Girls’ Generation’s latest Japanese single, “Oh!”, earned first place on Oricon’s “10/8 Single Weekly Ranking” chart, selling 66,000 copies since its release on September 26th. In addition, the DVD and Blu-Ray for “Girls’ Generation Complete Video Collection” reached number one on the “Oricon Weekly DVD” and “Oricon Weekly Blu-Ray” charts, with 40,000 DVDs and 19,000 Blu-Ray discs sold.
This is the first time Girls’ Generation earned first place rankings on the single and Blu-Ray charts since their Japanese debut in September 2010. They are the first female artist or group to reach number one on all three charts — Oricon’s Weekly Single, DVD, and Blu-Ray Rankings — in the same week. The only other group to accomplish this same feat was Mr. Children, a Japanese pop rock band formed in 1988. Girls’ Generation was able to achieve this feat even though they are a foreign music group in the Japanese market, making this an even greater accomplishment.

Woo!
wooo!!
congrats SNSD!!
jjang!!
They deserve these achievements because of their hard work. Another break record made by the girls. As one of SONEs, I am very proud. Way to go SNSD.. Keep up the good work but don’t forget to have a proper rest too. Hehe..
When you realize how much effort they put into providing those products on the shelves or on the internet, it suddenly becomes much more easier to take out the wallet and exchange some paper for their hardwork.
chukae…. wahhh…. unbelievable the girl’s cinca extra ordinary…
GO Girls Generation!!! :D I so happy for them! <3
Go soshi, go soshi! How amazing that they could achieve such a feat as foreign artists, an incredible achievement! Cemented their place as legends ^^
congratulations angels on another amazing accomplishment. SNSD gain another feat on their long list of accomplishments. congratulations to the Sones that was able to support and make Soshi #1. total copies sold are 125,000 for the week. can you imagine if this conflict between S.K. and Japan wasn’t going on, how the girls single and dvd/blu-ray would have been? they’ve done little promotions for the single and still manage to out-do the competition. dvd/blu-ray cost a lot and still that many got sold. Sones are HARDCORE supporters/lovers of Soshi. ONLY SNSD, ONLY Power of 9. kamsahnida SSF ♥♥♥
Gratz Girls.
It’s an honour to be mentioned in the same article with one of the most popular Japanese rock band. Hopefully they will continue breaking records and topping charts this year.
Daebak!
LET’S GO SOSHI, LET’S GO!! ^_^~~~~~
OMG NOW I HAVE TO GO AND READ THE UPCOMING JAP SINGLE AND ALBUM NEWS!! :O
OHMAIGAWD I’M SO EXCITED *____*
there have been so many doubters of this promotion
period…so many people who thought the effort and
originality were lacking to the point where this would
give the girls a black eye on their usual chart
domination…granted, it was not like other promotions,
but guys, this is snsd we’re talking about…they put more
effort and enthusiasm into one second of replayed music
then most people do into the most original and unique
of talents…they are not motivated to succeed by the
music or the concept…they are motivated by us…and
any chance they get…even for a second…to make us
feel better…they dominate it!!!
Beautifully written :D
Congratulations!!!
Congrats! ^-^
