About this album
THE ALBUM is the 1st full album by BLACKPINK. This page gathers every physical edition listed in pocabase: box contents, photocard count, retailer POB and EAN, version by version, so you can pick one without opening ten tabs.
The tracklist of THE ALBUM is not verified in pocabase yet. It stays the same from one physical edition to the next: the box changes, the music does not.
THE ALBUM comes out in 14 physical editions, among them Standard, Version 1, Version 2, Version 3, Version 4, and Jewel Case. From one version to the next the music does not change: the box contents do. What changes from one version to the next: the photobook, the photocards, the postcards, and the lyric booklet.
Across all versions, the box can hold one photobook, one photocard, 3 postcards, 2 lyric booklets, and one box. Every version announces 1 photocard. Part of the photocards are drawn at random: two copies of the same album do not give the same cards, which is what keeps trading alive between fans. The thickest photobook runs to 96 pages.
No POB is listed for THE ALBUM in pocabase. A POB (preorder benefit) is a bonus given by the retailer during the preorder window, never by the label: it changes from one retailer to the next and is gone afterwards. It is often what decides where to preorder.
These are official editions: bought from an authorised retailer, they count towards the Hanteo and Circle charts, which measure physical sales in South Korea and feed the music show rankings and votes. No EAN is recorded for these versions yet. The EAN is the 13-digit barcode that names one precise edition: it is the safest check before buying.
