SEVENTEEN's Jeonghan and Joshua debut as the unit JxJ on October 19, and Makestar is running its own pre-order gift event alongside the release. The window closes at 23:59 KST on October 18 — and so does the last chance to cancel an order.
What Is the JxJ Makestar DREAMSCAPE Giveaway?
The JxJ Makestar giveaway is a retailer-exclusive pre-order benefit event attached to JEONGHAN X JOSHUA's 1st mini album 'DREAMSCAPE,' listed on Makestar as the "JEONGHANXJOSHUA (SEVENTEEN) 1st Mini Album 'DREAMSCAPE' SPECIAL GIVEAWAY EVENT." It runs from 2026.09.23 (Wed) 11:00 to 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59 KST, and any pre-order paid inside that window qualifies automatically — there is no separate application form, no entry code and no draw to enter (source: Makestar, 2026-09).
Quick Answer: Makestar's JxJ 'DREAMSCAPE' giveaway gives a free photocard or mini photo print with every pre-order placed between 2026.09.23 11:00 and 2026.10.18 23:59 KST. No entry step is required. After that cutoff, orders cannot be cancelled or refunded, and the album ships from its 2026.10.19 release.
The gift is issued per album, not per order. Makestar's listing states the benefit is "1 provided per album," so buying two copies yields two gifts, and the page sets no stated purchase ceiling. What you receive depends on which version you buy — the Daydreamers and Dreamchasers versions carry a selfie photocard, while Dream Record Ver. carries a mini photo print. The full breakdown is covered in the next section.
Two dates matter more than the rest. The first is the cancellation cutoff: Makestar states that "cancellations are only possible for requests submitted by 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59," and that any request after that point is not eligible for cancellation or refund. Cancelling before the cutoff also removes you from the event entirely. The second is the release itself — PLEDIS Entertainment's notice puts 'DREAMSCAPE' out on Monday, 2026.10.19 at 6 p.m. KST, with pre-orders having opened at 11 a.m. KST on September 23 (source: PLEDIS notice via PTKorea, 2026-09).
One point of scope: this benefit belongs to Makestar alone. PLEDIS lists seven official pre-order platforms for the album , each running its own gift, so a Weverse Shop or YES24 order will not produce the Makestar photocard (source: PLEDIS notice via PTKorea, 2026-09).
Gift Breakdown by Album Version
The Makestar giveaway is tiered: what you receive depends on which version of 'DREAMSCAPE' you buy and whether you buy one copy or a two-album set. A single Daydreamers Ver. or Dreamchasers Ver. album earns 1 selfie photocard, drawn at random from 3 types; the 2-album set earns all 3 selfie photocards as one complete set, with no randomness involved . Dream Record Ver. and Weverse Albums Ver. carry entirely different gifts.
Two details are worth reading carefully before checkout. First, the set tier is the only way to guarantee the full photocard lineup — Makestar's own wording is "3 selfie photocards (1 SET)" for the 2-album option versus "1 random out of 3 types" for the single . Second, the Dream Record Ver. gift is a mini printed photo rather than a photocard: 1 individual mini photo print, random 1 of 2 types, provided at 1 per album . Because it is a per-album draw rather than a bundled set, ordering two Dream Record copies does not guarantee both types.
The Weverse Albums Ver. sits in its own tier. Buyers there receive 1 group-wide Polaroid-style photocard plus 1 logo stamp, with the stamp listed as "1 provided per album, 1 type in total" — meaning there is nothing random about the stamp, and a second copy yields a duplicate .
| Version / quantity | Makestar gift | Random? | Listed price (KRW) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daydreamers or Dreamchasers Ver., 1 album | 1 selfie photocard | Yes — 1 of 3 types | ₩20,800 |
| Daydreamers / Dreamchasers Ver., 2-album SET | 3 selfie photocards (1 SET) | No — full set | ₩41,600 |
| Dream Record Ver., 1 album | 1 individual mini photo print | Yes — 1 of 2 types | ₩16,300 |
| Weverse Albums Ver., 1 album | 1 group-wide Polaroid-style photocard + 1 logo stamp | No — stamp is 1 type total | ₩11,600 |
All four prices above are the figures shown on the Makestar product listing as of 2026-09-24 . On a per-gift basis the maths is straightforward: the set tier costs exactly twice the single (₩41,600 against ₩20,800) and removes the draw entirely, so fans who specifically want all three selfie photocards without trading are paying a predictable premium rather than gambling twice .
