Many fans were convinced that the components were Yeonjun’s idea, pointing out how uncharacteristic it would be of HYBE to be so generous with their album packaging.
While the content of the album itself had fans raving, the price of the album has won Yeonjun even higher praises. Despite the high-quality packaging and added perks like the mini figurine, it is priced at ₩28,900 KRW (about $ 21.70 USD), much lower than most HYBE albums.
Netizens took to online communities to praise the TXT member for his genuine love toward his fans, which they felt was reflected through every aspect of this album packaging.
- This album wasn’t planned by the company, but rather had more of Yeonjun’s input. Judging from the price, it seems like it was really made to be a gift to the fans. I’m so impressed with Yeonjun.”
- “MOAs were so surprised by the price. I expected it to be over 50,000 KRW because of the figure, but it’s so good! This album really seems like a fan service album. I wonder if Yeonjun’s inputs were heavily reflected in it? Anyway, it’s great! Haha.”
- “It feels like 100% Yeonjun’s idea… HYBE wouldn’t release something so generous when they could have sold it as an expensive limited edition. I thought I wouldn’t be able to get the limited-edition album, but it looks like there’s more stock than expected and the price is affordable, so I grabbed one right away.”
- “Yeonjun always takes care of his fans…He’s the best kind of idol to be a fan of. As Beomgyu’s tweet said today, even though he must be tired and struggling lately, he doesn’t let it show in front of his fans. When fans worry, he tells them he is happy TT.”
- “At this point, this is a whole event. These days, even keyrings are ridiculously priced, but to have a genuinely Yeonjun-like limited edition album for the mixtape is just fantastic.”
