MY STORY Korean Version: http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept...section-music/

12'99$ MY STORY Korean Version Vs. 19.99$ of (miss)understood Korean version...

And almost 30$ for CD+DVD... that's NOT cheap. I've paid 22$ (s&h included!) for my OS (miss)understood CD+DVD on eBay... And it was shipped on 6th January, while this is a pre-order until 19th...

I'm wondering why the Korean version is so expensive all of a sudden. Usually Korean versions of regular CDs are $12-$14 (USD), not $27 (USD). Either Avex suddenly rose the price or YesAsia is ripping people off.

I'm still waiting for the Overseas version.

^I think YesAsia wants more money.
The Korean ver. isn't worthy of my money. I'll be waiting for the OS version.

eh?

From wiki-
Quote:
SM Entertainment is the main producer of Korean pop music, and is the management agency of several Korean pop stars. The company is named after its CEO, Soo-Mahn Lee
official site with ayu advert- http://www.smtown.com/


and record company profile-
Quote:
S.M. Entertainment Co., Ltd. is a independent South Korean record label founded in 1995. They primarily release local dance/pop artists, but also license foreign releases for the Asian market.
From a BoA forum, another Avex artist-
Quote:
SM Entertainment is the Korean music company that produces BoA's stuff.
Avex Trax is the Japanese music company that produces BoA's stuff.

Both are official.
Get your facts right first

yesasia is slightly ripping you off. check out annyoung.com:

CD+Photobook Ver.
CD+Photobook+DVD Ver.

also notice that they call the album "Misunderstanding". pfft x]
and annyoung is releasing it 3 days ahead of yesasia (1/16 instead of 1/19)

remember that japanese music is always going to be slightly expensive, regardless of where it's released (as opposed to other genres of music released in the same country).

and the CD only ver. might be a little more expensive this time b/c of its photobook inclusion.

^ tl1029530921's friend is probably right. that store has been around for QUITE A WHILE...so i would assume so.

btw, just to give you guys an idea of how much YESASIA (not avex) is ripping you off:

from shopping @ bugs.co.kr

CD+DVD+Photobook // 20,800 won (~$21.18 USD)
CD+Photobook // 16,300 won(~$16.60 USD)

so yeah, around $9 USD for the CD+DVD and $3 USD for the CD

plus, korea is offering gifts (bromides?).

CD+DVD+Photobook+Gift // 22,300 won (~$22.71 USD)
CD+Photobook+Gift // 17,800 won (~$18.12 USD)

so even w/ the gifts, they're STILL cheaper than yesasia's editions w/o gifts. T__T.

also, to clear things up from ^ there, SM TOWN functions as both a record label & distributing company. it's like Avex Asia - i'm not sure if Avex Asia is a record label in itself, but it distributes for other companies besides avex, including Toy's Factory.