One naming quirk trips up international buyers. Resellers that import the Makestar-benefit stock relabel the tiers in English storefront language — the single Daydreamers/Dreamchasers option appears as "Standard Random" and the 2-album option as "Standard Set", while the underlying gift structure is copied from Makestar's wording verbatim . If you are comparing listings across sites, match on the gift description — "1 random out of 3 types" versus "3 photocards, 1 SET" — rather than on the tier name, which is not standardised.
For orientation on the retail versions themselves: distributor listings confirm separate retail codes for DREAMSCAPE's Dream Record Ver. (PLD0952), Weverse Albums Ver. (PLD0953), Random edition (PLD0951) and KiT Ver. (PLD0954) . The Makestar giveaway page's four gift tiers cover the Daydreamers, Dreamchasers, Dream Record and Weverse Albums purchase options; a KiT Ver. order is not part of the four gift tiers described above .
Who Are JEONGHAN X JOSHUA, and What Is 'DREAMSCAPE'?
JEONGHAN X JOSHUA — stylised JxJ — is a two-member sub-unit of SEVENTEEN formed by vocal-line members Jeonghan and Joshua, announced by PLEDIS Entertainment on 2026-09-23 KST, the same day pre-orders for their 1st mini album opened . 'DREAMSCAPE' releases 2026-10-19 at 6 PM KST, with the pre-order window having opened 2026-09-23 at 11 AM KST . That October 19 release date sits one day after the Makestar pre-order and cancellation cut-off, which is why the giveaway timeline and the album timeline do not overlap.
JxJ is the seventh officially debuted sub-unit in SEVENTEEN's discography. The sequence, per coverage of the announcement, runs as follows :
- BSS (2018) — Seungkwan, DK, Hoshi
- Wonwoo X Mingyu (2021)
- Jeonghan X Wonwoo (2024)
- Hoshi X Woozi (2025)
- S.Coups X Mingyu (2025)
- DK X Seungkwan (2026)
- V8 — Vernon X The8 (2026)
Note that this is Jeonghan's second unit release, following Jeonghan X Wonwoo in 2024 , and Joshua's first.
On the concept, PLEDIS glossed the title 'DREAMSCAPE' as "a landscape of dreams," and framed the record around two senses of dreaming held side by side: the unconscious fantasy that arrives during sleep, and the ideals a person pursues while awake — dimensions the agency described as endlessly intertwining and colliding . The agency statement, as carried in English-language coverage, put it this way:
"Jeonghan and Joshua become dreamers, offering an audio-visual rapture through the unfamiliar beauty," — PLEDIS Entertainment announcement statement (source: The Korea Times, 2026-09)
What is not yet public matters for anyone deciding how many copies to order before the October 18 cut-off. As of 2026-09-24, no tracklist, title track name, or credits list has been revealed. What SEVENTEEN's official channels did post at 00:00 KST on September 24 is a promotion scheduler image, which sets out 'Meet JxJ Diary' on September 25 and 'Daydreamers' and 'Dreamchasers' content on September 28 and 29 respectively . In practical terms, the concept photos that distinguish the Daydreamers and Dreamchasers editions land roughly three weeks before the Makestar deadline — so fans who want to see the versions before committing to a single album or the 2-album set still have room to wait.
Where to Buy and How Makestar Compares to Other Retailers
Makestar is one of seven official pre-order platforms for 'DREAMSCAPE', not the only route to the album. PLEDIS Entertainment's release notice lists Weverse Shop, YES24, Aladin, MAKESTAR, applemusic, EVERLINE and fanplee as the authorised pre-order channels . Each of those stores runs its own pre-order benefit, so the selfie photocards and mini photo print described on Makestar's listing apply only to orders placed at Makestar . Buying the same version elsewhere gets you the album and that retailer's gift, not this one.
