SHINee will be making their highly anticipated comeback after two and a half years with their new album. Because of this, the boy group has released the details behind the album which fans can order online.
The new album is titled "Don't Call Me", and fans can enjoy this aspect of selecting a package containing the merchandise they want. Generally, K-pop idol albums do contain several items that are worth collecting other than the album itself.
The merchandise on the "Don't Call Me" album includes items such as photo books, posters, and postcards. But there is one item that is making younger fans feel a huge generational gap.
The item in question was a payphone card, and one young fan even expressed confusion over the item in comments on the internet. The fan asked, "What is a phone card?"
Since cell phones became commonplace among the public, payphone cards have gradually disappeared in Korea as well as around the world. However, when payphones were still used frequently, teenagers liked to collect payphone cards featuring photos of their favorite idols.
Although this is no longer a problem, SHINee invites us to reminisce about the good old days. Interestingly because of this, fans also feel a large generation gap.
Meanwhile, SHINee's new album will be released on February 22. SM Entertainment previously shared that SHINee's seventh full album will contain a total of nine songs from various genres. Previously it was also revealed that one of the b-side albums to be released on February 22 is titled "Marry You". (wk / dewi)
