One doll named “Yeon” comes in a choice of an ‘antique’ or a ‘gothic’ look. The other. “Keith” comes in either a ‘rose’ or a ‘shining’ faceup.
LeekeWorld Price Decrease
LeekWorld posted a notice on their website that as of the 6th of October the prices on the site would be lowered. The price adjustment was due of the shift in value of Korean to American currency.
