JYJ member Kim Junsu’s first solo album has also received high popularity in Japan.
On the 18th of May, C-JeS expressed, “Kim Junsu’s first solo album ‘XIA Tarantallegra’ has received the no. 1 spot in Japan’s iTunes.” This is a result Kim Junsu achieved under the circumstances of no-promotional-activities-scheduled in Japan and yet leading ahead of world renowned stars Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber, thus serving a higher significance.
When the news of Kim Junsu’s first solo album was first released in the beginning of May, it immediately attained no. 1 and continuously for the following weeks in pre-orders chart at Tower Records. After the album was released, all the music stores received great sales results, with the album taking over the no. 1 sales spot successfully. As many stores faced a sudden increase of pre-orders, there were some who faced sold-out and lack of stocks situations.
C-JeS representative explained, “We think that the reason for the high popularity received in Japan for Xia’s first album is due to Japanese general public who have been awaiting Kim Junsu’s music and performances.”, “This album is unique in the first place, and with the addition of new sensational trial (on music and images), blending the ability of Kim Junsu as a singer into completing this high quality work. We think that this is an important factor for such great popularity.”
Kim Junsu will be starting his Asia Tour at Seoul Jamsil Indoor Stadium on the 19th -20th May, before embarking to 7 other countries.
