KILLERZINE

SHINee – KILLER (ZINE) is one physical edition of the 2nd repackage by SHINee, released on February 13, 2023. This is a physical CD: disc, photobook and cards in one box. The album is released by SM Entertainment.

The box declared by the distributor holds one photobook, one photocard, one poster, one postcard, and one sticker sheet. The photobook runs to 76 pages. One photocard is announced. One photocard is drawn at random out of 2 designs: two copies do not give the same cards. It also holds ARTIST, TITLE, and LABEL, as declared by the distributor.

2 POB are listed for this version: KPOPHERO Wholesale gives Poster (Folded) : First press only and KPOPHERO Wholesale gives Poster (Folded) : First press only. A POB (preorder benefit) is a bonus from the retailer, never from the label: it changes from one shop to the next and is gone once the preorder window closes.

KILLER comes in 5 versions, among them ZINE, GAMEPACK, QR, and SMini. The tracklist does not change from one version to the next: only the box, the photocards and the artwork do. The declared contents of ZINE match the other versions: the database records no difference in items.

This is an official edition: bought from an authorised retailer, it counts towards the Hanteo and Circle charts, which measure physical sales in South Korea. EAN 8809755506896 points to this exact edition: it is the code to check before buying, because every version carries its own.
