I have to agree with a fellow reviewer that the packaging is bulkier than I'd hoped and this made it hard to store. But I understand it was made as such so the photobook could be nice and big. Creatively, this album belongs to songwriters Mr. B.I.G and Han Seung Ho (who are not members of the group). This is indeed a 'passionate' release, thanks in part to Hongki's immense vocal ability. The album is made up of 2 really epic power ballads (Bad Woman, and Missing You), 1 not so epic, and 3 regular boring ballads. 2 out of 6 is not too bad, considering the size of the photobook, but I still wish the members of the group were more creatively involved in their music. But I like the prowess of this group (or rather, the vocalist) and will be listening for more in the future. Though I wish they would not release things left and right for the sake of staying relevant. It's better to have just one album, full of awesome songs, then 12 albums, each with one or two decent tracks, c'est vrai? Worth the buy if you want the photobook and those two songs legally. |

I must say that this one of the more passionate releases, if that's even possible. FT Island's lead singer (Lee Hongki) is passionate in general in all of his releases and he tends to able to portray feeling really well, not only when recording tracks, but when singing live as well. The release of Nappeun Yojaya 'Bad Woman' really brought the passion out of Ft Island MORE and even though this is their first release with a new band member, the chemistry is still there. This is another one of those beautiful tracks I've added to my FT Island list. When it comes to this mini album, all tracks deserve a 5/5, but its just that some stand out so much more than others, particularly Bad Woman and Missing You. Missing You is a masterpiece within itself, mixing amazing orchestra strings withe strong guitar playing, not to mention the strong vocals of the lead singer. Keudaewa Na 'You and I' is more soft, happy track and really calms you down from the strong tracks. Jaejin's vocals are really nice in this track. When its a nice sunny day, I like walking or driving to this song. This mini album definitely is a 10 out of 10. FT Island really keeps the ball rolling. PS The packaging for this is REALLY nice, hence the slightly higher price for a mini album. It's big and the paper material is nice and sturdy. Also, the photography of the group is nice as well with nice brown/tan photography and city outskirt scenes. I HIGHLY recommend this mini album. |

mini album with huge packaging!
|
Heard 'missing u', decided to buy it. Great album, nice photos, just wasn't expecting a mini album to be so huge in size. Down side if you have a tight-for-space room like mine and hate difficult to store albums. |

I don't usually buy the CDs of artists outside of my top 3 list, but this was an exception. The moment I heard the songs online, I HAD to buy it, just because they are amazing tracks. An excellent comeback! The size of the casing was definitely surprising. I never expected it to be so BIG. It's about the size of an average magazine in a convenience store, though the quality is definitely not as that... The photobook inside has about 14-ish glossy pages of very wonderfully taken shots of the members (they get about 2 spreads each) and 2 or 3 group shots. The music CD also comes on a thin slab of inked cardboard with a picture of the new member (clearly advertising him to appeal to the Primmadonna's missing Won Bin -- but I think that by now, the new guy Seung Hyun has proved his worth and is a good change). The cardboard has a 2009 calendar on the back. As for the songs, need I mention once more, that they are simply just... Fantastic? Definitely a must buy! |

Yeah, it is big. I was also dissapointed by the cover of the album. I wish it was a case. The photobook is amazing. It has such high quality pictures of the FTI boys. I like where the CD is placed. It's placed in a cardboard with a picture of Song Seunghyun. On the opposite side there is a calendar marked with their birthdates. I love the picture on the CD. I'm terribly afraid to put the CD anywhere because I don't want to ruin or scratch the picture! The songs are amazing. FT Island never fails to amuse me ^_^ |

I never expected this to be so big. o_o First of all, I'll give the songs on the CD a 10/10. I love "missing you". I also give the best ever photobook a 10/10. but then I'll subtract 2 points cuz the cover is not so good. The picture is, but not the way it was made. It's just a glossy paper like those our calendars are made of, and it just wraps around the photobook and the CD. Theres nothing really binding it together, and you have to be extra careful if you dont want to ruin the sides. For those of you who didnt know, the CD is stuck on a little cardboard which has a picture of the oh-so-hot Song Seung Hyun <3 At the back of the cardboard is a 2009 calendar^^ |

i would have to say every single song on this album are 10 points out of 10 its really nice and its nice to see more members sing you can hear jaejin's voice a lot more and the new member seunghyun is great too AND jonghun sings in track 5 (그대와 나) i'd have to say, FT island's company makes very nice albums they always have something that makes it stand out from other albums for example, the big picture book for album one, and the rainbow envelopes for album 2 |

One of FTI's best work so far!
|
Just received mine today! yay! I may be biased because I have been their Primadonna for a while now...but I have to say this is probably FTI at full force! Even though Won Bin left, they still are going strong and this is the proof. The album contains 6 songs, all are rock-ballads but 3 are melancholy like their previous works like "After Love" or "Love sick" and the other 3 are pretty happy like "First Kiss" or "I'm Happy". The mini album (which is NOT mini like a normal CD actually), also has a photobook featuring all 5 members (each has their own 4 page) and the group together. They are SO CUTE!!! lol but seriously, if you are in doubt about FT Island, try this album! I'm sure you won't be disappointed! It's worth EVERY PENNY! |
