On November 16th, 2NE1 and SECRET both released their latest Japanese works, which propelled them to the top of Japan’s Oricon Daily Charts.

SECRET placed 5th on the ‘Albums Daily Chart’ with their “Shy Boy” album, while 2NE1′s “Go Away” secured them a 9th place spot on the ‘Singles Daily Chart’.

Considering how both groups ranked on Oricon’s Top 10 in the same day demonstrates the increasing influence of Hallyu in the Japanese market.

Congratulations, ladies!

2NE1 needs to release original Japanese material. Go Away is so old.

Wondering where people are getting these numbers since Oricon only releases top 3 for weekly sales.

There are predictors out there and what not, but none of it offical.

LOL more atrocious sales from hallyu artists, what is new. Oh well, if they are serious about their advancement into Japan, this won't be painful at all and they'll try to grow in popularity/sales with a few more releases.

I'm surprised my Secret bbs sold this much tbh, I hope they end up selling as much as 2ne1 at the end of the week, it looks possible.

[ghost-whisper.livejournal.com]

woo, the *daily* rankings. *waves mini flag* Well, I suppose that they are charting is a good thing, but it would be cool if more effort could be put into actually creating new fans with good new material so that it felt like more of an accomplishment. :|

Can one of those 5090 properly scan the photobook? That's all I care about. Plz & ty!

tbh 9# spot on Oricon Daily isn't news-worthy. Its better to just leave it alone, than to write a desperate article trying to celebrate how they're at the "top of Japan’s Oricon Daily Charts."
The article on allkpop just make 2NE1 seem so desperate.

naaw 2NE1, such low sales. Oh well, hopefully they'll be consistent throughout the week at least :) and the girls seem to be having a lot of fun on Japanese radio, TV shows and concert/event performances which is nice to see so im not too fussed about sales.

~dominating japan~

Well, they got into top 10 with translated released from their Korean album, that's not so bad ! They'll surely do better when they'll start making original songs in Japanese. So yay 2NE1. :)

aw happy 4 secret (: The idea of the mini album was really nice

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

With such poor sales of the top albums I doubt Secret sold much but seems like the hallyu is falling flat already. By the end seems like only Kara and SNSD will have any career.

LOL I want Secret to fall throughout this week

their mini is god-awful,along with their Jpn career
