This mini album which is just over 20 minutes long was a very easy and enjoyable listen.
The music is rich and the production quality excellent. When we talk about "real music" this is as real as it can get. The richness of sounds from the piano and the guitar blend together perfectly and mix well with Eddy's silky RnB vocal style. Musically, it reminds me of the American artist Maxwell.
The photo book is visually copacetic and reflects more on the autumnal and distant feelings in the lyrics rather than the bright and intimate mood created by the music.
Lyrically Eddy Kim is quite honest and blunt, in all the songs seeming to express a kind of admiration from a distance rather than really getting to know she who may have inspired the song.
His words speak of a non-committal passive sort of play at love rather than love itself, which perhaps is just an earmark of our generation.
Perhaps this is not a fair representation of all his songs and in others feelings better approached and explored. The music and the vocals are so absolutely gorgeous together and seem to call out for intimacy. However for me what hurt this album was that there was no sense of longing or desire or the joy of being with someone in any of the words, which is what left me feeling a bit cold by the end of the album. The words of "Miles Apart" itself are so apathetic and indifferent, I feel sorry for this hypothetical girl I've never met (he even refers to their relationship as a "nonsense love", ouch).
I still gave 5 stars because musically it is beautiful.

This is a fun album, especially track 4 is a BOP!! Play it to get going in the morning. Nice photos & extras. Wish them success! Another in a long line of great purchases from Music Plaza!

It’s perfect and looks better in real life! Shipping was fast too. Can’t wait to use this when I see nct in May!!

Monsta X's photoshoot for this magazine is stunning... all of them look unreal! I really only bought this because of them but once I looked through it I found out Baro was also included in this issue! Amazing!

I love my RJ Griptok! It's been a perfect replacement for my past case's popsocket. The area of the face is a lot bigger than a popsocket, meaning it's easier to hold up. I don't have any problems with it closing as it's propping my phone up. My phone is an iPhone SE which is one of the smaller models, but the Griptok's large size still works with it! Its closed width is a lot thicker than a popsocket, almost half a centimeter, but this doesn't bother me. All in all a 10/10 purchase! RJ gets compliments wherever I go! <3

It took a couple of days to actually ship. However, when I asked what the reason was, they promptly responded and were very helpful. Once it did ship, it came really fast! I got this album along with another a couple of days earlier than what it said! On top of that, everything came in perfect condition and I even got a couple of extra photocards for each group that I ordered an album of. I will definitely be buying from this store from now on for all of my K-Pop merch.

The poster came first, shipped perfectly with no dents or folds whatsoever, then the album came soon after. It came with preorder items, which I was really satisfied with! The album itself was absolutely untouched and beautiful overall. Such a fantastic aesthetic and visuals provided by two absolute idol kings. Definitely ordering more later!

First time pre-ordering from Music Plaza and it won't be my last. Everything was fast shipping and came before estimated time. Posters came the very next day. Music Plaza made my experience worth while and included me every step of the way.

INCREDIBLE ALBUM AS ALWAYS!! TRULY AMAZING SONGS!!!!! MISS KIM LIP I LOVE YOU!!!!!! shout out to MP for having all the loona albums (^': love that, love that

besides the songs on this album being absolutely amazing! the visuals of the album itself.....godly!! MP thank you for always having affordable prices and always having albums/merch on stock (^:

Just like with everything I’ve bought in the past, it arrives in great condition. Protected very well in the box. Love ordering from this shop because I know my items will arrive safely.

I ordered Jaehyun's set. I bought this for my photocard collection. The little photo is really nice it feels like an actual passport size photo and the film is also really nice. Music Plaza did an amazing job packing my item. They never disappoint with their amazing service! I regret not buying the other members sooner hopefully there will be more available in the future.

It came a couple days later than expected (because of a blizzard in my state, which isn't Music Plaza's fault-), but when it did came it was snug in the box and surrounded by bubble wrap to keep it safe! Was perfectly safe in the box and works exactly like shown! I definitely recommend buying your ahgabong here!!

Pre-Ordered the album and it arrived quickly and in perfect condition! MP is a great seller to work with! love this Black Dress follow up and can't wait for more!

They’re a rookie group so of course I had to support them because they have wonderful personalities. In the future they’ll be even better.

I love this album. This is my favorite BTS album and it is perfect. The tracklist is amazing and the photobook is beautiful. 10/10 recommend

It came really quickly and was in perfect condition. They even checked it before sending it that it works (they put a note in it) I always buy light sticks from here and never has a problem with anything. The color are amazing and overall it’s just a beautiful light stick

Love everything about this. The concept is fun, and makes me feel ... like I've got a whole new wardrobe. Ravi's my personal tailor 💖 TY for the fast delivery and best service .

