It's also priced as a booster so fans are meant to buy multiples.

The regular album is like 23ish and these booster albums are like 8-9

Yeah, I think this idea is genius, really hopping on that Pokemon and trading cards hype train and capitalizing on people's gacha urges.

Pioneers in this concept, I wouldn't be surprised other kpop groups follow after. Especially if this significantly lead to increased album sales, they're still classified as albums, especially now that "photocards" are tiered have difference chances vs before traditionally each photo card had the same odds.

Though I believe legally, may not apply to S Korea, the "drop rate" must be advertised but I think it only applies to online games.

Very interesting move.

I do think it is a very interesting move - I'm sure Liz/Leeseo had a hand in it lol

Im hearing mixed reporting. I heard some say its one or two card only which would be very odd
