Jang Geun Suk and SNSD top Oricon daily singles chart

Kpop artists are proving to be a strong force in the Japanese music market. Jang Geun Suk and SNSDhave secured the top two places in today’s Oricon daily singles charts.

Jang Geun Suk’s Japanese debut single “Let me cry” sold 56,923 copies which placed him first. This was above top idol group SNSD, who released their new single “MR. TAXI/ Run Devil Run.” SNSD sold 40,194 copies falling just short of Jang geun Suk at second place. Third place was Kobukurowho sold 16, 788 copies of their new single “Ano taiyo ga kono sekai wo terashi tsuzukeru yoni“. It is quite obvious that both Jang Geun Suk and SNSD have separated themselves from the rest of the pack.

Although this is only the first day of release, it is possible that we can have high expectations that both Jang geun Suk and SNSD are capable for taking the top spot in the Oricon weekly rankings.
