The Phase

The Phase is a mini album by MONSTA X, released on September 4, 2026. 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 Phase holds 6 tracks; the title track is “MAGIC”. The tracklist is the same in every physical edition.

The Phase comes out in 14 physical editions, among them MONMUNGCHI FRIENDS Limited, DIGIPAK, OFFSET, REFINED, HYPER, and PHASE. 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 poster, and the stickers.

Across all versions, the box can hold one photobook, 9 photocards, one poster, one sticker sheet, one disc, one QR or NFC card, and one box. The photocard count runs from 1 to 9 depending on the version. 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 88 pages.

11 POB are listed for this album, across 2 retailers: KpopB2B and KPOPHERO Wholesale. For instance, KpopB2B gives Pre-Order Benefit. 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. Out of 14 versions, 6 carry a recorded EAN: this 13-digit barcode names one precise edition, and it is the safest check before buying.
