Currently the ones shining in Korea andAsia is DBSK. DBSK's 4th album MIROTIC has taken over the number onespot in Korea, Japan, Thailand and etc. Last October DBSK took 1stplace in weekly Oricon chart and had highest album sales for foreignartists in Thailand.
DBSK on the 15th in "2008 M.Net KM MusicFestival" had won ALBUM of the Year, the highest Daesang, as well astook over the BIG5 awards even with the long out of country activites,without a shake, and without a doubt. They have once again took overthe title of Korea's Best Idol Group and have proven this so.
Onthe 20th in the Hanteo Charts, DBSK 4th album hit 300,000 album sales.SM.ENT company has announced, however, that they have reached 360,000currently. (T/N: HANTEO charts updates are slower.)
Withthe current state of digital sales being over album sales, DBSK'sability to sell over 300,000 album is truly amazing and meaningful.This year has been the best year for artists/idols passing 100,000album sales, with Kim Dong-Yul, Big Bang, Brown Eyes, Seo Taiji andmore passing record sales of 100,000, the amount of sales for DBSK hassurpassed even this.
In reality, the image of idol group is notthat of an artist, but just singers with visual looks. Because of thisidol group's music are considered not sophisticated enough among koreanmusic fans.
However this is not the case for DBSK. For DBSK,starting with their debut in 2004, all of their 4 albums sales havebeen around 300,000.
DBSK BREAKS 'IDOL - COLORED SINGERS' IMAGE. (T/N: colored - great on the outside..not much going on in reality)
Koreanmusic critic Mr. Kim said that DBSK has the most loyal fans among anyidol groups and this is why they were able to accomplish this evenduring the hard hit time when album sales were worst for singers in2004.
Kim said "DBSK's fans, instead of going with the newdigital sales, stay with purchasing albums very strictly, and throughthis they show that believe and know that to support their favorateartist and to show their respect, purchasing the album is the best wayto support them"
By buying albums Korean fans and music loversshow that they really appreciate and agree that the quality of themusic is in high standards.
Kim said "Big Bang and Wonder Girlsdebuted around time when digital sales were normal and DBSK had debutedaround time when album sales were still popular. So the fans know, areused to, and understand more how important purchasing albums are andthey stick with tradition"
And DBSK does not just have fans inthe 10's but also all throughout the 30's. Because they have a wide agerange in fans, it helps their albums sell more, especially since imageof a more mature and manly DBSK has appealed to fans in the 20's aswell.
WHY DBSK POPULAR IN ASIA
DBSK are able to gainpopularity not just in korea because they are a group with everything:image, vocals, and dance skills. This is a rare case. Starting fromtheir debut, DBSK has always shown the most powerful stage performanceswith lives. Starting 3 years ago, DBSK had been doing small concerts inJapan to get used to stepping into areas of unfamiliarity. Their liveperformances are the best. Their tall bodies and idol facial images iswhat DBSK adds to their talents.
Music critic Im Jin Mo has said"in DBSK's case, their image and performance as well as music hasnothing for the critics to pick on. We can't really find a bad pointabout them to bash about. Especially with this 4th album - it hashelped DBSK and people to realize how much DBSK appeals to fans allover Korea and Asia."
KIM "The reason DBSK is being accepted asartists in Japan even with their idol looks is because of theirskills." "There are no idol groups in Japan that has everything fromlooks, great vocals and perfect dance performaces, this is why DBSKappeals to them. They are filling that empty spot for the Japanesefans."
Kim Ki Woong (MNET CP) "DBSK is a group that has surpassed the 1st generation idols H.O.T."
UNIT GROUPS SOLOS? NO! Reason is DBSK's stubborness.
Many idols currently are busy doing solo work as well as unit groups, but DBSK has never publicly done solo works.
Unitperformances can definitely help the group to gain more popularityamong various categories in the entertainment industry, but this canalso bring negative effect to the groups. Also the image of solo workcan get in way with the image of the members in groups as a whole too.
SMENTERTAINMENT has said "DBSK will not be doing any SOLO work in thefuture or neither do we have any plans for it" "DBSK is a group thatputs GROUP and TEAM first. "
MBC MUSIC CORE PD
"DBSK is like fusion food. You can put them anywhere in Asia and they will still be on top."
-Their vocal stills are really great. They have surpassed the past imageof idols. They also are very good at keeping their group image. Sincetheir debut I have never seen their image crumble and this is rare tosee a group that have kept their image well this long... The reason whythey were able to do this is because DBSK members are a very hardworking group and they don't give up. They must be extremely tired withtheir schedule but I've never seen them show their weak side ever. Evenwhen I meet them to have a conversation during recording, they alwaysshow high energy.
SBS INKIGAYO PD
"They are an idol's dream as well as an idol's end." (T/N:meaning they are what all idols wish to be what they dream about, andDBSK will end the idol world themselves meaning they will carry theirfame till the end.)
- DBSK's performance, charisma, music,and visual image are best. They've shown a lot more relaxation onstagerecently but their performance energy has gotten bigger. Are there anygroups that can compare their talents with DBSK right now?
M.NET COUNTDOWN PD
"DBSK is Korea's representing idols because they are the highest idols of our country. They are at the top of the peak."
DBSKhas surpassed the image of the 1st generation H.O.T. Their performanceand music has been upgraded. Especially DBSK'S MIROTIC-Jumun; there areno groups or singers that can actually be able to do this music andactually make it look good as DBSK does. Their 'pose' on stage isn'tsomething you can joke around about.
