol, Y, Jaehyun, and Donghyun
• Album photocards: 1 Y, 1 Jaehyun, 1 Jibeom, 1 Joochan, and 3 different Bomin

For the album photocards, unfortunately 1 album was missing 1 photocard so we only received 7 instead of 8 photocards. Despite missing 1 photocard, overall the pulls were satisfying since there were no duplicates amongst the 4 albums.

The Makestar 2 event page didn't state when they would start shipping (I think they might only do that for preorders), but my package shipped on October 29th and arrived on November 1st. It actually arrived along with my Woohyun With 1 event order; Woohyun's is on the left and Golden Child's is on the right. Luckily everything looked intact.

I think the Makestar boxes have really upgraded this time (or this is the first time I'm noticing it) but now there is one corner that is held together by thick staples. This applies to both my Woohyun package (top left) and Golden Child package (bottom right).

And now onto the unboxing of my Makestar 2 package! I recorded my unboxing in case my order was incorrect, which I do recommend doing for any package as mistakes do happen. Opening up my package reveals the albums stacked together and wrapped in a layer of bubblewrap, and lying on a bed of air pockets. There was still quite a lot of room in the box but regardless the albums arrived safely.

Flipping the stack of albums over revealed the Polaroid and Makestar 2 exclusive photocards!

Here is everything! The Makestar 2 exclusive photocards each came in their own penny sleeve, then inside another larger clear plastic bag that was taped onto the bubblewrap. The Polaroid also came in a penny sleeve with a sticker label with my order number, name, and winner number that was then taped onto the bubblewrap. The Polaroid definitely could've slipped out as the penny sleeve wasn't sealed shut, but regardless it is here and arrived safely! AND I CAN'T BELIEVE I GOT JIBEOM! I would genuinely be happy with any member, but I'm really extremely grateful for having Jibeom who has been my phone screen background since April 2020 and who has given me so much happiness these past few years^^

I already had this frame but nothing fitting to be framed, until now^^ It still feels so surreal to me!

Here are our pulls from Makestar 2: 

• Albums: 1 Version A and 4 Version B
• Makestar 2 exclusive photocards: Seungmin, Jaehyun, Jibeom, Donghyun, and Bomin (The order was actually Donghyun, then Jibeom, then Bomin, then Jaehyun, and then Seungmin. I couldn't express how excited I was to receive my top 3 consecutively!)
• Film photos: 2 Daeyeols, 2 Ys, and 1 Jaehyun
• Album Photocards: 1 Daeyeol, 3 Tag (1 dup), 1 Jaehyun (same as from Makestar 1), 1 Donghyun, and 4 Joochans (2 dups)

My Makestar pulls have always been bad in terms of pulling duplicates, but this is some luck to have duplicates within my package AND with my friend's Makestar 1 package. But in the end with some trades, it'll all work out^^

Coming up I'll have an unboxing post about both versions of the Ddara albums^^

Ordering My Golden Child Game Changer Albums via Ktown4u and Makestar

Golden Child has come back with their second full album on August 2nd, 2021! On July 20th at 3PM KST, Woollim dropped the album details: a limited version (which thankfully has no randoms!) and 3 normal versions (2 photocards out of 100 amongst all 3 versions; 1 postcard out of 10 per version). Preorders also opened at the same time. I ordered one copy of the limited version from Ktown4u within an hour (there were technical difficulties on Ktown's end). By the end of the 20th, the limited version was already sold out from Ktown but later was back in stock (and again out of stock) on the 21st.

My Ktown4u package shipped on August 3rd and arrived on August 5th. The album and preorder benefits (random poster out of 3 and accordion postcard) came wrapped in several layers of bubblewrap, followed by a strip of air fillers, then placed inside a sturdy cardboard box.

Here is the limited album at the bottom, followed by the folded poster, and lastly the accordion postcard at the top. To my surprise, the accordion postcard came in 2 resealable plastic bags.

While generally everything arrived in pristine condition, on the back cover there is a long horizontal black smear towards the bottom. This was underneath the shrinkwrap, so it's probably a manufacturing defeat that I'll just have to live with.

As for the normal albums, I was holding off until online retailers with videocall events and preorder benefits posted. Makestar opened up their event on July 27th while My Music Taste didn't open up an event during preorder period at all.

As always, I made my table of prices in USD for shipping to the US, with a breakdown of how many albums. Makestar has a Set 1, which is 1 normal album of your choice, and Set 2, which includes all 3 normal albums. After a lot of contemplation, I decided to order 4 of the Set 2s from Makestar. If you think about it, each inclusion becomes under $5 (1 Makestar photocard, 2 album photocards, and 1 postcard) which isn't bad at all especially for those who are trying to collect.

