cofemix Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 just to clarify Only the Japanese version has the DVD and only the Korean version has the signed postcards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candiesrus Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 ^ I think so. I don't think the korean version will come with DVD , and I don't think the Japanese version has the signed postcards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlskam Posted February 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I just received my copy of the Japanese version. I personally feel the DVD is worth it. It has a 7-min introduction+making scenes and a 3-min photo slide show for each of the members (total=15+mins). You will be able to view the most of photos that are in the photobook + some extras on the big screen. You can even print screen to save the pics to use as your desktop wallpaper. I guess nothing beats holding on to a first-press copy anyway. I was also wondering if the quality of the Korean photobook is compromised since it is so much cheaper. We shall see who has a copy of the Korean version to verify this. Just my two-cents worth if you are thinking about which version to buy.

k1s3k1 Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 diskam, can you take a screenshot of the DVD slideshow please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatriz Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Effectively, the Korean edition will be released on on day 21 and will have 304 pages, postcards signed by them and the letters written by them. For those who have bought the Japanese version like me is a sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those who have bought the Japanese version like me is a sucks. The Japanese version has the personal letters of the girls too. They are at the back of the book. As for the number of pages, they are both the same. So the only difference between the Japanese and Korean versions are the postcards vs the DVD. And of course the price. That's about it.
