Midweek Release Roundup (Jun 5-12)

[hitokage]

Welcome to another Wednesday! It's been another fairly busy week, with YouTube starting to offer suggestions beyond the usual idol groups, OSTs, and trot. In fact, there's no trot this week, but there is jazz piano! Plus an emotional anniversary release from Kim Jaejoong, several OSTs, some supplemental releases from DXMON, RM, W24, and AKMU, Japanese releases from NCT Dream and AB6IX, and the final release of Weki Meki.

Quick asides: when it comes to content warnings, I'm mostly checking for the big ones (photosensitivity/seizure/seasickness, violent content, clowns), but if you'd like me to be warning for something else, I'm happy to add to my notes - you can leave a comment anywhere, but the sticky entry has screening on if you want to stay unknown. Also, my flashing threshold tends to be pretty low - a couple quick camera flashes are enough to trip the cw, for example - but I also make additional notes where appropriate.

Banner artist this week is It's with a pupper of unknown name because I'm a hopeless case for a cutie with a cutie. Look at that face and tell me you could have said no. XD Additional picks go to my Jae-bunny, Yohan Kim, WayV, and of course a last salute to Weki Meki (who deserved better than fantagio gave them). What are your favorites this week? Anyone surprise you? Let's chat about it!

( Releases for the week of June 5-12 )

++ I'm aware that anything released in the 12-18 hrs before these posts go up probably isn't in the list - between time zones and Life, my lists compile nightly, usually cutting off around 1am, which means we get some Wednesday releases the same day and some in the following week's list.++
💫 quick drama note: Most of the dramas that put out OST tracks this week are on the violent side. I have more specific notes attached to each track, but just as a general warning....
