[TRANS] 020710 Tohoshinki - Stabil #1 di Peringkat Oricon

Even though the group’s activities have been suspended, Tohoshinki’s potential is still amazing.

On the 30th of last month, Tohoshinki’s new albums ” Single B-Side Collection” and “Single A-Side Collection” respectively achieved #1 and #2 on the Oricon charts the day they were officially released.

The next day on July 1, “Single A-Side Collection” claimed #1 and “Single B-Side Collection” held #2 position, both gaining immense popularity.

Although the albums aren’t regular records, they still include all of Tohoshinki’s singles that were released in Japan, which increases the value as a collectible and causes a massive inclination of sales.

Tohoshinki’s total album sales for the top half of the year holds third place overall.

Recently, the 3 Tohoshinki members Xiah Junsu, Hero Jejung, and Micky Yuchun, that are involved in a lawsuit over their contract with SM Entertainment, are recording in America with Asia as their main target. Respectively, U-Know Yunho and Max Changmin are currently involved in the musical “Goong” and the television drama “Paradise Meadow”.

Meskipun kegiatan grup sedang dihentikan sementara, kekuatan Tohoshinki masih mengagumkan.

Pada tanggal 30 bulan lalu, album baru Tohoshinki "Single B-Side Collection" dan "Single A-Collection" berturut-turut mencapai #1 dan #2 pada peringkat Oricon pada hari dimana mereka dirilis.

Di hari selanjutnya, tanggal 1 Juli, "Single A-Side Collection" mengklaim #1 dan "Single B-Side Collection" memegang posisi #2, keduanya memperoleh popularitas yang besar.

Meskipun album tersebut bukan album rekaman yang biasanya, mereka tetap memuat seluruh single Tohoshinki yang dirilis di Jepang, yang menaikan keuntungan sebagai sesuatu yng harus dipunyai dan menyebabkan penjualan yang cenderung besar-besaran.

Penjualan album Tohoshinki pada pertengahan awal tahun ini menduduki peringkat ketiga secara keseluruhan.

Saat ini, 3 anggota Tohoshinki Xiah Junsu, Hero Jejung, dan Micky Yoochun, yang sedang terlibat perkara hukum tentang kontrak mereka dengan SM Entertainment, sedang melakukan rekaman di Amerika dengan Asia sebagai target utamanya. Secara berturut-turut, U-Know Yunho dan Max Changmin saat ini sedang terlibat dalam pertunjukan musikal "Goong" dan drama televisi "Paradise Meadow".