The Makestar event closed on August 1st and the event page states that orders will be delivered sequentially from August 5th. The event page did update on August 5th to show the status "reward shipping start". On August 9th, I received a shipping notification from DHL for my Makestar package.

My Makestar package arrived on August 10th in a sturdy cardboard box. The albums had a secure layer of bubblewrap and there was a layer of air fillers covering half of the box.

Removing the air fillers, we see the folded posters at the bottom, accordion postcards just above, and then the stack of albums wrapped in bubblewrap on top.

Here is a closer look at the preorder benefits, each in their own resealable plastic bag.

Here are all of the contents of my package: 12 folded exterior posters (3 of Version C, 3 of Version B, 3 of Version A), 12 accordion postcards, 12 Makestar A holographic photocards (which were placed on top of the stack of CDs inside the bubblewrap), and 12 albums (3 of Version C, 3 of Version A, 3 of Version B).

The Makestar photocards came in sets of 3 photocards per packet, meaning that there is no guarantee to receive all 10 different photocards despite buying at least 10 albums as it appears random. These are the 4 packets I received.

These are my pulls from each of the 4 packs. Out of 12 photocards, I received 2 Daeyeols, 1 Y, 1 Jangjun, 2 Tags, 3 Seungmins, 1 Jaehyun, 1 Jibeom, and 1 Donghyun. I'm missing Joochan and Bomin.

Each album comes with 1 transparent postcard out of 10 per version, along with 2 photocards out of 100 across all 3 versions. My Makestar pulls have never been good, and this is no exception with having the same pulls for all 4 copies of my Version A. I was really hoping not to have duplicates for the postcards since those seem harder to trade due to its size...

Here is a closeup of the postcards I pulled. Lots of Jangjun!

And here are the photocards I pulled. Out of my 24 photocards, 12 are duplicates...

Overall, I always cave into Makestar when it comes to preordering Golden Child albums, and then subsequently getting myself into dealing with so many duplicates. But it has also brought me into the wonderful world of trading~ I'll be blogging about all versions of Game Changer in an upcoming post!

Makestar Lovelyz Special AR Photobook Project Review

It's been a long drought for Lovelyz and Lovelinus since "Obliviate" era back in September 2020, therefore making Woollim's collaboration with Makestar to release another photobook project with Lovelyz even more exciting and much needed. Makestar first announced this "Special AR Photobook Project" on April 16th at 6PM KST on Twitter, along with the link to the project page which contains the various packages and item prices.

Introduction

The physical reward is the special AR photobook, worth $38.60 USD before shipping, and you can choose to enter the physical OT8 fansign event (30 winners) or individual member video call. The product page also indicated that the first 300 purchasers will receive a folded Early Bird Event Poster (it is unclear if it is 1 poster per photobook, per order, or per account). It said that pre-orders begin in "about 20 hrs" but I refreshed the page at about 11:30PM KST on the 16th, and pre-orders had already opened with 248 StarMakers already having participated. I quickly placed my order (DHL shipping was $30.43 USD to the US) and was the 255th StarMaker, hopefully falling within whatever constitutes as the first 300 purchasers.

As always, Makestar held their PR event where posting about the project on your SNS and commenting on the project page will enter you into a raffle for 1 of 8 signed Polaroids. And like with Lovelyz' previous photobook project, with this project there were 4 additional autographed Polaroid events for those who participated within a certain time frame. These can be found within the Updates tab of the project. 

The event was originally supposed to close on May 17th. However on May 11th, Makestar posted a "Project Extension Notice" on the Notice tab that the deadline would be extended to June 7th and that more photoshoots of the members will be released. The Story tab was also updated with the fansign event and 1:1 video call events to be held on June 27th. 100% funding of the project was also achieved, with all participants being rewarded a 100% Achievement Poster which is different from the Early Bird Event Poster. A 150% stretch goal was also announced with the reward being a limited edition postcard set.

By May 27th, the 150% stretch goal was achieved, and a 200% stretch goal was announced with the reward being a limited edition mini poster set (A4 size). I checked on the day of the deadline, and there was a 230% stretch goal that was added and achieved, with the reward being 2 different photocard sets.

Delivery

On July 5th, I received an email from Makestar that the digital reward delivery is now accessible. I checked my Makestar account, and 2 identical copies of the TALK-PIC User's Guide manuals were available for download, along with my tracking number. The tracking showed that the label was created on July 2nd. On July 5th, the project page status stated "Reward Shipping Start". I checked my account again on July 8th and my StarMaker Certificate was ready for download.

