OMG I liked how you organized the binder !! I love it !!

Thank you - great, clear and helpful explanation

Weren’t you quiting?

Hii! I just saw this vid and may I ask where do you buy albums?? Thanks!! And BTW I'm a new subscriber ^ - ^

I was only able to watch 12 mins of this, so maybe I'm totally wrong.. But I just wanted to say I disagree with you on some things. And maybe hearing this will make you think about it more. You listed some really valid reasons for still continuing which I think have a much heavier weight than your cons list. Yes its tiring and expensive but every single hobby is. You sound like you still get joy and have fun doing this. Maybe instead of full quitting, you just need to cut down on your spending and take breaks from it to ease the mental burden. Rather than go from 100 to 0, maybe try 60. I've discovered this hobby really is so diff depending on who you surround yourself with and what platform you spend time in... (Example: twitter is more toxic than instagram but instagram is very draining emotionally). Secondly your point about depreciating in value... Korea was a country before the west discovered it and it will continue to be one even after the "trend" dies down. I found that comment kind of ...yikes, to put it nicely.. Kpop is not a western trend. It's a music genre. Korean music will still be made even after Americans get bored of it. There will always be an audience for it. I have been a fan of metal music for a long long time even before and after people talked about it. The fans are still there, they still exist. 10+ years can go by and items that were collectibles 10 years ago are still worth the same or more. Its 3am so I hope these points were explained properly or at leasey enough to give you something to think about!

Did you sell your albums as well or just the photo cards?

I'm collecting IU's albums and I can't believe you have Modern Times epilogue (the repackage). So beautiful!

Best video ever

Very helpful❤

Cute!! Have you heard IU's new album 'The Winning' ??? 😊😊😊✨✨

Girl don’t do it that way hard for a Kpop merch

im super late to this video, but i wanted to watch downsizing videos because i recently put all my albums in bins rather than displaying them and im selling a few of them after not collecting for close to two years now. i really enjoyed this video and it was really interesting to hear you list these pros and cons directly because it resonated with my personal collecting as well. i appreciate this a lot :) i tend to become a collector of things i like fast and i feel like i need to take a step back and reflect on why this pattern of becoming overwhelmed keeps happening especially recently. my collections grow very fast and im the type of person where if i like something it will be in the forefront of my mind constantly but i think that just leads to burnout quickly. a hobby should never cause more stress than it does happiness when you think about it, and when it does its time to take a step back. a hobby is the most fun when its in moderation. with kpop, i stopped fully engaging in the fandoms in 2021 and now i just see a kpop related video/tiktok every blue moon; im not listening to any kpop regularly at the very moment, and all of my albums are in bins, but i still consider myself a fan and enjoy the music. i like having this hobby without it being my entire personality like i feel like it once was. i literally just listen to the music sometimes and see content whenever and im not trying to keep up with every news update or vlive or interview or comeback or music video right away. i respect people who engage in kpop more than i do because it was fun especially to engage with other fans and form a community of friends. but for me, i dont like how it felt like it was all i did and like you listed the cons just outweighed the pros for me. currently, i collect dolls and im finding myself to be stressed when i think about them because of feeling like i have too many especially in the short time that i have been collecting. its a hobby heavily involving consumerism and i feel like having this at the forefront of my mind isnt healthy for me. i constantly consume doll related media whether its on twitter or youtube or instagram about the newest releases or just discussions about dolls in general. although its fun to look at, i think limiting a hobby can be beneficial because it doesn't feel like its overtaking my life. perhaps just watching doll content on youtube and getting off of twt and insta can help me take a step back to enjoy what i do have rather than constantly scrolling through new releases and engaging in “leaks” and news. i think in general with collecting as a hobby, it can be easy to get too carried away and we have to remind ourselves why we are buying these things in the first place. i feel that kpop albums should be bought to genuinely enjoy the songs on the album with a physical cd to play, or appreciating the package design with a purposeful place for it, not to just complete a collection or because i like the title track. a doll should be bought because it brings joy to look at or play with, not to just complete a line or because of fomo. i feel like taking a step back from the title of a “collector” can help tremendously when realizing that i should buy something because i truly love it and care for it rather than just because im a “collector”. for example, one of the last albums i got as a collector was each version of thursdays child by txt and i remember not caring to get them bc i hadnt kept up with txt in a while but feeling like i needed to because i had gotten every txt album version beforehand and i was a “txt album collector”. (same story with the rose). for dolls, i feel like sometimes i will buy it impulsive because i simply think its cute or because its more expensive elsewhere and not because im really in love with it. but at the end of the day a hobby should mainly revolve around me enjoying what i have and, not shopping for more unless it really speaks to me. i can enjoy that new album on spotify and i can look at other people’s pictures of that doll online, i dont physically neeeeed *everything* i like. your statement about selling things to let someone else find joy in them instead of sentimentally holding on to them opened my eyes to sell more of my albums because im realizing that a lot of my later ones involved me feeling like i “needed” to get them rather than me being excited to flip through the photobook. i want to appreciate what i have after downsizing. whether thats taking out my albums to look through the inclusions and playing them on the cd player, or taking photos and reposing/restyling my dolls instead of falling into the consumerist habits of just buying buying buying as a hobby. and try to realize why i began to love this hobby in the first place :) anyway, im really sorry for this superrrr long comment!! (i should probably start journaling) its probably the longest comment ive ever made, but i really wanted to get this off my chest and i hope someone can read this and appreciate their hobby in a new light too :) i really appreciate your insights in the video and im glad you are putting your happiness first!

