Are you the kind of fan who buys every version of each album your favorite group drops?

I only buy one version, my hobbies are diverse and some of them can be expensive. I also tend to be multifandoms so I can't really afford to buy several versions each time that a group or a soloist that I like decide to come back.

Well... I'm not the kind of person, who buys kpop albums that often.

I only buy one version of an album.

For me, it feels weird because I think about the fact that the CD in the album, no matter what version, contains the same tracks. And I'm not the kind of person, who would want two CDs containing the same thing.

Even though if it happens that one of the CDs breaks, then it is maybe a good thing to have two of them. (even though you can listen to the album online or something) And well... when my brother was younger, he used to break the video game discs when he didn't want to play the video game anymore. (I don't think he went around breaking CDs containing music though)

I only buy the best, most of the time, the limited editions, and I only buy my ultimate faves.

I've had a large collection, but basically lost all of it in a fire. Yeah, all my Mamamoo, SNSD, Red Velvet, BoA, IU, Taeyeon and many other is a dust. Now, I only have 1 shelf basically, because I can't find the old albums anywhere, and even if I love some new groups, I still didn't buy any of their albums.

The only albums I buy now is: Mamamoo (group and solo), IU, Taeyeon, Kim Sejeong, RV and that's all, basically.

I wanna buy KIOF, Young Posse, and some others, but I'm broke as hell.

really depends but i guess more often i buy 1 than buying multiple versions. unless it's an album i really like buying all versions feels like a waste even if i can afford them

No, if I buy it is 1 version.

If there was a time an album had 2 I really loved, then I could buy 2, but it's not something I do. I just don't want to have unnecessary albums taking up space, it's a waste if I won't even see them/look at them again. I have other things/hobbies I'd rather have take up my space (and money).

1 version with the design I love most is enough.

I’ve only ever bought one album in the past, but this time with Gidle’s new album I Sway (coming out on Monday) I’m buying one normal version and one cassette tape version, because I currently can afford it and I’m feeling nostalgic for the cassettes of my youth, lol.

I still have an old sound system that can play cassettes so I want to listen to what it sounds like .

I buy every version.

I had to pay shipping 3 times because Nayeon didn't release every ver at once.

I've only purchased one version of Girls' Generation's physical albums.

Except TTS's Dear Santa mini albums which had a green and red jacket covers, so I just wanted to splurge.

But, over the past 4 years, I've purchased music digitally because there was no way I'd have space to store the physical versions. Plus, they'd become extra baggage when moving.

So, my answer is "I Technically never buy physical albums."

Never bought any kpop album, maybe im not too deep to admire the kpop group since the wonder girls - nobody era.. Always follow the good song for me from any group and never forcing to like the song when its not suit my taste even from fav group. Just listen and enjoy the korean entertainment all this time

Nope this would be wastefull and too expensive, especially since different versions of albums are all way too similiar and don't offer that much of a difference

I would understand it more if it would be:

Version A has the 5 songs, a 10 page photobook, maybe a photocard and a goodie

Version B has 5 other songs, a total different photbook with 10 pages, 2 goodies you won't find in version A (no photocard)

Version C has 2 songs of Version A and 2 of version B and another song that is not in any of these versions, a different photobook again, than 2 different photocards

But most albums be like:

Version A, B, C,D are the same songs, same photobook, just Version A has a blue sleeve, version B a green sleeve, Version C a red sleeve, Version D a pink sleeve, each version another photocard-set where you can get 1 card from. The end

and so its usless.

I only buy 1 version even if there might be benefits in a more expensive special one or they drop like 8 versions of the same album with barly any differences in each one.

Also I'm not rich, don't have so much space in my shelf or apartment in general and it would look hidious if I would try to place too many items in a tiny bookshelf

No, my rule is 1 version per album no matter what.

We have too many garbage problem in the world. Let's not indulge consumerism and send message to these money hunger industry to stop take fans loyalty for granted. Make them create more music, not PC of the member .

It's actually expensive to import albums to my country. If I'm buying, you bet it's going to be only one version.

never bought a kpop album before

I actually never saw a physical copy of a kpop album prior to like this year lol