My package arrived on July 7th PT! My package came in a waterproof plastic bag envelope with no bubblewrap lining. All my previous Makestar packages (projects and pre-orders) were always in a cardboard box, so this surprised me.

But opening up the flimsy pink envelope revealed a heavy duty, sealed bubblewrap envelope! This is the same internal packaging that Makestar used for Lovelyz' first photobook project, and I'm happy to see that Makestar is continuing with this high quality packaging. All the contents of the project are inside this bubblewrap envelope.

Opening up the flap reveals the contents of the project stacked neatly inside.

From top to bottom are the pack of stretch goal rewards placed in a clear resealable bag, followed by the early bird poster in its own clear resealable bag, and lastly the photobook in a clear shrinkwrap.

Early Bird and Stretch Goal Rewards

The early bird poster is folded and has a high quality, matte finish. The dimensions of this poster once unfolded are 23.375" by 16.".

Here are all of the stretch goal rewards.

The stretch goal poster has the same high quality and dimensions as the early bird poster. Unfortunately this image is slightly blurry compared to the early bird image.

Here is a general look at the A4 mini poster set, postcard set, and both photocard sets. These are all very high quality. The poster and postcard sets are cardstock and have a matte finish. The photocards have a glossy finish. The photocards are so fresh that they were still stuck together. All these items were in age order from Baby Soul to Yein.

The backsides of most of these goods have a similar design matching the photobook cover.

Here is a closeup of the A4 posters! I love how fun and cute this concept is!

Here is a closeup of the postcards. The dimensions are roughly 3.9375" by 0.875".

And lastly here are the 2 photocard sets. I really like how the stretch goal rewards are photos from a variety of photoshoots, showing various concepts of the girls. The photobook contains 4 photoshoots, and 3 of the photoshoots are included in these early bird and stretch goal rewards.

Photobook

The photobook is titled "Blooming Lovelyz". The cover of the photobook seems like a new design arts student put together, with the random background, photo plopped on top, and hard-to-read text. I am clearly not a fan of the design.

However the quality of the photobook itself is very nice. It is hardcover and very sturdy and quite large and thick overall, with dimensions 8.875" by 12.125" by 1.1875".

One flaw I found was how "MAKESTAR" was misprinted on the spine, which is a bit funny since I'd think they'd want to advertise their company on their product.

Here is the back cover, again continuing the colorful design.

The photobook is broken up into 4 sections, listed on the front cover and on this first page: Sunshine Lovelyz, Sugary Smile, Mono Drama, and Neon Dreams. Each section contains its own photoshoot.

Sunshine Lovelyz

Each section starts with a 2-page spread like the above, and the top left has an icon and states "Pages with this mark have an AR function". This first section is entitled "Sunshine Lovelyz".

There is a group photo starting off this section. The outfits for this photoshoot give off a lovely spring garden party vibe.

Next is another group photo covering 2 pages.

The remaining pages of this section are dedicated to the individual member photos, where each member has 8 pages grouped together and is in age order from Baby Soul to Yein. The first 2 pages of each member's subsection looks like this, where the second page has that AR icon.

And here is the AR clip for Jiae! The app is quite straightforward to use. First, download "Talk-PIC". Once you've opened the app, you can click on the globe icon in the top left to choose your language (English, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese). The app will remember your selection. Next, line up the AR image within the box and the clip should play. Above here you can see how quickly the app identified the image and began playing the clip. This section's set of AR clips are generally 7 to 10 seconds long each, use different Lovelyz' instrumental tracks as background music, and show the girls making hearts.

There is generally 1 photo per page, and the layouts are different to keep things interesting. Though of course the best would be if the photos were as large as possible^^ All of the individual photos from this shoot are taking indoors.

Jisoo fits this concept so well! She has this natural radiance to her, and when she smiles subtly like that, it's really beautiful.

Generally the photos are super high quality, but there are a few (like the one of the right) that's lower quality.

Kei looks so elegant and in her own element here! This pure, streamlined look fits her so well.

I like how there are more traditional portrait photos, as well as candid photos mixed in this photobook.

I love how this shoot really captures the natural beauty of the girls! And the composition of that photo on the right with the archway is so beautiful.

That photo on the left is so beautifully taken! I love the symmetry of the windows along with Sujeong's pose, as well as her pointed shoes matching the window frame, creating nice composition.

Yein fits this victorian style so well! I really love her photos in this section.

While all previous members had 1 photo per page, Yein's is different where she has this 2-page spread.

