CLC チャミスマ Chamisma - Mini Album Review (Type A CD Only Edition)

A big milestone in my J-Pop collecting saga was recently finally completing my CLC Japanese discography. The Korean group has released two mini albums in Japan both with multiple versions. I thought first we'd look at their second Japanese mini album チャミスマ Chamisma as it was the release that got me interested in collecting their Japanese discography in the first place. This review will look at the Type A CD Only Edition of チャミスマ Chamisma released exclusively through Tower Records Japan.


チャミスマ Chamisma Type A CD Only
チャミスマ Chamisma is CLC's second Japanese mini album and was released in 2016. The mini album is available in three editions: Type A CD Only, Type B CD+DVD and Type C CD+DVD. The mini album is exclusively available through Tower Records in Japan and wasn't released through any other Japanese stores. I brought Type A of the mini album from Bookoff via Zenmarket and the CD was in great condition. I've always gotten excellent items from Bookoff which are always in top condition. Type A of チャミスマ Chamisma comes with the following contents:
  • CD - 5 Track Album
  • Lyrics Booklet
  • Jewel Case
  • OBI Strip


Each edition of チャミスマ Chamisma has a different concept and Type A has this adorable gingham cheerleader concept. The front cover has the girls in a cheerleader pose with pom poms and the super adorable CLC logo. Honestly the group has one of the best logos in K-Pop as it's a cute kitty! The back cover contains another photo of the girls along with the track listing and production information which is standard to Japanese releases. I loved seeing a photo of the group on the back and not just a boring plain colour or backdrop.




Inside the jewel case, you'll find the adorable gingham print featured on the girls outfits behind the CD. When I first got this mini album, I was in love with the design! All the little details are amazing such as the colour scheme, hints of the cheerleader concept and the fonts used. The CD has a simple look with some logos and the mini album title.
