What does US label mean?

What does US label mean?

the Korean companies have contracted with someone like Sony , interscope ,warner ect to distribute in the US and maybe even print albums.

So does that mean the albums at Wal Mart have slight differences from an official Korean album?

if they print it here for sure , but if it has teh Korean sticker on it the company is just acting as a go between.
That would be my best guess.
it may even double or triple count ie count on both the Korean charts like hanto and circle and teh bill board chart.

My walmat also has StayC

but I think differences are mainly like you get a poster more or a sticker or whatever, like with those Target versions!

I did not. But it was tempting I won't lie.

 

[Moguri]

[Drew_B]

which one did you want to get?

The Itzy album. It was big and pretty.

 

[Moguri]

The Itzy album. It was big and pretty.

[Drew_B]

True. It's nice knowing they are there. I can go get it anytime and not have to wait a month for shipping.
