Finally, the long wait is over. The result of the Oricon Weekly Chart is finally out and guess what?! The boys are number 1! Yay! They finally made history in Japan by being the first non-Japanese group to have reached the number 1 spot of the Oricon Weekly Chart three times. They obtained the highest sales among all those who released a single the past week. A big congratulations to the boys! I just knew they would be able to make it especially considering how beautiful their song “Why have I fallen in love with you” is. And take note, they haven’t done any official promotions for the single since they were in Korea during its release but still, they made it to the top spot! They’re just about to begin their promotions the coming days so I’m sure their single sales will still go up. This is another remarkable achievement for them and I’m sure their happiness is inexplicable as of the moment. Their many years of hardwork in Japan finally paid of. The Dong Bang boys are continuously breaking and making records both in Korea and Japan. I just hope they’ll make more history and break more records in the future, not only in Korea and Japan but in Asia as a whole.

DBSK/TVXQ/TOHOSHINKI, Fighting! :D

U-Know Yunho, fighting! :D

Choikang Changmin, fighting! :D

Youngwoong JaeJoong, fighting! :D

Micky Yoochun, fighting! :D

Xiah Junsu, fighting! :D

We, your fans, are so proud of you! =)

EDIT: Here’s the news from Oricon’s site. It’s in Japanese and nobody translated it yet but I just want to post a proof (although its not necessary, really). =)

Ok, mkalis12 at Soompi posted a translation so here it is:

The five member idol group Tohoshinki’s third single- Doumini coopere kimi wo suki ni natte shimatandarou- sold 68,000 copies in its first week. This is Tohoshinki’s third consecutive #1 single on the weekly charts, making them the first group to achieve this.
Tohoshinki’s singles- Purple Line (1/28) and Beautiful You (5/5) and lastly Doumini coopere kimi wo suki ni natte shimatandarou attained 1st place on the weekly charts. They are the first foreign group to achieve this feat. The last two groups who held the record were Ame no gyodo(?- sorry, not a native speaker) in 1971/72 and Ravisu Ova in 1984 whom each had two consecutive #1 weekly singles.
Tohoshinki, the male idol group, debuted in February 2004. The five members are Yunho, Jaejoong, Yoochun, Changmin, and Junsu. They debuted in Japan in April 2005 with their single, Stay with me Tonight.

  8. loveloveloveeeee says:

    eh? i thought dbsk debuted on December 26th, 2003…am i right or wrong?

  9. lovetohateme says:

    @ loveloveloveeeee: yeah, from what i know they debuted on the 26th of December 2003 during BoA and Britney’s show. maybe the ‘debut’ that the Oricon article was talking about was the official release of their first single HUG, which was in 2004. =)
