Does anyone actually like non-Korean releases by groups? (2 Viewers)

I often prefer Japanese versions of Korean songs ...

I’m not a big fan but the Japanese releases are ok.

I don't really care for the idea that groups should make English versions to cater to the English speaking audience. If the group cannot make their breakthrough within the western audience with their original tracks, I'm pretty sure that songs sang in (often) broken English wouldn't cut it either.

I tend to find it hard to listen to alternative versions anyway, if I've already gotten used to the original. It's just disorienting, so I usually just have a couple listens and then go back to the original haha.

Really no Call Call Call/Happy Ending in here?

Some others I like

this whole album is amazing
BTS also has some great Japanese tracks (at least the ones that aren't just translated Korean tracks), and MX's Who Do You Love is also great!
