!!Please!! do not throw away unsealed albums at the garbage dump in front of Subway. Please don't just dump the photobooks after taking the merchandise and photo cards... If you do this, people will see Carats as something other than good people. Also, do not unseal your albums and throw away the plastic in the street!





To the person who only took the photocards and left behind 31 copies of albums in Hollys Coffee, please bring these with you. It's not like you pay rent here. What did Hollys Coffee do wrong to deserve this? It would've been better if you gave away these albums in front of M2U Records. Please acknowledge that this behavior is rude and bring these albums with you. 




Some people left 20 copies of albums in front of M2U Records... It's raining, so I moved it. If you threw these away, it means you're rude. But if you didn't mean to throw these away, I will send it back to you! Just contact me!

[+357][-22]

1. [+283][-0] What's the use of increasing album sales by doing that?... I think they should count each person's purchase as one... They still can buy more than one copy if they want to, though

2. [+163][-4] I know what I say will be controversial but... This fandom is not the only one that's throwing away albums, all fandoms doㅋㅋㅋ It's... Problematic, right?? What I personally think ridiculous is the fact that if this was posted elsewhere and they are told to take it down, they eventually do. But here, even if they are told to take it down, it's considered a problem, so they keep uploading itㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+117][-8] The rules needs to be changed. There should be a version that has no photocards or tickets to fan signs and fan calls. People who buy the album should also be registered in the database, so that when they buy different versions from another stores, it won't be counted on the charts. Also, only albums purchased in Korea should be counted on the Korean chart. Many albums are left in overseas warehouses and are counted as sold albums on the Korean charts.

4. [+114][-1] The person from the first picture already apologized... Why is she the only one apologizing?ㅋㅋㅋ The people who threw away the albums are the ones who should be apologizing;;

5. [+88][-5] Affordable albums with 18 versions, 899 photo cards, and fansign and fan call lottery tickets for 3 countries. And many of those albums were eventually thrown away in the trash, on the street, or in overseas warehouses.

-This will only cause the idols to receive hate, though...

-I heard there's a service that helps to clean up those discarded albums by burning them. People who left those albums on the street probably don't want to spend even more money on thatㅋㅋㅋ

-18 versions?? I guess that's the reason why their sales are really high...

-Those are the albums of your favorite group, you should've treated it more carefully. There should be measures to address this issue, not only for the environmental reasons but also for the value of the album itself.

-Are the sales that important? What's the point of buying the albums if you're just going to throw it away like that?

-This is exactly why idols should just sell photo cards...

-Shouldn't there be legal measures to prevent this? It seems like this could be a problem for the environment.

-This is all because of the 'photo cards' culture. I just hope companies would stop putting random photo cards and put exactly the same ones in every copies instead. 

-How could you just throw away the albums of your favorite group like that...?

-I'm sorry, earthㅠㅠ

Seventeen's fans are throwing away thousands of albums

I'm a Jonghyun fan.
I'm worried that some people might have skipped meals, so I've left some chocolates.
I've prepared plenty, so please feel free to take a piece or two.
(Please move it to a safer place if it's exposed to sunlight. Thank you)

It makes me cry because they know how fans feel right now.
SHINee Jonghyun's fans are so warm-heartedㅠㅠ

theqoo

-This sight is both breaking and warming my heart at the same time. I hope both Jonghyun and Moonbin are happy wherever they're at right now. I know no words can comfort them right now, but I really hope they gain some strength...

-Bin, have you arrived safely? I hope you're holding hands and traveling to many beautiful places with our Jjong now, who I'm sure has found his happiness. We'll be sad for awhile, but then we'll cherish the memories you left behind and remember you here. I hope you're full of happiness there. 

-Both Jonghyun and Moonbin were loved by such warm-hearted people. So I'm sure they must've slept comfortably and happily.

-Why are good people gone too soon?

-Please don't make me cryㅠㅠㅠ

-I wish happiness to Jonghyun, Bin-ie, and all of us they left behind...

-I don't know what to say... I'm afraid I'll only say the wrong things. I just hope that all of his fans can overcome this.

-Jonghyun-ah, Bin-ah, I love you so much. I miss you. I hope there is no more pain where you are. I pray that you live on with a smile. I hope their fans gain strength.

-Jonghyun and Moonbin made me realize that the world is too cold for warm-hearted people to live in...

-I think it was a really good decision for the company to create a memorial site. Fans now have a space to remember him and comfort each other.

EC: There's something I can relate. I recently watched your High School Entrance Ceremony Vlog. You didn't want your hair to be done in pigtails.

