Tower Records Japan recently just released their 2011 Bestseller list for the first half of the year and…..
surprise, surprise (or maybe not !), our 9 ladies top the sales list for the Album category with their debut 1st Japanese album “Girls’ Generation”.
To add to the celebrations, fellow labelmates, SHINee, managed to top the list for the best selling Singles category for the first half of 2011.
Not to be outdone, though, the ladies’ hit single “Mr. Taxi/Run Devil Run” managed to clinch the 4th spot in the aforementioned list.
All I can say is, “Well Done, Ladies and Gentlemen of SME !”

SNSD fighting!!

congrats!
congrats to the girls! and to the other k-pop groups as well!
i think it should be pointed out, though, that these are the K-Pop charts, not the overall charts.
Good job! ^^
Don’t hate me, but it’s kinda weird that only korean singers are in that list. Specially the ‘singles list’, AKB48 sold around 1,5million with their single, way beyond Shinee and they’re not even on the list (sorry shinee fans, please don’t hate >.<).
That's why I think it may only be related to korean music. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
wonderful SNSD fighting
FOREVER SNSD!!!!! CONGRATS GIRLS!!!!
wish the single category no. 4 rose up in the no. 1
