Olivia (verified owner) – Toronto, Canada – February 22, 2026
The album has great songs, and the photobook is nice. Shipping from Korea took about two weeks. I wish there was more info in English though.
Isla – Nashville, USA – February 9, 2026
I really like WONHO’s music. This album has a nice variety of songs. The photo book is well put together and the quality is good too. I got my order quickly, which was great because I’m excited to have it in hand now.
Freja (verified owner) – Linköping, Sverige – January 15, 2026
Jag är en K-pop fan och gillade albumet. Fint omslag, fotoboken var överraskande tjock. Bra låtar också! Lite långsam leverans dock.
Penny Black – January 6, 2026
I recently unboxed Wonho’s 2nd single album, Bittersweet, and I was blown away. Each song is so unique and special, making the single album feel complete. I seriously think these are some of my favorite Wonho photobooks of all time, and I feel so blessed to have gotten all three versions.
Aiden (verified owner) – Los Angeles, USA – December 29, 2025
I bought this album and really like the photo book inside. The random photo card was a fun surprise too. However, it took a week to get here in LA which wasn’t bad but longer than I thought.
Olivia (verified owner) – Melbourne, Australia – October 15, 2025
Came quickly and looked great in the package. The photobook has nice photos. Album sounds amazing, really enjoying the music so far.
