CN Blue has emerged as the new Hallyu Wave powerhouse.

CN Blue’s first mini album “Bluetory” was placed #1 in Taiwanese G-Music Chart for the first week of August (6-12 August), ahead of fellow Korean boy bands, Super Junior and SS501.

Ranked 2nd and 3rd are Super Junior’s “Bonamana” and SS501′s “Kokoro” respectively.

Taiwan’s Five Music Chart [also for the same week] has seen that CN Blue gained popularity and was also ranked at the top spot of the chart.

FNC Music said,”It has not been a year since CN Blue’s debut, but they are gaining popularity in Taiwan and Mainland China. The same goes for Super Junior and SS501. [Looking at this phenomenon] the future for Korean stars are expected to be great in Taiwan.”

CN Blue who is gaining more popularity nowadays will kick off their Asia Tour in seven countries such as Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan and Thailand soon.

Can someone explain to me what exactly is 'Hallyu Wave'? I've been dying to know and now I'm ready to know.

Hallyu star is like outside of Korea..but not necessarily Asia so to be a Hallyu star is to be popular in countries other than your own.
Rain is a Hallyu star.


At least that's how I see it.

no question is dumb. -_-

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

tl;dr version:
korean culture spreading across the world. viewed by some as a source of pride, others irritation.

SS501 FTW !
i remember last october/november, 5 SS501's mini albums were platinum in Taiwan (rebirth, deja vu, solo collection, super hit, find i think). That's so fantastic *_*
i'm proud to be a TS

-tear tear-

I'm so happy the CNBlue boys are getting some more love.

And statement/question:
I guess some music is a bit delayed in Taiwan? Judging from SS501's "Kokoro". -confused-

Well considering SS501's "Kokoro" was their first Japanese single from '07, I guess I just found it extremely odd that the song is only ranking now.

That's really interesting. I didn't know foreign music popularity worked that way in Taiwan. Hmm..
