Asia's top boy band DBSK / TVXQ are breaking records. According to SM Entertainment, the pre-orders on the first day their 4th album went on sale was over 200,000 copies. They've come a long way from their debut album, which only had 10,000 or so pre-orders. SM Entertainment said that this new album is the new record holder for most pre-orders in a single day. The Koreans are eagerly awaiting this new Korean album, as DBSK / TVXQ has been concentrating on the Japanese market for a very long time.

The success doesn't end there, many people believe that their upcoming Japanese single titled, "Why Have I fallen in Love With You" will reach the top of the Oricon Charts like they have previously with "Purple Line", Beautiful You, and "Summer Dream".

DBSK / TVXQ is lucky to have fans (Cassiopeia) that actually spend their money. We don't see DBSK / TVXQ whining about illegal downloading like Tablo of Epik High. But all this success is pretty amazing, speaking of amazing...

Remember back in April, when we reported that DBSK's music helped a taiwanese fan wake from a coma? Well DBSK / TVXQ recently visited her and here are some pictures courtesy of http://www.tvxqtwfc.com

They exceeded 200,000 pre-orders in one day? That’s amazing. Most K-pop artists struggle to surpass 100k in an entire year.

That’s a sweet picture of the boys and the fan btw. smile

the news came from baidu though. it’s not the most trustworthy source for dongbang lovers although it gives one of the fastest updates and pics, esp in terms of stalkerazzi pics.

i read a news that she was a bit ‘rude’ while posing with the boys. she made 4 of the boys go out so she can have a picture with junsu alone. then again, i’d probably do the same with jaejoong.

i’m been going on allkpop like all year and i didn’t hear anything about dbsk music saving a girl from a coma.
that’s amazing smile

well dbsk is soooo..... i can’t explain but every girl knows.
and also i wonder what would happen when they get old and they start to use fame (maybe most likely not) and who they will marry HAHAHAAHH XD

WOW! Congrats to the boys for hitting the 200k mark <3. They have gone so far since their first debut and CD. I’m so proud of them! I think it’s going to be a long time before they actually retire. It’s a miracle that the girl woke up from her coma! Music works wonders I tell you. The boys look incredibly hot in the black tanks smile .

@Sara. what sjdjg was talking about the girl in the coma, the news was on soompi a while back but the pics were recent. the preorders news were just release on smoopi yesterday.

But congrats to the boys on the preorders. imagine the sales when it does come out?

Doesnt the article say reported back in april for the coma thing, anyways I think that coma thing sounds too good to be true. Maybe fabricated for public relations to make their image better ???

I’m one of those 200, 000...ahaha...well, If they counted international buyers...and here I was actually worrying that Cassies won’t support them and resort to illegal downloading...but 200, 000 is not even half of the Cassies, it’s not that I’m expecting all of them to pre-order it in one day...and I also believe that “Doushitte Kimi Wo Suki Ni Natte Shimattandarou” will be their best record sale in Japan...I really think that its their best Japanese song, too...and the other song in the single “Box Ship” is really good, too...but totally different from other DBSK’s songs…

oh and I forgot...they also said that there would be a Korean version of “Kiss Ashita Mama Sayonara (As we kissed, goodbye)” in their 4th album...I certainly can’t wait to hear the version!…

ooohhh wow...I was thinking about Pre-ordering it too but then I thought “Why pre-order when I have to wait to get all my stuff?”
I download their songs......I have all their singles but I’m not rich enough to order both version of every single >_< damn SM always gotta make more than one version. I just hope they don’t have 4 version of the 4th album like they did with their 3rd album >_< I end up getting 8 copies of just the 3rd album but got rid of half of them....

This is why DBSK will be making music until they’re 74598 years old.
Otherwise, Cassies will attack LSM if he decides to disband them.

@LuCiF3rAnG3l
don’t they sell like just CD and then CD+DVD...if you get the CD+DVD and other stuffs are in it you don’t need to worry about the other versions that’s why they cost more than just the CD versions...so just get the CD+DVD version they’re like $60 and up instead of buying other versions...you would also have their Korean version of their “Kiss Ashita Mama Sayonara” or they would probably do what AveX did in Japan...their compose song was not in the CD version but only in CD+DVD version…
but sometimes they have different stuffs in another version...like behind the scenes and sorts...so I just resort in buying some of them that I don’t have...ahaha…

uh...the album’s supposed to come out in september rite?
the pre-orders are really early huh?
well, i could totally understand how it reached 200,000 in a day…
they are literally living legends in korea after all, you can see that they’re owez given special treatment whenever they’re on korean variety show.

bout the comatose, ya thats the first ive heard of it...that is sooooo amazing… (the mum is lucky she thought of that!!)
but true, i’m surprised the girl didn’t pass out at the sight of the boys in tank top!~!!

hm, i got a little surprised at the fan because she didn’t seem exactly “joyful”.
i mean, if i was such a fan of DBSK that i would wake up from a coma by listening to their music, i’d be so happy at seeing them O.O

I’m so gonna buy their 4th album even if they’re gonna release 34087584250 versions of it (i bought all 4 versions of their 3rd album even though it sucked..the songs i mean)

Damn, that IS impressive O_O
=P And that single IS most likely going to reach the top since the decided to push the release date to a month/week (not too sure) when the JE Entertainment fags didn’t have any new singles coming out.
LSM is one smart 아저씨....
