A power point showing different sorts of CD covers for my A2 media studies course.

1. K-pop Album Covers

2. BIGBANG – The MADE Series
o The group BIGBANG released 4 singles over 2015 with their comeback, with
the whole thing being called the MADE series. All four of the albums are the
same just different colour schemes, and when they are put together make to
word MADE. There are 5 stripes on the albums which represent the 5
members of the group. They haven’t put the name BIGBANG on the covers at
all which can show that the are confident that people will know it is their
album just from all the publicity they get.

3. GOT7 – Just Right
 The album cover for GOT7’s Just Right mini album
uses very bright and blocky colours. The blue
background makes the hand and text stand out and
catches your attention. The name of the group is
clear, but it is very small compared to the title of
the album. the photo of one of the members hands
making the ‘OK’ sign links to the title track. Overall
the album is very simple.

4. BTS – The Most Beautiful Moment in Life pt.1
and pt.2
 The group BTS or Bangtan Boys, released 2 mini
albums in 2015, called The Most Beautiful Moment
in Life pt 1 and 2. they are simple designs showing
falling petals and on the pt2 album a butterfly
representing one of the songs on the album. They
have put the names of the group and album on but
they are very small and also simple. The albums go
with the image the group was presenting at the
time of release; their concept. They wanted a slow,
tranquil sort of feel.
Pt 1
Pt 2

5. VIXX – Chained Up
 VIXX’s Chained Up album has 2 covers. There is
the ‘Freedom’ version and ‘Control’ version which
represents the concept the group has for this
album. This choice gives the fans a change to
choose which one they want, and can get the
company more money for avid fans, which many
K-Pop fans are will be willing to get both.
