It's funny because all of the top groups are starting to get a lot more uniform and boring in album packaging. My guess is that production costs are rising. IVE fans are pissed that they're just getting photobooks in plastic and Aespa have stopped doing unique version covers (Dirty Work didn't have unique retailer covers and Whiplash's were painfully bad and hard to tell apart from the original cover). 
 

I'll be pissed if Rich Man doesn't get a plushie version.

These are nothing alike from a graphic design standpoint and they're also both nothing novel. I highly doubt ILLIT was their jumping off point.

don't think this is the case with IVE cause why are starship's flop groups get great and interesting packaging

Cause IVE just like SKZ will sell albums no matter what, so Starship and JYP probably don't wanna invest too much on album packagings

A perfect follow up to Chk Chk Boom

SKZ sell more than any other JYPE act with japanese albums, why would they even bother with the packaging 

 

 

sad but true 

 

In this Bang? Is he holding an diarrhea?

I'm obsessed with Ceremony's first teaser

I'm honestly surprised how NMXX are outselling ITZY and selling just as much as TWICE

KPOP packaging in general has been pretty lame. ENHYPEN & SEVENTEEN have cheap looking packaging.

 

SM acts have the best packaging. It's very noticeable at Target when you see all the K-albums lined up.

Nugu groups operate at a loss. So they aren't expected to recoup money until about 3-4 years into their career.

 

I'm sure JYP, Starship, SM, etc. are making cheaper physicals to save anywhere from $1-3 per purchase. And when you save that much for a group selling 1M+ albums, it really adds up.

Bold to call them "creative."

The fact that the full song will be out in 13 days and the first teaser still has 9 days……

They sell a lot 

I wonder when they will have an actual tour. I think they've only had fanmeetings so far

 

my XngHan & Xoul album came in a plastic baggie

 

They decided they were taking IT and made sure everyone KNEW

 

I'm so tired of the white and blue album packaging for boy groups. 

I might be reaching but....streets are saying that they filmed the videos for each member's tour solos based on the 10th anniversary teaser? @Green Tea Is Green @swifthino Does that mean we might be getting full versions of those songs?

 

 

 

but i kinda love how the members like Nayeon, Jihyo and Tzuyu and also MISAMO didnt do their own solos/units songs on tour to give everyone an equal footing, and also how every member's tour solo fits them perfectly 

 

 

 

 

Jihyo with the swaggy hiphop style and beat

Chaeyoung with her own quirky PinkPantheress beat and arrangement

Jeongyeon with a focus on actual pure musicality and vocals and storytelling with a country song

Sana being the sexy siren

Momo the dancing machine with an ass shaking bop

Dahyun with the musical composer tag and piano playing

Nayeon with the self-focused upbeat song talking about her being one of a kind (truth)

Mina with a moodier/ethereal bop with a contemporary dance performance alluding to her ballerina past

Tzuyu being Tzuyu and doing whatever on a generic beat while killing the choreo
