In the world of K-pop
Believe it or not, the significance of CDs still exists today. Entertainment companies in Korea are making big money from it.
When we say 4 versions of a CD is released, it doesn't mean 4 different CDs with different songs on them - it is actually the same CD with the same songs, but with 4 different versions of packaging.
Yep, you heard it right - different packaging!
K-pop fans these days are not buying CDs for the sake of keeping the CD. They are spending money for the different photobooks and photocards that come with it. Collectors are targeted. Some companies are even smart enough to include limited edition photocards which are issued at random, meaning the buying of CDs then turns into some kind of lottery event - if your CD contains the limited edition photocard, you've hit the jackpot!! Needless to say, there's a big aftermarket for this stuff as well - a limited edition photocard like that could sell for well over $100 AUD. And if your CD itself goes out of print, up goes the price again.
Well, ridiculous or not, there are K-pop groups like BTS breaking records continuously with just CD preorders alone!

mtbunnies © 200th!!!
Wow, mtbunnies has reached 200 comics! That's a lot of bunnies!!
I sincerely hope you enjoy reading these as much as I love making them~!
==================================
As usual for every milestone, here's another quick Q&A session to celebrate!
Q: What is the relationship between Koya and Hana exactly? They seem to live together but are not related nor married, so what's the deal?
A: Umm, it's complicated. 🤣
Q: Why doesn't Theo appear as often?
A: Theo is a little more time-consuming to draw due to his unique physical appearance. I do try to keep him involved though!
Q: Why are all the bunnies so fat?
A: Because they are cute. ❤
Q: Do you ever run out of ideas?
A: ALWAYS. Please send me your suggestions. I beg you!!! 🤣
And if you did send me an idea but I haven't drawn it, then please accept my deepest apologies. It's because I'm either unfamiliar with the topic to be able to draw it (e.g. cricket), or it's because it would require a huge amount of detail, which I have no time for...😢
If you have any other questions you'd like to ask, please leave them in the comments below~!
From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!!!