And the following page contains an extra photo, so that overall she still has 7 individual photos like all the other members.

Sugary Smile

The second section is entitled "Sugary Smile".

This section is broken up into 2 subgroups, with the first including Baby Soul, Mijoo, Jin, and Yein.

It includes 3 photos of this subgroup with various props that will be used throughout this shoot.

Next are the individual member sections, again in age order, for these 4 members. Like the previous section, there are 8 pages per member including this above title page, and the second page contains the AR photo.

The photoshoot from this section is really cute! It's the girls playing with the toy props or munching on snacks.

There is also a retro feel to these photos, with the lawn chair and muted colors.

There is generally 1 photo per page, though there is the occasional 2-page spread or 2 photos on 1 page.

All of Jin's photos are so cute!

I love these set of photos, again how some are candid and others have her gazing at the camera.

Yein's really has the retro feel with that game console and her overalls!

And adding in the colorful slinky really adds to that old school vibe.

Next is an OT8 group photo.

Followed by 3 group photos from the second subgroup, consisting of Jiae, Jisoo, Kei, and Sujeong.

I don't know what it is about shopping carts, but they're always so fun to play around with^^

Jiae playing with Jenga blocks is also very nostalgic! 

The AR clips in this section are about 10 seconds long each, and they show each member cutely playing with their props. I can't get over Jisoo's!

Jisoo's set is definitely my favorite within this section! Her smile is so infectious and she her playful attitude is so adorable.

It's refreshing seeing Kei in a more boyish outfit!

Sujeong is so adorable here^^

Mono Drama

The third section is entitled "Mono Drama" and has a darker, more serious aura.

The section opens with a group photo.

Next are the individual member photos, this time in random order. There are 6 pages per member including this above title page, and the second page contains the AR photo.

This section consists of both black & white and color photos. Each member has 6 individual photos, including 1 page with 2 photos.

There's a bit of an eerie vibe with the flower covering the eye.

I absolutely love Jin's photos here! She gives off such an elegant yet subdued feel here.

I am in love with Sujeong's look here!

The AR clips in this section are about 12 to 14 seconds long each, and show each member posing more dramatically.

I can't get over this look on Yein; it suits her so well!

The formatting of these 2 pages is really pretty.

I love just how different each section is, giving off different images of the girls!

Kei looks absolutely gorgeous; I can't get over her photos here. Honestly, after going through all the photos in this section, the entire maknae line's set of photos are my favorite! I really like the slightly boyish outfits, and the subdued tone is such a contrast from Lovelyz' album concepts.

The last 2 pages are additional group photos from the shoot.

Neon Dreams

The fourth and final section of the photobook is entitled "Neon Dreams".

This section is a bit different, where the members are split into pairs and there are no group photos. Each pair includes the title page plus AR photo page for the first member, followed by 6 additional pages for that member, then 3 photos of the pair spanning 4 pages, then the title page plus AR photo page for the second member, and lastly the 6 pages of the second member.

There is generally 1 photo per page for the individual member photos.

Here is generally how the 2-page spread pair photo looks like. They're generally very up close and at first I thought they were 2 individual member photos.

Here are Baby Soul and Jisoo's additional pair photos.

Jisoo looks so gorgeous here!

The AR clips in this section are about 8 to 9 seconds in length each, and are fun and vibrant, as well as a bit dramatic starting off as black and white and transitioning into color, along with the slow motion.

This photos is so beautiful, and I love the shadow that's created in this photoshoot to add more drama.

If a member has a 2-page spread, they'll also have 1 page with 2 photos.

Here are some of Jiae and Mijoo's pair photos.

Jiae's pink outfit contrasts beautifully with the starking green tone.

I absolutely love that photo on the right! Jin's pose and aura fit so well with this concept.

Here are some of Jin and Sujeong's pair photos.

Sujeong's hairstyle is really pretty! And her playing with her ponytail gives it a nice, sporty vibe.

This 2-page spread is so gorgeous!

The makeup is really pretty, especially with the jewels.

Most of the other 2-page spread pair photos were super up close and looked like individual member photos, so I'm really happy that this one was a bit different!

Again, they're mixing up the layout to keep things interesting.

The last page contains the photobook credits. The first album listed all of the StarMakers names, however this time this was omitted.

Overall, I'm really happy that Lovelyz successfully completed their second photobook project, and the final result is absolutely beautiful! While the cover design is a bit elementary, the inside content is great: the concepts are diverse, the photos, pages, and material are high quality, and the AR clips are nice bonuses. I'm definitely looking forward to Lovelyz' next adventure after this!
