Chic idols MBLAQ’s Japanese single album ‘Your Luv’ became the first in Asia to sell more than 40,000 copies within one week and hit No.2 on the Oricon weekly charts.
As Asian artists, MBLAQ entered the Oricon charts in their debut week and scored the No.1 spot in the daily charts for three days, and sold the second most single in a week as well. This record has been achieved for the first time by an Asian artist.
Asian artists has never placed a rank in the Oricon weekly charts during their debut week. MBLAQ has now written history as the representative Asian artist to make this happen.
Before the official release of the single, MBLAQ reached No.1 on music download site ‘Recochoku’, MV charts as well as online booking sites. Many have predicted the beginning of the MBLAQ syndrome and a potential new leader in the Hallyu Wave.
A representative from Sony Music said, “MBLAQ has created a new record with their first ranking. This will lead them towards the best position as Asian artists.”
Meanwhile, MBLAQ will be having live events at 5 different cities, Osaka, Fukuoka, Saporo, Tokyo and Nagoya. They will personally meet the fans on stage as a gift of thanks to them. MBLAQ is expected to advance much further from now on.
