SNSD was recently featured in an issue of influential Japanese magazine “Nikkei Business” on September 27th.

Nikkei Business introduced the group by titling their article, “The advancement of Korean corporations are a lot like SNSD.”

The article explained, “SNSD is a Korean girl group that holds an infinite amount of popularity. They officially debuted in Japan on September 8th and managed to sell well over 100,000 debut singles in Japan’s recessing music market. They’ve managed to dominate the Japanese music market in a very short amount of time.”

Typical SNSD fag constantly living in la-la land.
One month ago you even managed to delude yourselves into thinking they could beat AKB48 _on_debut_day_ just because you found a trashy Japanese article on the Internet overhyping SNSD. Pathetic.

The truth is that SNSD isn't even that popular in South Korea.

Either you're trolling or you're a fucking retard.
Did you notice how the article is from September 27th? You even said it yourself!
Yet as of October 8th they're still a long way from selling 100,000 copies. This is trashy sensationalistic journalism at its finest based on blatant bullshit and you're eating it all up just because they're flattering SNSD.
No, Genie didn't sell 100,000 copies and at this rate it never will.
You're so fucking sad.

>That comment shows me how much you know about Japanese music industry.
No, I know it well enough to see the bullshit and viral marketing in your idiotic arguments. You seem to think that the Japanese entertainment is just Morning Musume. Sorry, but nowadays they're bottom feeders at best.
On average, Johnny's Entertainment singles sales are in the order of 400,000 - 500,000 units EACH, with Arashi selling even more. AKB48 is on a similar situation (the three singles they released this years sold 1,500,000 units combined) and even their sister groups fare much better than many other groups.
Get yourself educated.

They are 83K now. Their single WILL BE over 100K in sales.

Who the fuck is comparing the sales of SNSD's single 'Genie' - which is a 2 year-old korean songs song - with new albums/singles of the top musical act in Japan(Arashi) or the top girl idol group (AKB48) in Japan.

Stop creating strawman arguments - nobody is saying SNSD is the #1 in Japan. Keep denying SNSD's success in Japan while all the FACTS say otherwise.

I beg you, tell me once again that story where SNSD was performing at a big venue in South Korea along with other K-pop acts. That one where everyone but their fans turned off their glowlight out of protest and SNSD was left chocking back their tears of embarrassment because just 10% of the audience had them still on.

LOL @ you telling Nikkei Business (which is a respected business publication) about business.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikkei_Business_Publications

FYI : When music companies manufacture/press CDs/DVD, they take these products and sell them to retailers. These retailers pay for the CDs/DVD, which counts as a sale for the music companie. So, yes, Universal Japan (the company behind SNSD in Japan) sold over 100k singles.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6250557
LOL, now you're just grasping at straws.

That's called shipping, dumbass. They shipped 100,000 copies but didn't sell them all, let alone "over 100,000" of them.
They didn't even manage to clear the initial shipment, despite the amount being so low.

I disagree. I've had the repackage on rotation for months. It's fucking awesome. "Run Devil Run", "Oh!", "Gee" & "Genie" are all retardedly catchy perfect pop songs and the slow jams are pretty beautiful.

Retailer F thinks a musical act from Company A will generate a certain amount of sales. Retailer F puts in a order with Company A for a certain number of CD.

Company A presses CD. Company A sells CD to Retailer F. That is revenue (an a sale) for Company A.

Retailer F puts CD in stores. Buyers buy that CD, which gets recorded as sale for Retailer F. Whatever the sales for Retailer F, it still doesnt change the sales for Company A unless there are agreements for Company A to take back any unsold CD's that Retailer F cannot get sell.

Which is the only thing in the whole process that counts as sales, you stupid kimchi-breath. Everything else is considered "supplying".
Sales = the act in which the end user exchanges money tender for a certain product, in other words the point where supply meets demand

You're just butthurt because I exposed the bullshit in Overhyping Weekly (how much you want to be that the article was paid by SNSD's contractors?) and now you're making this sorry scene because you, like the editors, didn't even check facts before speaking up.
By the way, selling 100,000 copies even in "Japan's recessing music market" is hardly a feat.

You are a moron. The company that sells the CD to the retailer ... that isnt a sale?

One of the criteria to be nominated for a Billboard Japan Top artists os 2010 is to sell over 100k albums/singles. Only 55 music artists in Japan (including SNSD) can claim that feat.

What part of supplying didn't your kimchi-filled cranium understand?

>to sell over 100k albums/singles
Don't you understand the meaning of "nominee"? They're just putting faith (maybe too much) in SNSD that they'll manage to move 100,000 copies of an unique singles by the end of 2010. Oh, and my point still stand, on September 27th didn't move "well over 100,000 debut singles".

You seem to think that filling a warehouse with singles nobody wants counts as copies sold on the billboards. Judging by your reasoning, you seem to have caught the dog meat's equivalent of BSE.

>You know the charting company that measures music sales
And what does Oricon say about Genie's sales...? More importantly what did it say about it on September...?
Going by these data, did Nikkei Business say bullshit for the sake of overhyping?

No, thank you very much. I like the way they are now, holed up in a corner where hopefully nobody can see or hear them. It's not like they have what it takes to be an idol, and their fans are annoying shitheads with an overinflated sense of entitlement, nobody excluded.
