THE AWAKENING

THE AWAKENING is the 4th mini album by GFRIEND. 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 AWAKENING holds 6 tracks. The tracklist is the same in every physical edition.

THE AWAKENING comes out in 3 physical editions: Re-Release, Standard, and 4TH MINI ALBUM. 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 box.

Across all versions, the box can hold 2 photobooks, 2 photocards, 7 postcards, and 2 boxes. Every version announces 2 photocards. 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.

2 POB are listed for this album, across 1 retailer: KPOPHERO Wholesale. For instance, KPOPHERO Wholesale gives Poster : First Press Only (Random 1 out of 2). 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. pocabase repeats the contents declared by the distributors, retailer bonuses aside, and shows a landed price with shipping and duty included. The text on this page is written from that data: when a distributor corrects a listing, the page follows.
