^ Just below the Mr., there is a Lupin XD

There's a pretty girl too :D

Not only are there only ten tracks, but one's an old song, two are intros and outros, and another is an instrumental. That's six full (new) songs for an album. SIX! This is why I hate putting any faith in Korea pulling through when it comes to albums. At least we know that in Japan when they say we're getting an album, it's actually an album and not a lame excuse for one like this. That being said, the track titles sound good and the cover is absolutely incredible, but I would be so much happier about this if they called it a mini and not an album. They've only released one PROPER Korean album to date, and that was their first. The second had 8 actual songs, which is not a full album if you ask me, and now this. Extremely disappointed, especially since they're my all-time favorite K-Pop group.

5 new songs, 나는.. (ING) was from the pretty girl mini!

I'm really disappointed with the tracklist too I'm surprised they didn't include Lupin and Jumping, and if we were to get old songs I'd rather they did Korean versions of JLC/GGS rather than the b-side + 나는.. :gun

Disappointed with the packaging too idk why their calling it a ~special edition~ when it's just a digipak and 32 page booklet?? that's the norm for k-pop releases!! such a downgrade from revolution

ok done being a debbie downer i can't wait to see the full STEP mv i luv everything :weep should be out anytime now...

^Oh, I counted that as the acoustic one (and old), not one of the six full songs. Not that "Dear Kamilia" is new, but I guess it's new in Korean :\

So true! Just look at T-ARA's "Breaking Heart" repackage. Even the non-limited one had a ton of pages in its photobook.

Either way, I'm excited for the album, but I'm definitely not getting my hopes up since DSP already disappointed me yet again by dciding to release such a small "album". I just find it really funny how their only legit full albums are the one without Jiyoung and Hara and the one in Japanese. An 8 track album (Revolution) just doesn't count as a real album to me, but even that had more full, new songs than STEP will. But I'll stop being negative. They're my favorite K-Pop group and I really can't wait to hear the songs that are actually new.

album is out:heart
omfg, step :thud

Step just topped Jumping for me...omgg..this song is so powerful!!!!!!!

^they should have added jumping into the album to make it even more perfect:heart
i love all the album! all songs are really nice <3

now i need MV to see the choreo

another pic :luv2

Only listened to Step yet, but it's defenitely one of the best korean songs released this year :D. It's good to see that DSP is putting real effort into giving them good material.

lyrically its definitely already better than Jumping in Korean i think, which seemed rather slipshod after the success of it in Japan LOL

the album is really good :D I like all the songs! this is really rare for k-pop releases, especially KARA ones.

hmm does 나는.. (Ing) (Acoustic Ver.) have new vocals? I barely listened to that song but don't remember their voices sounding this strong :O kind of shocked.

Little bit messy, too much focus on Hara (I usually like her, but the outfit at the beginning makes her somehow look bad). Other than that, I'm slowly starting to fall in love with Nicole. She always has this nice confident expression :D.

Awh the video already got removed :weep I really wanted to see it~

^here you have! from official channel

^ :heart Aah thank you!! I didn't think it'd be out officially yet!! /watches

this is just too awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >.<
so energetic and colourful and a mix of sexy and cute altogether..
i thought it'd be hard to fight with Lupin but for me, though stylistically different but quality wise on par