Price is the other axis of comparison. On Makestar, the Dream Record Ver. is listed at ₩16,300, the Weverse Albums Ver. at ₩11,600, a single Daydreamers or Dreamchasers album at ₩20,800 and the 2-album set at ₩41,600 . For comparison, an international distributor lists the Dream Record Ver. at USD 9.71 , with separate retail codes for the Random (PLD0951), Weverse Albums (PLD0953) and KiT (PLD0954) editions listed alongside it . Makestar states that sales through the project are reflected 100% in Hanteo Chart, Circle Chart and Music Bank tallies, both online and offline — chart eligibility follows the Korean-version sale, which is the reason many international buyers route through a Korean storefront rather than a local import shop.
A separate Weverse-side event has circulated alongside the Makestar giveaway, and the two should not be confused. Reports describe a "SPECIAL FAN PARTY" application tied to the [FAN PARTY] edition on Weverse Global, running the same 2026-09-23 11:00 to 2026-10-18 23:59 KST window, with 500 winners announced after 2026-10-19 20:00 KST and a random selfie photocard for every entrant. That event could not be verified against a first-party Weverse notice page at the time of writing — Weverse notice pages sit behind a login — so treat the details as unconfirmed and check the Weverse Shop listing directly before ordering with the fan party draw in mind. It is a different retailer, a different entry mechanism and a different prize from the Makestar photocards.
One discrepancy is worth flagging for anyone shopping through third-party sites. Reseller listings reproduce Makestar's benefit wording verbatim while describing their own allocation of the Makestar gift as limited and first-come, first-served . Makestar's own page sets no purchase cap and ties eligibility to ordering inside the sales window rather than to a stock count . The scarcity framing therefore describes the reseller's inventory, not the giveaway itself — ordering direct removes that variable entirely.
Cancellation Deadline, Refund Policy and Shipping Timeline
The cancellation deadline for the Makestar giveaway is the same moment the event closes: 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59 KST . Makestar's page states that "cancellations are only possible for requests submitted by 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59," and that "any requests received thereafter will not be eligible for cancellation or refund" . After that timestamp the order is locked — the album, the payment and the version-specific gift attached to it are all final. Buyers weighing a version change should decide before the window shuts rather than after.
The second half of that clause matters just as much for anyone considering a partial cancellation. Makestar writes: "Please note that you will be excluded from the event if you cancel your purchase" . Cancelling does not simply reverse the album order and leave the giveaway entitlement intact — it removes the buyer from the event outright. For the 2-album Daydreamers/Dreamchasers SET at ₩41,600, which carries the complete 3-photocard set rather than a random draw, that means dropping one album from the order is not a way to keep a reduced benefit .
Shipping runs on Makestar's standard pre-order benefit model, which is why nothing ships the moment you pay. Production of the exclusive benefit begins only after the sales window closes and final quantities are fixed, and Makestar states that production "typically takes 1–2 weeks" . Counting from the 2026-10-18 close, that places gift production across late October, after the album's own release on 2026-10-19 at 6 PM KST . International delivery time is then added on top of that production period, and varies by destination and courier.
Post-delivery remedies are time-boxed too. Makestar reviews "requests for additional shipment or exchange … only if submitted to Customer Support within 7 days of the delivery date," with unboxing documentation required . In practice that means filming the parcel opening before cutting the tape, keeping the outer packaging, and contacting support inside the week — a claim raised on day eight has no path through the stated policy. The full terms sit on the Makestar product page, which remains the only authoritative text for this event.
Ordering Tips and Reseller Caveats for International Fans
International fans buying JxJ's 'DREAMSCAPE' through a reseller rather than Makestar directly face a different set of rules, and the Makestar-exclusive gift can be voided by how the order is assembled. Reseller listings that carry the Makestar benefit state the gift applies only when the album is ordered on its own — bundling it with other products in the same order cancels eligibility . The safest approach is one album, one order, nothing else in the cart.
