T-ara promises a free concert if korean fans are willing to buy 500,000 copies of "jewelry box"

[unreal.livejournal.com]

T-ara's first Japanese studio album "Jewelry box" will be released on June 6th.

T-ara's Japanese first album "Jewelry box" went for pre-sale on April 19th, and took the first and third place on the Japanese website Tower Record's daily sale charts.

T-ara's agency said through a press release, "T-ara's first studio album 'Jewelry box' has received an explosive reaction and even ranked #1 in daily charts. The industry officials predicted it'll sell 300,000 - 400,000 units and we have high expectations for it."

Following, they promised that, "If T-ara's album can sell over 500,000 copies, T-ara will hold a free guerrilla concert in the cities of Korea and Tokyo, Japan."

Meanwhile, T-ara's debut single in Japan last September, "Bo Peep Bo Peep", debuted at #1 on Oricon's Daily and Weekly chart, being the first for any girl Korean girl group.

T-ara's Japanese album will include the Japanese versions of "Bo Peep Bo Peep", "Yayaya", "Roly-Poly", "Lovey-Dovey", and new Japanese songs.

T-ara is currently promoting in Japan and preparing for their concerts being in June. On July 14th, they'll open their official fanclub and plan to meet fans with a new album around then.

That's not really the appropriate joke here, they've never sold more than like 70k in Korea for an album. The more fitting quip would be "CCM poops out another useless PR provocation they'll never have to follow up on". Won't sell 500k, of course.

that bribe isn't good enough for what they're asking for.

It's like CCM enjoys setting ridiculous standards for them and then reveling in the fact that they failed to meet expectations.

He'll probably blame the album selling short on T-ara for not working hard enough

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

500,000 copies for an album full of shit remakes the J-fans have already bought with the singles?



CCM needs to share the crack they've been smoking.

Lets fill this place with gifs laughing at CCM.

Not bloody likely. 500,000+ is like KARA-level sales.

[asnindie.livejournal.com]

It took Kara a year, a controversy and a pretty damn huge singles to get there for their first album. FFS even Perfume can't sell 500k. With all the bulk buying the fans will have to do, just pay for the concert, it'll be cheaper.
