It was announced on November 11th that Girls’ Generation would be releasing their first official Japanese photobook titled “Holiday”.
Also included in the announcement was a small preview about the photobook, “As their treasured ‘Holiday’ arrives, it is packed with the member’s wide smiles. From party fashion to casual style, it is distinctly different from the usual classic style clothes; it’s full of casual fashion with a touch of pop.”
The photobook can be purchased via CDJapan -here-, and at YesAsia -here-
If that isn’t enough for fans, the first Japanese concert tour will also be available on blu-ray/DVD, which goes on sale December 14th. Included in the email to the fansite was a description of the different versions of the blu-ray and DVD sets which comes in both “Limited Edition” and “Regular” versions.
The Limited Edition set comes with special footage, photobook, as well as a pin badge set. Both the DVD and Blu-ray versions of the Limited Edition set will contain the special footage, while the photobook will differ. It will contain cuts from the limited item “Girls’ Generation’s First Japan Tour Memorial Book”. The pin badge is a set of 10 pins and comes in a cosmetic case; the pins are gold for the blu-ray and silver for the dvd. The limited editions will come in a special caramel box packed with a digipak (fold out case) for the disk case, photobook and the special cosmetic case holding the pin badge set.

Japanese goods are so expensive. I have to skip on the DVD. The cheapest version already cost more than AAGG… Hope SM will make a DVD for the Korean concert and include the solo perfs in it.
I can’t get the photobook too :((( Sad.
Just bought the DVD Limited Edition ^^
The BlueRay Limited Edition is sold out though, and there are only 2 more left of the DVD Limited O_O
Gonna be walking with an empty wallet for a while XD But it’s totally worth it. Wonder why it’s so high priced tho!
Have the Blu-ray version All Region? or only region code “A”?
the blu ray is region 0. yes.. alll region.
want the DVD and blue ray L.E
aaaaaaaaa can’t wait
when is the pre-order?? ^_^
Now LOL, the limited edition bluy-ray is out of stock right now :3
I hope there is a Korean release, because then it would be cheaper.
i really need to save a lot to buy this..ah i want so bad..
i want it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!more than anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Already pre-ordered the limited edition blu-ray.
the total lack of funds, plus the fact that Japanese goods costs much more than the Korean pressing, has tasked me with a sad task of putting the DVD and photobook to my Christmas wish-list ):
pure death in our wallets….
I keep wondering why they sell it so expensive..
but oh well…a soshi fan is always a soshi fan!
soooo expensive T.T will it be available through out the world?
why Japan is so lucky? They get most of SoShi’s concerts and fan signing.
not really sure if i can afford it but i really want it ahhh
my wallet is screaming in pain T_T
but i will get the dvd version anyway *_*
ahaha…looking forward for it!!!
No solo’s? =( I wonder if there is a possibility of another Seoul concert DVD with the solo’s?
that has been the big talk of why it’s not included. I’m guessing that later SM will release a concert DVD from their 2nd Asia Tour which then will include their solo performances. hehe.
Will there be subtitles! If there is im soo gettin it but if it doesnt i dnt even care still buyin it haha
Ooooooooooooooh snap! CD Japan has them listed. Go SONEs go!
HI :O I’m a new soshi :D and will the site u put on to buy the dvd be legit :O?
OMG! The pre-order for the ‘Holiday’ photobook is already sold out!!! DDD”””:
I hope they’ll have more after the release date… )”’:
Oh gosh, I’m about to faint from the prices. (Unless the yen to USD converter is lying to me.)
So the photobook is just photos taken at their concert, right? And they differ if you buy Blu-Ray or DVD?
Well, I’ll still keep an eye out for this because I reallllllyyyyy want it. (Although I’m broke. T_T)
More Soshi goodies!
Santa! I want this for Christmas! XD
anyone know why does the Japanese products are always more expensice than Korean products?
I hope that it comes with English Subtitles so I can hear the introductions and understand what they are saying. Of course I also hope I can buy it in the US.
Funny though – it took 3 years for SM to come out with the First Concert DVD and 6 months for the Japanese one. Lmao! Well either way – I hope I can buy it! I’d love to see those performances!!
I agree. I just purchased the ITNW First Asia Tour DVD’s. I suppose SM realizes the ever increasing fan base worldwide so they rushed this one.
But I’m glad to be broke for GG.
Will the limited edition be limited stock?
I can’t wait!! >.<
Looking forward to the Bluray version. :)
