SNSD’s full-length Japanese album ‘Girls Generation’ sells close to 1 million copies

The ladies of SNSD who are actively standing on stages all across Asia are about to sell 1 million copies of their first full-length Japanese album, ‘Girls Generation‘.

According to Japanese media outlets such as Sankei Sports, ‘Girls Generation’ which was released in Japan back in June has already sold more than 850,000 copies.

A repackaged album is scheduled to be released on the 28th, and therefore with it’s inclusion in the sales figure, it is highly likely that their first album will surpass the 1 million sales mark. The repackaged album contains songs like “Time Machine” as well as the Japanese version of the “The Boys” from their third album which was released globally in October.

In the event that SNSD sells 1 million copies of ‘Girls Generation’, they will become the first overseas artist to accomplish such a feat in Japan. There has yet to be a Korean group in Japan to sell 1 million copies of an album (Note: BoA as a solo artist already accomplished this feat), so needless to say, all eyes are on the SNSD girls.

Additionally, ‘Girls Generation’ ranked #1 on major Japanese album distributor Tower Records‘ ‘2011 K-POP Album Sales Ranks‘, tallying the number of albums sold between January 1st and November 30th of this year.

In related news, SNSD has attended FujiTV‘s ‘FNS Song Festival‘ on the 7th, and will be rounding out the year at NHK‘s ‘Red & White Singing Battle (Kohaku)‘ on the 31st.

With the success of their first Japanese album, which has sold over 850,000 copies, and their concert tour, which saw over 140,000 fans attend the performances, Girls’ Generation has made a lasting impression on the Japanese music industry. This success has translated into invitations to major year end shows such as “Kouhaku Uta Gassen”, “FNS Music Festival”, and “Music Station Super Live 2011″.

This will be the second year in a row that Girls’ Generation will be attending the year end show hosted by Music Station. Last year at “Music Station Super Live 2010″ Girls’ Generation performed the Japanese versions of their hit songs “Gee” and “Genie”.

Despite not actively promoting in Japan at the moment, the spotlight continues to shine on Girls’ Generation as broadcasting companies aim to secure their appearance on major year end shows.

Girls' Generation's first Japanese album set to exceed one million in sales

Japanese media reported on Dec. 7 that the album released in June has sold 850,000 copies to date and is expected to reach the one million mark very soon. The album, titled "Japan 1st Album Girls' Generation", will be repackaged on Dec. 28 to encourage further sales.

The repackaged album will feature a new song, "Time Machine", as well as a Japanese version of the world-wide hit "The Boys".

In addition, three of the tracks from the original album will be presented as remixes. If the album reaches the one million mark, it will set a new record for the most number of albums sold by a Korean artist or group in Japan.

Japanese media attributed the band's rising popularity to the group's numerous television appearances. The band is also scheduled to perform at the famed end-of-year Japanese concert "Kohaku Uta Gassen".

Countdown Until Girls' Generation's First Japanese Album Sells a Million Copies Gets Underway

Girls’ Generation’s first Japanese album “Girls’ Generation” has sold over 850,000 units, becoming one of the top selling albums in Japan this year. However, with the recent announcement of a re-packaged album going on sale, the countdown to one million copies has officially started.

Pre-orders for the re-packaged album have already started today, which will arrive in stores on December 28. Two new songs will be present in the new album, one which will be the Japanese version of “The Boys”, which was released worldwide on October 19. The second of the two songs is titled “Time Machine”. Also included on the album will be the remixed versions of “Mr.Taxi”, “The Great Escape” and “BAD GIRL”.

Once the album reaches one million copies sold, it’ll be the first time any Korean group has ever accomplished this feat in Japan. With such an incredible milestone in reach, Girls’ Generation’s appearances at major shows such as the “FNS Music Festival” and the “62nd Kouhaku” are well deserved.

If Girls’ Generation’s album reaches the one million sold mark, it will be the first album to reach this difficult plateau in Japan this year.