Timelines are the second place orders go wrong. The printed giveaway items are produced only after the sales window closes on 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59 KST, and Makestar states production "typically takes 1–2 weeks" . Reseller listings apply a comparable buffer, noting that lucky-draw printed items need a minimum of seven business days before they ship, counted separately from the album's own dispatch . Expect the gift and the album to arrive on different clocks, and in some cases in different parcels.
A related trap is the dispatch date shown on reseller product pages. Some listings display a date in early November 2026 — 2026-11-02 appears on at least one — and that figure is a restock or shipping date, not the release date. The album itself is out on Monday, October 19, 2026 at 6 PM KST . Reading the November figure as a delay against October 19 will produce a support ticket that has nowhere to go.
Damage claims follow the same documentation standard as Makestar's own policy: an unboxing video is required to file one, and it has to start before the outer packaging is opened. Reseller terms also flag that minor dust, light scratches and small print marks on photocards are treated as unavoidable production characteristics and are not compensated . Only missing or substantially damaged items realistically clear that bar.
The practical takeaway is narrow and date-bound: if you want the Makestar selfie photocards or the Dream Record mini photo print, the order has to be placed — and left uncancelled — by 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59 KST, on its own, with the unboxing camera ready when the box lands . Everything after that deadline is outside the event.
Frequently asked questions
When does the JxJ Makestar DREAMSCAPE giveaway end?
The entry window runs from 2026.09.23 (Wed) 11:00 KST to 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59 KST, exactly as stated on the Makestar product page . That same timestamp is the pre-order acceptance deadline, so an order placed after 23:59 on October 18 does not qualify for the giveaway at all. Orders placed inside the window also lose their cancellation right the moment it closes — the deadline cuts both ways. Makestar sets the cutoff in Korea Standard Time, so convert from your own timezone before assuming you still have a day left. See Makestar, 2026-09 for the listing.
What gift comes with the Dream Record Ver.?
Dream Record Ver. buyers receive 1 individual mini photo print, drawn at random from 2 types, with 1 provided per album . Because the draw is random rather than a fixed set, a single album cannot guarantee a specific type; ordering two copies in one order is the only way to raise the odds of covering both, and Makestar's wording does not promise duplicate avoidance in that case. Dream Record Ver. is listed at ₩16,300 . The guaranteed-full-set option applies only to the Daydreamers / Dreamchasers 2-album SET, which includes all 3 selfie photocards as one set.
Can I cancel my Makestar pre-order after Oct. 18?
No. Makestar states that "cancellations are only possible for requests submitted by 2026.10.18 (Sun) 23:59," and that "any requests received thereafter will not be eligible for cancellation or refund" . Cancelling before the deadline is permitted, but the same page notes that doing so removes the buyer from the event, so a cancelled order forfeits the giveaway item as well as the album. After delivery, the only remaining remedy is a request for additional shipment or exchange, reviewed only if submitted to Customer Support within 7 days of the delivery date .
Is Makestar the only place to get a DREAMSCAPE pre-order gift?
No. PLEDIS Entertainment's release notice lists seven official pre-order platforms — Weverse Shop, YES24, Aladin, MAKESTAR, applemusic, EVERLINE and fanplee — each running its own benefit . The selfie photocards and mini photo print described here are Makestar-exclusive and do not come with copies bought elsewhere. Reports also circulated of a separate Weverse-side FAN PARTY application event tied to its own edition, but that page could not be read first-party at the time of research, so treat it as unconfirmed rather than as part of the Makestar giveaway.
When does 'DREAMSCAPE' actually release?
JxJ's 1st mini album 'DREAMSCAPE' releases on Monday, 2026.10.19 at 6 p.m. KST, one day after the Makestar giveaway window closes . PLEDIS announced the unit — Jeonghan and Joshua of SEVENTEEN, the group's seventh officially debuted sub-unit — on 2026-09-23 KST, glossing the title as "a landscape of dreams" . Note that the release date is not the shipping date: Makestar produces the exclusive benefit only after the sales window closes, and states production "typically takes 1–2 weeks" . Additional unit context is available via Billboard, 2026-09 and Soompi, 2026-09.