LS: That's right. I'm shy to do that hairstyle by myself. You know right?

EC: I know, right. But Maknaes tend to have that image. You did that hairstyle yesterday, though.

LS: I did

LZ: Well, that's because she suits pigtails really well. Maknaes look really cute with pigtails. 

LS: You know that the Unnies don't do that hairstyle, right? 

EC: I know, right. They just straighten their hair, that's all. I can totally relate. I guess all Maknaes are alike.

theqoo

-Who told you to look that cute!!

-I can totally relate to Lizㅋㅋㅋ What does she expect us to do when she looks really cute with pigtails?

-Yeah... Because you can only do that hairstyle at your current age nowㅋㅋㅋ

-ㅋㅋㅋThat's because you look pretty with pigtails. There will come a day when you want to do pigtails but can't because of your age...

-Let me tell you... You can only do that hairstyle because you're still young. Enjoy it while it lasts.

-Then you shouldn't look good with pigtails, Leeseo-ya!!!

-Liz is so funnyㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Once you're a Maknae, you will forever be a Maknae. You will still be doing that hairstyle even in 10 years from nowㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I understand that kids at that age want to look mature...ㅋㅋㅋ But you'll catch yourself wanting to do that hairstyle once you're older...

-You can't do that hairstyle once you're olderㅠㅠ So, do it while you're still cute...

-You have to enjoy wearing pigtails when you're still in your 10sㅋㅋㅋㅋ Once you're older, you won't be able to do that hairstyle even if you want to...

+) Bonus: Taemin's 'Sorry for Being Too Cute' Challenge 

theqoo 

-This is f*cking crazy. I want to see Taemin's dancing to Hype Boy in person too.

-Taemin-ah, I think you really will be adorable for the rest of your life...

-I feel like I'm going crazy... It's too cute to handleㅋㅋㅋ

-Thank you, Lee Taemin... Thank you...

-He dances really well despite not knowing the dance that well. He's even better than me who has seen the dance more than 100 times.

-He was born cuteㅋㅋㅋI can't help but smile widely until my gums dry up even when he does nothing...

-How old are you once again?

-I can't believe he's already 31 years old...

-Whoa... I didn't know Taemin was already discharged from the military. He hasn't changed at all, not even a little bitㅋㅋㅋ

-Taemin, thank you for lifting my cheeks up...

-Lee Taemin is the definition of Hype Boy!!! So cute...

-My cheeks hurt from too much smilingㅠㅠㅠ Why are you so cute!!!

I think the terms used in idol comebacks these days are too difficult to understand

Back then, they only use the terms 'teaser', 'digital music', or 'M/V'. 
But these days there are 'concept photos', 'album sampler', 'track video 1, 2, 3'... 
It seems like they keep using new English terms...

-Back then, it was called 'Highlight Melody'. Now it changed to 'Sampler'

-I agree, sometimes I wonder if they really have to come back in such a complicated way

-Actually, the terms become so uncertain. Not to mention that their promotion periods are short, which make comebacks so monotousㅜㅜ

-It looks like a teaser for another teaser. Just give us the whole thing already.

-I agree. It's just like how Frappucinos are called with different names in different cafés.

-I agree. Sometimes, I think they're having a comeback when it's actually just a pre-release track. It's confusingㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What even is a sampler...

-Seriously, though... That's why I'm tired of itㅜㅜ

This is true. 
It seems like new words keep popping up even though the meaning is the same.

theqoo

-I love Seventeen because they don't drag things and just release the whole thing

-They release teasers for a whole month long only to promote the song for 2 weeks

-Highlight Melody and Sampler are two different thingsㅋㅋㅋ

-I agree... I didn't even know what 'concept photo' means at firstㅋㅋㅋ I just recently learned what it means after it's being commonly used

-I don't really mind as long as they show the idols' faces in the teasers. I really hate it when they only put graphics in their teasers.

-What is a sampler? My idols usually only release highlight melody, teaser #1, and teaser #2...

-If they take too long to release the teasers, they can lose its impact by the time of the actual comeback. Sure, it's exciting at first, but it can also become tiring... The teaser can sometimes end up being longer than the actual promotion.

-My favorite group hasn't had any comebacks in over a year... I'm just jealous by the fact that you guys even get a comeback...

-I'm satisfied with the way my favorite group promotes their comeback...

-They release teasers for a whole month, promote the song for 1 week, and hold fansigns for 3 weeks...

-I hate it when idols release teasers longer than the actual promotion...