I love Got7 and JB is my bias. This cd did not disappoint. It is beautiful! The photobooks are breathtaking. The posters are beautiful and the music is fantastic. Exactly what I expect from my boys 💚

It arrived so fast and in great condition, I’m so happy cause I finally could get my blackpink lighstick. I swear this is the best page, always great communication and fast shipping. I can’t believe this lighstick was available cause in othe sites is sold out. I’ll stay buying with Music Plaza from now on. ❤️

I was really excited to support Yong's solo album, the tracks are ALL amazing and the photobook is so aesthetically pleasing. Definitely worth the buy!! And as always shipping was fast and secure with tracking :))

It's a little weird to review a limited edition album, but here goes. I don't usually mention Music Plaza in product reviews, but special thanks for getting these orders to me despite the well known production and shortage issues. Anyway, this repackage pretty much makes XX a full length album with a strong collection of additional tracks to the original ++. The title track Butterfly is definitely a hit. The other new tracks are no joke either. I'd recommend this album as a strong pick for people looking for a sound that I'd describe as "modern" without strong EDM or trap influences (aside from Butterfly of course) or the bubblegum sound of other kpop offerings. The physical album is well done with good picture quality and materials. The chromatic version with the butterfly imagery is especially cool but both version concepts are well done.

The negatives: only one photocard for people who like to get many; font in the photobook can be somewhat small and hard to read. The posters are the smaller kind and the photo resolution isn't that great but I guess that's to be expected. Also, the arrangement in the photobook doesn't make each member feel personal. Yes, there are individual shots but they don't have their names on next to them so it doesn't feel like they're "featured". There's short messages from each member at the end but that's about it.

Anyway, even if you can't get these limited editions the regular versions are probably worth picking up even if you're not a LOONA fan (yet).

Highly recommend if you are an album collector or if you just want to buy it. A mini poster is included which is nice and the photo book is amazing. Don't forget the tracklist! Because this album is a repackage, you get songs from past albums and new songs as well.

This came to be super quickly! Faster than I could imagine. The album was in perfect condition, no damage or anything! Poster looks beautiful. These guys are amazing and I'm so happy to receive my lovely album. Had all the photocards, fan cafe card, stickers,etc.

The package came quickly and I was expecting there to be many delays, but alas there was not and it came right on schedule. The only thing I was unaware of was that the posters came separately. I was very happy with the album and all the preorder benefits I got from it. The album is simply adorable and BigHit has a very interesting way of packaging this album that is nice. I thought this album was a great purchase and I recommend anyone to get it if you enjoyed the digital download!

first of all the SONGS are AMAZING. the songs are so sensual and smooth i really love this sub-unit so much. the photocards are pretty and the transparent photocard along with the postcard set are very nice bonuses-- jype albums never disappoint when it comes to quantity and quality. i love the dark aesthetics of the physical album itself. jb and yugyeom are really just an incredible duo. my albums came so quickly i was very happy :)

With the entire production fiasco XX had went through I am amazed and astonished that I was able to receive my limited edition albums at all. Music Plaza really pulled through and honored my pre-order of both limited versions of the XX album and sent it to me as soon as they could. They wrapped it securely with lots of bubble wrap and a perfectly fitting box so it didn't move at all during transport. Both of my posters arrived seperately in a tube so they came a little after my albums did but still in great condition.

This experience has made me so relieved and elated that I shopped with Music Plaza instead of any other company. My expectations were not only met but definitely exceeded and I will definitely be shopping here more often.

I got this album a while back, nonetheless I’m gonna review it. I live in the Midwest USA unfortunately so I have to order online all the time. MP ships my stuff in perfect condition all the time. 👍🏻 This album is poppin. JIsung and Jaemin, Haechan are my biases, but i don’t count Haechan cuz he’s more 127 to me.

Once again, Monsta X has blown me away with this album. The way each piece is memorable yet meshes well together is something so uniquely Monsta X, it blows me away every time I listen to them. We Are Here really shows off how fun listening to Monsta X is, but it also highlights how versatile they are with songs No Reason to round out the sound and create something that truly reflects Monsta X. Very happy! Music Plaza also delivered really quick and the album was perfect!

I absolutely love this album! I mainly buy the Kihno kits for collecting. It doesn't come with a photobook like the normal albums do, but it does come with 12 extra photo cards plus the usual 1 random photo card. The Kihno kit version is really cute, the kit that plugs into the phone has an orange background with Key's face on it and the packaging has a light blue sky background with the album title in holographic print.

I love the new songs that were included in the repackage! When I saw that he was going to have a mullet for the repackage I was bit hesitant on buying the album, but it eventually grew on me and I decided to buy it anyway. Although I'm not a big fan of the mullet, Key looks amazing in all the pictures in the photobook! I would definitely recommend others buy this album because the songs are incredible, Key is amazing, and the photos are very pretty.

Absolute perfection. Amazing album, gorgeous. Love the holo on black. The photobooks are absolutely stunning as well and the photocards are amazing, came with two big front & back cards and some stickers as a freebie but I'm unsure if that was for the preorder only or not :) Can't forget that all the tracks are absolute bops. I have no complaints and I'm so happy to have these in my collection. Everything was handled well by MusicPlaza as always, packaged wonderfully and shipped ASAP without problems.
