An album cover of a Cpop singer inspired by Ayu?

Okay, I don't mean to start any speculation or anything but I just thought this was an interesting find.

I was flipping through a local HK magazine and saw an ad for a HK singer, Joey Yung's new album. She's actually one of the biggest and most successful pop singers here.

Her new album is titled 'Very busy' in Chinese.

And this is the cover:
Spoiler:


Okay, so when I saw it, I immediately thought of Ayu's A BEST -white- booklet scans.

EDIT: It is suggested that A BEST -black- is the better comparison, so it's been added.

Spoiler:




Well, slight resemblance? No resemblance? XDD

Just a thought, I guess.

Its a bit of a stretch. Like multiple mirrors is pretty common, but it may be.

Ami Suzuki's DOLCE also had mirrors as well, as well as BoA's My Name MV. It's a common style, so yeah. XD

I don't really see much similarities, except mirrors... But, her hair reminds me of A BEST 2 -BLACK-. A little bit.

It kind of reminds me of A BEST 2 -BLACK- but not too much, just the hair and the mirror effect.

The mirrors are common but her hair, clothes and expression is very similar. The general aura resembles Ayu's session.

Koich had the whole album based on mirror concept in 2006, both in album booklet and concert stage performances.

I think it looks more like A Best 2 -BLACK- but other than that only the concept is the same. Who knows, maybe Joey did get the idea from her. Oh how I miss HK and her broadway cms. haha

oh I didn't know Joey wld have such a cover. But I wld really thought of A BEST 2 -BLACK- too. The mirrors and the outfit. maybe she's inspired by Ayu. Maybe I'll thought so too.
