Super Junior Surpasses 200,000

Super Junior has proof of their popularity and it comes in the form of album sales! As of the 15th, the 13 member idol group has sold over 200,000 copies albums--setting a record for themselves. After they released their 3rd album 'Sorry Sorry' on March 12th, they've sold 75,319 albums online and 139,851 albums offline. Added all together, it comes up to a total of 215,170 albums (who knew those fruitcakes talented boys had it in them?) In two months, they've surpassed the amount of sales for their 2nd album back in 2007 (that album sold 190,000). It isn't just the best-selling album in Korea though, it's been number one on album sale charts in countries such as Taiwan and Thailand. In the past two years, excluding DBSK and their crazy dedicated Cassie fans, Super Junior is the only group to have sold over 200,000 albums. Super Junior members spoke up about their success saying, "We're really happy that everyone has given us such great love after we returned as Super Junior in 1 year and 6 months. We thank all those who have encouraged us continuously and will keep working hard." I have a feeling that they're going to be selling a lot more though, especially since their song "It's You" is actually pretty good. Thanks to lala for the tip!
