About this record
Katseye's SIS (Soft Is Strong) arrived in 2024 as a single-sided, etched 12-inch EP on HYBE UMG LLC and Geffen Records, catalogue 602465902150. The market snapshot shows 16 copies listed at 158.39 USD or higher, yet 315 collectors want it against 782 who own one—a demand-to-supply imbalance that keeps asking prices well above guide value.
The spread from Mint (125.64 USD) down to Poor (6.61 USD) reflects how sharply condition fractures the secondary market for this K-pop vinyl.
What drives its value
This 5-track EP commands a steep price curve driven by scarcity and K-pop collector demand. A Mint copy trades at 125.64 USD, while Near Mint drops to 112.41 USD and VG+ settles at 85.96 USD; the VG grade sits at 59.51 USD.
Current market listings at 158.39 USD exceed even the Mint guide price, signalling that the 16 copies in circulation cannot satisfy the 315 collectors actively seeking it. The single-sided, etched format and 2024 US pressing on Geffen Records position this as a limited collectible rather than a standard reissue.
Community ratings of 4.82 across 56 reviews confirm strong collector interest, reinforcing the premium over standard pop vinyl.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the barcode and catalogue number 602465902150 printed on the sleeve and label. The 12-inch, 33⅓ RPM format and single-sided, etched B-side are the physical markers; verify the Geffen Records imprint and HYBE UMG LLC co-credit on the label.
Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light for hairline scratches (Mint vs. Near Mint distinction) and the sleeve for creasing or seam separation. The etched side should show no wear to the grooves—any dulling or visible tracking marks drops the grade below VG+.
Check that all 5 tracks play without skips; surface noise audible at normal listening volume indicates VG or lower. The barcode presence confirms this is the standard commercial pressing, not a test or promo variant.

Frequently asked
What is the price range for this record in different conditions?
Mint copies are priced at 125.64 USD according to the price guide, Near Mint at 112.41 USD, and VG+ at 85.96 USD. A VG grade drops to 59.51 USD, while Good+ is 33.06 USD and Good is 19.84 USD. These are guide estimates; current market listings at 158.39 USD show active sellers pricing above the Mint threshold.
Why is this 2024 EP so expensive compared to standard pop vinyl?
K-pop collector demand outpaces supply: 315 want it but only 782 own one, and just 16 copies are currently for sale. The single-sided, etched format and limited pressing run on Geffen Records make it scarcer than typical pop releases. The community rating of 4.82 across 56 reviews reflects strong collector enthusiasm, which sustains the premium pricing.
How much is a VG+ copy worth?
The price guide values a VG+ copy at 85.96 USD. This represents a significant drop from the 112.41 USD Near Mint price, showing that even minor wear reduces value substantially on this title.
Is this a reissue or an original 2024 pressing?
This is the original 2024 US pressing on HYBE UMG LLC and Geffen Records, catalogue 602465902150. No prior editions are documented, making this the sole vinyl release of SIS (Soft Is Strong) to date.
What makes the etched B-side significant?
The etched single-sided format is uncommon for K-pop EPs and adds collectibility. Etched sides are prone to tracking noise if the stylus pressure is too high, so proper turntable setup is essential to preserve playback quality and resale value.
