[NEWS] 100107 The Album Sales of TVXQ, SHINee, and Other K-pop Groups are Going Strong in the Philippines

The album sales of TVXQ, SHINee, and other K-pop groups are going strong in the Philippines.

Based on sales reports from 50 Odyssey record stores in the Philippines for the period Dec. 16 to Jan. 1, TVXQ’s “Mirotic: The 3rd Asia Tour Concert” CD is at No. 4 in the international album chart--just a few slots behind those of Andrea Bocelli's, Taylor Swift's, and Lady Gaga's.

SHINee’s mini-album “2009, Year of Us” is at No. 11, while all-girl pop group f(x)’s first album “Chu” is at No. 16, followed by Super Junior M’s “Super Girl” at No. 17.

Universal Records released TVXQ’s album only last Dec. 15 and SHINee’s “2009, Year of Us” last Dec. 23.

Meanwhile, at Music One stores, SHINee’s album is at No. 2 for the period Dec. 28 to Jan. 3. The mini-album, which comes with a free calendar, contains the hit songs “Ring Ding Dong” and “Jojo.” SHINee’s strong showing in the sales chart is buoyed by the pop idol group’s visit to the country last Nov. 27 to perform in the “Philippines-Korea Friendship Festival” concert at the Cultural Center of the Philippines. The group is currently promoting “Jojo” in various Korean music shows.

Meanwhile, Universal Records announced that it will release TVXQ’s two other albums, "Mirotic” version C and “The Secret Code” this month, along with Super Junior’s “Super Show 2 Live Album” CD and Girls Generation’s “Gee” album.

TVXQ, SHINee, Super Junior and its subgroup Super Junior M, Girls Generation, and f(x) are all managed by SM Entertainment.
