‘The Best’ Ranks First on Oricon Weekly Chart for Two Consecutive Weeks

Girls’ Generation’s “The Best” album has just topped the Oricon chart for the week of August 11th. This is the second consecutive week it has done so, the first being the week of August 4th. Girls’ Generation is the first Korean group to achieve this feat; BoA topped the Oricon weekly chart twice in a row in 2004 with her album, “Love & Honesty”. “The Best” has also placed first on the Oricon daily chart for twelve consecutive days, from July 22nd to August 2nd. In total, 106,000 copies of the album have been sold so far.

At the end of last year, Girls’ Generation was also the first Korean girl group to obtain the number one spot more than once on the Oricon weekly chart with their “GIRLS&PEACE” album, after their “Girls’ Generation” Japanese debut album ranked first in 2011.

Purchase links for the physical “The Best” album can be found here. The album can also be downloaded from iTunes in select countries.

Well, that’s SNSD. What do you expect? Haha XD jk but really, SNSD’s really The Best! :D

Congrats to SNSD for setting such record! I hope the album continues to do well enough to also top the Oricon monthly album chart. :)

They really are The Best. Indestructible is an amazing song and it so full of feeling that it even makes me want to shed a tear every time i hear it. The album is really worth getting. Hope Girls’ Generation continues to top the charts. Thanks for the news SSF.

whoop whoop Soshi doing wonderful. so proud of them, so proud of us Sone that were able to buy the album. it’s amazing how a greatest hits album with nothing but old songs, except for a few (BJ & Indestructible) can still be high ranking on Oricon chart. Sones already have all or majority of the songs and yet we still put in our order to get the treasure. congrats babes!

Congratulation Girls Generation! I knew you guys can do it! The Best album is indeed the BEST! And thanks for news. SSF writers rock! :)
