KARA屁股舞一億人次跳 韓流狂潮席捲日本



問時下日本最流行什麼，答案當然是KARA的屁股舞了。KARA 進軍日本歌壇的第一支單曲“MR.”剛一面世，即刻旋風般地登上了日本所有流行音樂排行榜首，席捲了整個日本，成了時下日本傳唱最多的韓國歌曲。







日本知名的資訊頻道NIPPON TV表示，“MR.”是日本今年最流行的三首歌曲之一，特別是“MR.”MV裡的屁股舞更是風迷整個日本，數粗略估計，在日本有數百萬的人在跳這支舞，不僅普通民眾喜歡模仿，更有許多日本當紅明星也加入到了模仿的行列中來。

據統計資訊顯示，日本KTV 11月，12月兩個月間，“MR.”是點唱次數最多的歌曲，可以說，KARA的“MR.”跳著屁股舞在日本大行其道。據LACOREE統計資料表 明，KARA的五名成員在“MR.”這支歌曲內，更扭動屁股539次，每個人在KTV中點唱一次這首歌，跳這支舞的話，就會消耗18大卡的熱量。據KTV 統計資料表明，這支歌每天至少要被點唱23次，全國範圍內，每天至少被點唱21萬次。

另據調查資料顯示，在KTV點唱這首歌時，大部分的人都會邊唱邊跳，以此計算的話，在日本一天的時間內，就有超過1億的人次跳這支屁股舞。

KARA has managed to sell 200,000 units of their first Japanese album, ‘Girl’s Talk‘, in just one month after its release.

According to the Oricon Chart on December 28th, KARA’s ‘Girl’s Story’ ranked in at 8th place for the weekly album chart; the girls have sold 21,933 units alone this week. Having placed 2nd on the same weekly chart for selling 100,000 units in its first week, KARA has sold 206,845 units in total during its first month.

Having recently received a Platinum Award for their ‘Mister‘ ringtone (over 250,000 downloads), KARA is expected to receive another Platinum Award from the Japanese Record Association in January if the rate of their album sales continue in this upward trend.

Since the Japanese Record Association combines album sales that are not reflected in the Oricon, KARA could receive their Platinum Award as early as the first week of January. This will not only be a first achievement for any Korean girl group, but they’ll also be the second Korean group to receive the award after TVXQ. Seeing as how TVXQ sold 200,000-300,000 albums for each of their official albums, KARA’s accomplishments are nothing less than extraordinary.
