Service Announcement: Regarding Tariffs for US Joiners

Hi guys, Han here~

As I'm sure many of you are aware, the last few months under the Trump administration have been horrific and negatively impacted a lot of people's lives in various ways - and just this week, he enforced 25% tariffs on all imports from South Korea - this means buying albums locally in the states, or through official channels like Weverse will become significantly more expensive.

However, I wanted to reassure you guys that these changes do not affect packages marked as gifts! I will continue to provide my service as usual with no changes to price or service fees, and I will continue shipping all packages as gifts so you can enjoy this (already expensive) hobby without paying extra for the orange man's ego. I know that K-pop might not be significant compared to some of the other more serious changes he's caused, but I also know that K-Pop also serves as an escape and source of comfort for many too.

A few of you have been reaching out due to concerns, so I just wanted to reassure you all!

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me via the FMA app or website!

Magic & Purple Hearts,

Han

✨️ (Re)Introducing Personal Orders! ✨️

Hi guys, Han here!

It's been a while since I've had something special for you guys - but I come bearing good news!

I'm happy to announce that:

Personal Orders are officially back!

At the start of 2024, following a few requests from you guys, I decided to expand my services to cover more groups (namely HYBE artists + ATEEZ), but honestly speaking this was far more stressful than I anticipated, especially as order numbers were often sporadic, low and inconsistent. Not only did this mean that I often put in a lot of time and energy into GOs that ultimately didn't get any orders, but it also meant that my usual services like PC swapping were ineffective even when orders did come in because the quantities were so low.

While I don't think doing GOs for every release by the new groups was productive, I didn't want to completely scrap the service that you guys had been asking for - so I decided to bring back personal orders (POs) instead!

With personal orders you'll be able to purchase items related to ANY idol you like - as well as other K-pop adjacent things like fan site goods, PC decoration tools, and items/snacks/clothes loved by your favorite idols. Really the only requirement is that it's something I can buy online, but otherwise, I hope this will help to remove a lot of the barriers that you guys face as international fans and will make things more accessible to you!

If you're interested in placing a PO, then please check out further details on the Personal Order page (nested under the 'Shop' menu!) I'll also continue to do the same BTS and TXT GOs that I always have done, but this will give all of you the chance to get your hands on things that aren't covered by my usual services.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me via the FMA app or website! Otherwise, happy shopping!

Magic & Purple Hearts,

Han ✨

P.S. Mini-service update, but I've removed the 'Combined Shipping' listing and will not just automatically be combining orders that meet the 1-month consolidation rule!

TXT - The Star Chapter: Sanctuary {POBs Overview}

Hi guys, Han here!

It's that time of year again - comeback season! And as tradition, I have put together a visual list of all the POBs available from each store in Korea and Japan.

You can find additional information about specific POBs in each listing. And remember that K-Stores and J-Stores have been grouped into one set of listings to make things easier to navigate - but Weverse Shop Global is always separate.

Weverse Global POBs

In the graphic below, you can see a brief overview of what will be included in your order.

K-Retailer POBs + K-Events

There are 6 main stores that have POBs available in Korean, they are each offering different POBs for the Standard and Angel versions. As a rule of thumb, you can only get the OT5 PC by buying a set of the Standard version, and you get a small gift if you purchase a set of the Angel version.

In addition to the 6 main stores, there is only one store (so far) having special preorder events. There is only one set of POBs for each store so I recommend calculating the cheapest option to get all the cards you want.

Japanese POBS & LDs

For Japan, there are POBs available from Weverse, UMS Japan, Tower Records & HMV. Please make sure to read the information regarding the shipping and payments of these orders, as things work slightly differently.

As usual, lucky draw events close pretty early so they're no longer available I'm afraid.

Korean Lucky Draws

Korean LDs haven't been announced yet, but they are typically revealed a day or so after the comeback, or on the Friday following the comeback. I always open my orders as soon as the photos are released and typically close within 2~4 days, so make sure to keep your eyes out and place your orders while they're available.

Judging by the number of POBs we had this comeback, I would expect that we'll get the typical 2 rounds of LDs from the K-retailers, alongside some sort of special pop-up or concert lucky draws.

---

As always, thank you for joining my GOs and putting your trust in me. With my new place, I have a new system set up and hope to be able to get the albums out to all of you at lightning speed. I will continue to keep you guys updated as things happen and feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.

Most importantly, happy comeback! ;D

Magic & Purple Hearts,

Han 💙✨
