i'm so dating myself here but anyone remember the albino guy in 'the princess bride' movie? "you're in the pit of despair..."?

He’s too feminine in looks and showing this pic doesn’t help a bit…nothing much new here just trying to revive some old style not bad…

well i thnk he looks scary... or like L from deathnote

bioman?

LOL at the Lady Gaga comment.

But yea, I dunno why he has many fangirls, he's too feminine for my taste.

And dunno about the album cover, sooo weird.

LOVE IT...

and i agree. he's got loads of ideas compared to other k-pop stars.

now that's what i call CREATIVITY :)

i totally agree with amy and djes

his music teaser thing is almost exactly the same as rain's
talk about originality...

also, he looks like a woman /transsexual here, i'm not liking the look!

from what i know of lee junki, he doesn't seem to have a great voice, and you can tell even from the teaser that he can't dance, cos all of the dancing bits are from the backing dancers... just stick to acting!

HOLY SH##
I seriously don't know what to think about it...I don't even know if I like it or if I hate it...
this is sure something I didn't expect to see

i totally agree with amy and djes

his music teaser is a complete ripoff from rain's video for rainism.
talk about originality!

also, here he looks like an albino woman/ transsexual...not liking the look!
i'm not such a fan of lee junki lol. i don't find the feminine thing attractive.

i don't think he has a great voice,either and he can't dance at all (in the music teaser all the dancing is from his backing dancers)

just stick to acting...

your comments are so funny javabeans hehehe
the photos were not released officially though, they were freaging leaked!!!

I like the concept actually. One of the commenters said something like why doesn't he be like the rest of the singers with his concept! if he do that, then how do you expect him to stand out among all of these singers!!
that's not ego!

fighting Junki oppa :D

Somebody wants to be Ziggy Stardust........
or if he were Nihonjin I would say he was making a cross over between visual kei and pop....I guess he could still be doing that.

who would want to keep an album with a creepy cover such as that? i mean, that's like inviting Freddy Krueger or the Candyman to take up residence in your home. who would even dare pop the disc in a player? weird weird weird!

aaahhh too freaky ...
i love the jacket he is wearing and his makeup gonna give me nightmares :O|

Reminds me of Duran Duran's Rio album cover art.

for some reason, I'd like a little more gray on him...like, holy.., another white mashed up, he'll end up being the background colour o__o..maybe the hair can be a little messy with some grays here and there..or he can wear a gray suit and have his hair white but still have a human skin tone...but uh, guessing that's not the point of this cover?...still liking the eyeshadow (panda LJK :D)..but not getting the pink lipstick >_>../end rant.

but oh yeah, this definitely stands out XD!

Concept: Albino Bowie?

Albino elf definitely. wtf.

Huh.

Whether you love or hate this, you've gotta hand it to him: he sure knows how to make people talk about him. And *that* is genius, imho. It's all free advertasing. I'm all very meh about the concept and the make up (and I don't actually care for his singing. Like at all), but as long as he's happy...

i love lee junki, but this album cover is just too... odd for my taste. i guess most of his fans would be going gaga over these photos/album cover but not me. there's something about it that just makes me feel that maybe even his album's not for me coz isn't the album cover supposed to convey the theme or the message of the album? so if i'm seeing an angel nightmare... seriously junki's good at acting, but i don't care about his singing. BUT i'm still a fan weird makeup and all.

I dunno what to make of it... Its like visual kei meets albino gothic meets manga...

Seriously...

Those pictures look airbrushed. That's not real makeup.

immediate first reaction was "wtf..." but after staring at it for awhile I'm starting to dig it. :S

@70- Since I like visual kei, gothic, albino-ish stuff, and manga...

I like this look. xD It's cool. Interesting. And I've always been a fan of dark eyes. (Never on such a white FACE and hair before, but...lol.)

And I really like his snow-white hair. Just saying. And he still manages to look pretty cute doing it. I especially love the bigger shot of him, and the first of the 1st 4-set and last of the 2nd 4-set.

So there's something for every taste. lol.

can i say this?

if i buy this album, i would prolly need to hide it. just in case it scares my parents. which it prolly will.

My first thought was, "Did I accidentally travel to the wrong blog?" Then I saw that it was supposed to be LJK, did a double-take, and mildly freaked out.

Oh Junki.. You're a bundle of crack and WTF-ness. Don't get me wrong, I love the guy.. I think he's very sweet and funny off-set, but he's still weird. A pretty decent singer, but still weird. This just solidifies that opinion.

As an album cover, it weirds me out a little. But as an attention-getting advertisement, I'm all for it. (I actually really love the upper-body shot. He looks cool.) Although it did help a lot to turn down the brightness on my laptop, so now he's more gray-ish than BLINDINGLY WHITE-TASTIC.

