Described by the traders where I found the album as sounding like Everly Brothers, this is a rather special 60s psych-pop (mostly cover) album (sung in Korean), especially because of its happy, sunshine-esque and often humoristic (if not at times slightly grotesque) approach in the vocal harmonies, including the usual pompompoms. Also the lush orchestrations to it are really attractive. A few tracks have nice fuzz guitar. A worthy album to trace !
