Although it's not a common practice, it's not unusual for an artist to release a mini-album and then put the majority of the songs from it on a full album (2NE1 (Japanese release) and OLIVIA have done it). As Zeke said, she hasn't been following her usual formula lately (no physical singles released prior to "Party Queen" and releasing mini-albums in single format) so there's no telling what she'll do with the little information we have. While some feel that she would have included information with this announcement that the songs would be on the album, it wouldn't make much sense for her to do so as she is currently promoting "again" since it is her latest release that's out right now. No one would buy it if people knew that the songs would end up on her full album right now so it would be smart on their end not to announce the songs this early. Although I'm not saying that the songs will definitely be on the album, it's not completely out of the realm of possibility. I would prefer it as I have not purchased "LOVE" and "again" just in case she pulled this stunt but the possibility that all the songs could be brand new is just as likely so I'll patiently be awaiting the release of the tracklisting information before I make a decision to buy the mini-albums.
