    Thank you for writing the article 😁 I am looking forward to get this album too. He has been covering so many Japanese songs it's finally time to make an album out of it. Also I am happy he chose a lot of different songs under the theme 'love'. He also chose to cover Kanade by Sukima Switch the same song Junsu performed. It would be beautiful if we could hear a duet between them😍 It's also ranking #1 on Amazon😊 I hope the album gets lots of love from people 🥰
