SNSD goes double platinum with 500,000 Japanese album sales

SNSD has just become the first Korean girl group to sell over 500,000 album copies in Japan! Their first full album, entitled ‘Girls’ Generation‘, was released a little over a month ago on June 1st, but has since received an explosive reaction amongst Japanese fans.

The album ranked first place on the Oricon chart within a week of its release, and has now reached double platinum in sales.

A representative for SM Entertainment said, “Through this album and these records, I think we were able to show just how influential SNSD is as Asia’s number one girl group at the moment.”

SNSD recently wrapped up their Japanese tour for over 140,000 fans, and will be returning to Korea for their solo concert in the Olympic Park Gymnasium on July 23rd.

Congratulations to these nine hard-working ladies!
