TVXQ DBSK Tohoshinki Oricon Stand By You

Oricon recently released their mid year album sales ranking for 2009 and TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki did better than most expected. “The Secret Code” came in at number 10 with a sales figure of 248,000 for the first half of 2009. This placed them above popular artists such as KAT-TUN who had 237,000 sales for "Break the Records -by you & for you-" and Utada who had 228,000 sales for "This is The One." BoA who released a combo "Best Album and American Debut album" was ranked 25th with a sales figure of 131,000.

Here are the Top 10 sales figures:
1. Mr Children - "Supermarket Fantasy" (1.2 million)
2. Exile - "Exile Ballad Best" (807k)
3. Dreams Come True - "Do Your Dreams come true?" (632k)
4. Remioromen - "Remio Best" (471k)
5. Ikimono-Gakari - "My Song Your Song" (404k)
6. Koda Kumi - "Trick" (385k)
7. Ayumi - "Next Level" (363k)
8. RADWIMPS - "Arutokorni no Teiri" (314k)
9. Unicorn - "Shamble" (250k)
10. TVXQ / Tohoshinki - "The Secret Code" (248k)


Some of you enjoyed TVXQ's Stand By You scans a few days ago and now you can enjoy the video for the off-shoot:

This is good news for TVXQ and they should be even more excited with their Tokyo Dome concert just a few days away.

Obviously they surpassed them, KAT-TUN had so many concert dates
going on at that time and just tickets and goods will cost lots, adding on photo books
and Magazine. But TVXQ is good! Continue!

OH MY FREAKING GOD! I get goosebumps all over reading this news. I was wondering if they could be on top 20 this year and looks like my hope is not impossible. I expect them to have more fans with Stand By You. Tokyo Dome is coming near too. I’m really excited even when I can’t go.

I’m proud of my boys.  I bought their album and I am really happy that they are doing well.  They should come to America to give a concert sometimes.  I want to have a chance to cook food for them like the Korean Cassies did.
