Ryu Shi Won answered, "Jang Geun Suk is currently receiving a lot of love in Japan as an actor and a singer. I think he's a good match for Japan and knew he'd do well." He continued, "I've praised SNSD before to a Japanese record label, and what do you know, they're currently receiving a lot of popuarity [in Japan] now.