Really good video TBH. I just have a question. What are your opinion on 6 ringed binders and would you recamened them over D-ringed binders?

It’s too bad IU’s music company didn’t release a cd single of “Strawberry Moon” with this photo card set. I think that every Seasons Greetings should come with a Cd album of songs or a DVD of official videos. The limited editions should come with a DVD of the official videos, or the album repackages should have a DVD with the official videos. The anti-theft technology has been perfected. K-pop should be about the music. It is getting to be about the artist’s pictures. There are several examples that I have run across: 1. IU Documentary, $80 for a big binder of pictures and a Cd of only five beautiful acoustic songs. 2. Apink “Miracle” single, $30 for a big book of pictures and a Cd of one song. 3. Apink Pink Space, $50 for a large booklet of pictures and a concert DVD with five video performances - instead of a complete concert. -- IU and Apink are two of my favorites. I’ve purchased Japanese and Taiwanese K-pop Girl Group albums with the official videos for Oh My Girl the Banana album, Apink Pink Up, Red Velvet Sappy, and Gfriend “Flower” that come with a DVD of the official videos. These are some of my K-pop Girl Group Treasures!

I‘m so excited for the collection video

just be happy <3

like 42

t-money cards can be personalized/customized at stations! i looked it up and i haven't found any official collabs with her, so...

Promo SM

OMG HAECHAN i had a feeling idk why lmao

The LP, isn't sold out already? released a few weeks ago My Golden Hour MD from ktown4u is delayed too QQ

Thanks for sharing! Excited for your new videos! ❤

Awesome!

ahhhh I’m so happy you uploaded again! I look forward to your next video!

The train postcard is so nice🥰 I'm so excited for a new IU collection video, the first one was my first yt video of yours

I can't believe how close you are to completing the mychew cards! I remember how few you had at the beginning, and the progress you've made had been so fun to watch. I think for the t-money cards, they are like collaboration cards. Its a system where you pick the card you want and then put however much money you want on them in order to use them for the train and stuff. So when groups have comebacks sometimes they will collaborate with t-money and release a set of cards. So they are like limited time cards I think? That's what I have gathered, but I could have gotten something wrong! I really enjoyed the update because I love the way you collect and organize IU!

Always ready for some train talk

🍾

Yeeeeeeeeeey so happy to see you post 💜💜

omggg welcome back!! you're literally my fave pc collector on yt and i'm glad you're back here 🎉

I watched this a while ago when u posted and thought to myself if I would ever feel the same, now many months later I kinda do! im not quitting collecting, tbh I dont have much in my life so if I quit id potentially be a husk of a person lmfao...but with that being said im really drifting fom the community and I strongly relate to the way u went about this. Thank u for this video!

so nice to see your hands and hear your voice, Lady. Thank you for sharing. I love that photo book and those posters. Well, really, I love everything about that kit. But, I might be more than a lot biased. 😊 Would love to see the reorganized IU & Taeyeon collections when you have the time and are feeling it. ❤

Do you collect Taeyeon got the beat?

Ahhh I missed your videos! Love IU

Omggg welcome back!

Ahh i took a nap and woke up to this😭 welcome back<333

I missed your videos so much 🤏🏻 I think with just two people to collect one video will be enough? Not sure because IU have a lot of stuff 😥

Ahhhh so excited to see the notification! 🥰🥰

Ahhhhhhhh! I'm really missed you and your IU videos! 🥺 Thanks for sharing ❤

ahh i missed you! excited to see your updated collection and your journey here on out!

this is the most detailed pocket page comparison i've seen, thank you!

The fact that I found you channel a couple days ago and now I see this video makes me sad. I watched all your videos and your voice and the way you explained in detail for each of your videos was so calming and great!! Thank you for these videos!!

all absolute bangers 💜 i've developed special love for some of the pieces songs like winter sleep and next stop, they are such beautiful nostalgic, sad songs, but iu's discography in general is amazing

omg thank god you kept the iu collection 🛐

To be honest i think i needed a video like this because i strugle to drop my collection because i put lots of money into it and the legendary "what will other say". Of course i still don't want to sell all of my collection and still collect idols that are in my top20 or top10 and i would really like to use money for my other intests.

Really appreciate this video! Can’t wait for collection update hehe

ive been debating so much about what to do with my own collection.. i’m an ot8 skz collector (reg album sets that I like/some pob sets/some rare merch) I do have collections for A LOT of other groups I definitely plan on selling when I get the time (despite it taking a lot of time to organise it) but honestly I really do think of what else I could be spending my money on / investing in and it makes me reconsider (especially when I think of how much i’ve spent since I started collecting) I’m going through my pcs as i’m watching your video and i’m really glad I came across this because I know you will inspire other people (myself included) to do what’s best for them like you did for you! I can really feel the sincerity and honesty when you talk about your pros and cons and it makes me go oh so i’m not so alone in the way i’m feeling?? (especially when you mention stuff like feeling as part of a community and not wanting to feel isolated from it) thank you for this video!!

may I ask what is the content of the blu ray?

Where do you buy the binder? Its beautifull

Voltage is so good ⚡
