By their appearance on December 31th last year at NHK Hall in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan (the 59th Kouhaku), TVXQ successfully strengthened their position in Japan and therefore closed the 2008 year amazingly.
TVXQ was successfully selected as one of the guest in this most prestigious event in Japan whose guests are selected based on total album sales and downloads, thus the musicians who get involved in the event can be categorized as the best performers of the year. Also, in 59th Kohaku TVXQ successfully became the winner together with the white team.
In 2008 TVXQ successfully put their 4 singles as the champion of Oricon Weekly chart, and this also considered as a record-breaking for the only non-Japanese musician who has swept Oricon Weekly 4 consecutive times.
TVXQ’s 4th album entitled MIROTIC by its 6th month sales, has been successfully sold 502,837 copies, and this is the best sales after 5 years ago, in 2003 where Kim Goon Moo’s 8th album was sold 500,000 copies. In addition, TVXQ is paid 800 million won for each of their appearance in CF, showing the strong influence of this group.
Tohoshinki got the 6th on Kohaku Most Searched Singers Rank released today. The rank is quite interesting. While the winner of 59th Kohaku was White Team, the rank itself is quite much dominated by the Red team members (female singers). It can be proven as Ayumi Hamasaki tops the rank by beating EXILE who becomes the runner up.
Tohoshinki becomes the 6th is a great achievement to consider that their last performance was their first appearance in Kohaku. Well, most likely it’s because the boys got positive review by a reputable Japanese music critic.
