Why This Is Significant
Korean KISS pressings were produced in far smaller quantities than U.S., Japan, or European editions.
PROMO / SAMPLE copies were pressed in even smaller numbers for broadcast distribution.
Finding:
✔ Korean pressing
✔ PROMO Sample designation
✔ MBC broadcast sticker
✔ NM/NM condition
… all together is uncommon.
This is a high-end international KISS variant suitable for advanced collections.