Honestly, though, his wide eyes in the first pictures kind of scare me. :x

This Style remembered me David Bowie in the 70's

first thought: HE LOOKS LIKE A GIRL!!!

guess i'm just not a fan!

What is he thinking?
Why is he doing this?
What is this suppose to be?

I like it and hate it at the same time. The concept is great but the overall design is faulty -- not horrible, just glitchy. I don't get how this ties with the teaser video but since things haven't been revealed, I figure it ties together somewhere (at least it should.) Also the selection of the photos is a little tame (if you're gonna go with head shots, one should make sure they all stand out yet somehow tie together rather than have them all look too similar, imho.)

I love the whole white concept and praise LJK for having the guts to do something way different and more artsy...but I think that some slight changes would've made this beyond incredible.

PS. I would've loved to have been the make-up artist that day >w< If only, if only.

I like Lee Jun Ki but the album cover is horrible. Way too freaky!

interesting..
first of all, I actually just saw a bit of his getting-ready-to-shoot those MVs and I did not see that scary albino crack addict look whatsoever..
he dances really well - it looked to me that he put lots of effort into following the dance coach - and the MVs looked captivating but with a strong 'sexy' vibe
**the women are all over him in them
but yes.. maybe the look is all for publicity and to stir up interest?

well at least its really really different than most kpop artists out there.

he looks so feminine - should've been a geisha for his album cover lolol. jk

2 words for this: DAVID BOWIE.
lmao.

Reminds me of a)Bride with White Hair and b)Yeti.

I don't really get Lee Junki, as an actor or singer. He's got legions of fans, but I guess I don't see where his charm is. He seems really awesome in real life, from the behind the scene videos I've seen, but I dunno...

i actually think this is a pretty good cover....its not the traditional style...its out of the ordinary but i think that is what makes it SOOOOOOO COOL!
weird stuff, in my opinion, is all the better...why have to put out a cover to please people...Im glad Lee Junki puts out what he likes regardless :)

I would not want to have that in my room with my other cd's. It actually made me shiver.

i m a huge fan of lee jun ki, and dying to watch his next project, i hate to admit it , this pic sucks big time, though his eye look little bigger... but i love his chinky eye, it's so damn engaging..filled with emotions.. ....... so enhancement pic lee junki..be it a crazy make up or whateve..

i think this make-up is artistically normal, some people are just exaggerating...good luck with his new album

ROFLMBO at you guys' comments!!!

Nice to see I'm not the only one whose first thought was "Where's the Spiders of Mars?!"

:~D

Not a new concept, but definitely one that get's people talking, which is what it's all about these days.

Will LJK be Korea's Madonna?

I actually find this appealing. But then again, I find everything he does appealing.

lee junki almost blends with the background

they should have given him a black background. he would stand out more.

um...whoa

Yes yes, they should have give him a different background, it's too white >.<

& um.. when I first saw the cover I kinda went "WHOA!! HOLY COW." lol. Creative but um.. a bit freaky for my taste. Still love the guy though so yeah (:

what the hell... who does he think he is?

biased as i may be i think its actually very creative and eye catching look.
initially i was like eh???? w..t.. but at a second look i rather .. well like isn't really the world

i am intrigued.... very intrigued....

i like how it doesn't look like him in a way. Like we are supposed to take a different view of him and rethink what we like and don't like about his looks. Makes us think and i like that :)

tehehe, for some reason I'm thinking of the ever famous androgynous being Boy George.

but, meh. Someone already mentioned this but if the pictures were done right, it would've been a bold visual-kei effect. Instead, it just looks like someone had fun with make-up and decided to take a picture of themselves...

psst- I don't know if anyone here is familiar with Super Junior but... doesn't he kind of look like Kibum in those pictures?
cute but nice try.

@ 25, 33, 48 : LADY GAGA!!!! LOL!!! i SOOOO AGREEE!!!!

I LOVE LEE JUN KI, ACTUALLY, I ESPECIALLY LOVE HIM IN A TIME BETWEEN DOG AND WOLF.... BUT THESE PHOTOS.....

IT'S NOT CREEPY.... IT'S SOOO GAY-ish!!! IT MAKES ME FORGET HOW MANLY HE IS IN A TIME BETWEEN DOG AND WOLF.
THANK GOODNESS, IT'S JUST PHOTOS WITH AN OLD,BORING CONCEPT.... NEEDS MORE CREATIVE THINKING....

LADY GAGA!!! LOL!!! YOU GUYS ARE FUNNY!

@76 & 83

David Bowie LJK is not. A better contender (note I'm not saying worthier) is Adam Lambert from this season's American Idol.

@99

Agree! If the hair had been tended to as meticolously as the eye make-up, this could've been a winner! As is, it's intriguing but indulgent.
