JYJ (Kim Jaejoong, Park Yoochun, Kim Junsu) have proven their everlasting popularity by topping the album sales charts for two consecutive weeks.

According to Hanteo Charts, JYJ’s second full-length album ‘JUST US’ has sold a total of 28,840 copies from the 4th till the 10th of August, making it the most-sold album of the week.

After being released offline on the 29th, the album sold 32,788 copies in its first week and topped the charts, making this its second consecutive week in the top position.

The group also proved their popularity overseas when their album ranked second place on the Oricon weekly charts and 4th on Billboard’s world album charts. These achievements have been highlighted by the industry because they were achieved by an album with Korean lyrics rather than an album tailored to these overseas markets.

This is JYJ’s first album in three years since their release of ‘In Heaven’ in 2011. Their title track ‘Back Seat’ is an urban R&B track with emotional lyrics and a mystical atmosphere. It topped the music charts as soon as it was released online.

Meanwhile, the second week of August (4th~10th of August) reflected the recent trend of male idol domination. Block B’s ‘Her’ sold 14,838 copies and came in at second place. B1A4’s ‘Solo Day’ came in at third with 6,768 copies sold, and Infinite’s ‘Back’ came in at fourth place with 2,114 copies sold.

JYJ’s Kim Jae Joong is set to release a repackaged version of his first solo album.

C-JES Entertainment said, “Kim Jae Joong will be releasing his repackaged album on January 20th, after making a successful transformation as a rock singer through his first solo album. His repackaged album will include a new song as well as a remake of the Japanese song ‘Makeup’ which earned much popularity when he performed it during his Asia tour.”

 

The repackaged album theme is set as ‘make-up removal’ as C-JES revealed, “The two new songs are meant to convey the painful feelings that one has when he/she wants to forget their loved one. We got the inspiration from ‘Makeup’ and decided to name it as ‘make-up removal’. From the songs, fans can listen to the various styles of conflicting emotions that Jae Joong’s voice will bring out.”

 

The album will also include unreleased footage from the music video of ‘Just Another Girl’ as well as footage of the music video production shoots

C-JES said, “Jae Joong has already completed the recording of the new songs for the album. The new songs are pop ballads that’s really suitable for the winter season, and the lyrics were penned by Jae Joong himself. ‘Makeup’ is a remake of a Japanese song of the same name, with Jae Joong writing the new lyrics. Jae Joong’s sensual vocals and manner of singing it, will definitely be a surprise to fans when they listen to it.”

 

Jae Joong has thus far enjoyed much success in his solo activities, and he was 4th in the ‘2013 Singer Award’ chart that was tabulated by Hanteo, and the only soloist that made it to the top 5.

 

Jae Joong released his first mini album ‘I’ in January 2013, before following up in October with the release of his 1st full-length album ‘WWW: Who, When, Why’. The album soon shot up music charts in Japan, Singapore, and Hong Kong, as well as Japan’s Tower Record. It was also ranked 4th on Japan’s Oricon Weekly chart as well as becoming the most popular K-POP song on China’s CCTV3 for three consecutive weeks. The album also topped Hanteo real-time, daily, and week charts, and was first on a Synnara Record poll as the most likely to win at the year-end music festivals.

 

Meanwhile, Jae Joong will continue with his nation-wide tour in Gwangju on January 11th.

TRANS] 130122 ‘As Expected From TVXQ’ – The First Overseas Artistes To Have 12 Oricon Chart Topping Singles

TVXQ have become the first overseas artistes to have 12 singles top the Oricon charts in Japan.

On the 22nd, TVXQ’s agency stated, “TVXQ’s new single ‘Catch Me-If you wanna-’, which was released on the 16th, topped the daily Oricon singles charts as soon as it was released. It topped the weekly charts as well, making it their 12th single to top the Oricon weekly singles charts.”

TVXQ’s success has broken their own record for the most singles topping the Oricon weekly charts as overseas artistes. This is their 28th single to enter the TOP 10 of the weekly single charts since their 7th single ‘SKY’ in August, 2006, breaking the record for the most #1 singles and the most singles in the TOP 10 of the weekly singles charts released by overseas artistes. Their latest single contains the Japanese version of ‘Catch Me’, the title song of TVXQ’s 6th Korean album last September. ‘Catch Me’ topped various music charts in Korea, Thailand, Taiwan and Japan.

Oricon’s official homepage posted an article with the title, “TVXQ score their 12th chart-topping single! Breaking the record for ‘the most #1 singles’ for overseas singers”.

Meanwhile, TVXQ will be releasing their new Japanese album ‘TIME’ on the 6th of March and will begin their Dome Tour (Tokyo Dome, Oksaka Kyocera Dome, Fukuoka Yahoo!Japan Dome, Sapporo Dome, Nagoya Dome) on the 27th of April with their Saitama Super Arena performance.

[TRANS] 120315 Tohoshinki’s New Single Achieves Number 1 On The Oricon Charts

 Tohoshinki’s new single achieved number 1 on the Oricon charts once it was released.

According to the Oricon charts on 15 March, Tohoshinki’s new single “Still”, released on 14 March, achieved number 1 on the Oricon daily single chart.

This song forgoes what can be said to be Tohoshinki’s best weapon, their powerful performances, and is instead an emotional medium-tempo ballad. In addition, “One More Thing”, which is also recorded in the single, has been chosen as the theme song for Bee TV’s drama “Let M”.

On another note, Tohoshinki is currently holding their nation-wide tour, which began in Yokohama Arena on 18 January, and will be held at 11 other areas across Japan. This concert has been well-received, and will attract approximately 550,000 local fans.
