    I found out that my copy is translucent Color. more like MMJ SRX or Mofi Supervinyl. I bought this one right after it was released in Korea. I found out this 28 years after I have owned this. lol
    does anyone check the color?

      the innersleeve image on this listing is not the original. that one is from Seoul Records. This one is pressed and manufactured by Yeh Eum which is a different company. It comes in BMG logo innersleeve. I will update it later

        This is a fantastic sounding 1st Korean press that any collector needs to own! Not only is the back art and track list (5/7) different but it also has one of the best soundstage I have heard for any of the og pressings.

          i don't know about if it's pressed only 500. but when it was released it was widely available at the market and i have seen the ad on music magazines. so it was d properly not as much as G N' R from the same label. songs have been aired quite often as well. even after so, it was not difficult to find this album on vinyl.
          and later the label released Bleach (1994). even at that time this album was at the market. probably pressed again. so i don't think it's pressed 500.
          if so, it should be really difficult to find nowadays. maybe for the first run 500?
          btw, it's quite common that Korean pressings have a different track listing or order.
          but this case is quite unusual considering that it doesn't have any deleted or added songs.
          plus the back sleeve has a different image than other pressings.
          yes. quite unique pressing!

            Dear ThulsaDoomMetal,
            From what I've been able to find out, the pressing was not slated for a South Korean press due to low sales, then a small pressing was issued for a test run.
            I've heard 500 pressed. (From more than one source). The press was made in South Korea...hince the odd mix of 5 on one side 7, on the other.

              also should note that this pressing has 5 songs on side 1 and 7 on side 2
              so its an entirely different master plate
