The first month sales of the album have been counted:

13,749 sheets.

That's not a great result. Especially compared with the previous heat, it can be said that the thunder is heavy and the rain is smaller. However, the quality of this album is very high, and when the word of mouth ferments again, the stamina should be able to continue.

But even for the next three or four months, the momentum will continue unabated. The final total sales volume is about 6 or 70,000 yuan. And it's already the best-case scenario, and there will be no surprises.

BoA's "NO.1" sold 1.29 million copies in Japan, and Toshin's album sales also counted at 100,000...... These are far more astronomical than his. Although Qian Mingxun does not have much obsession with sales, a sense of gap is inevitable.

Cheon Myung-hoon received a lot of enlightenment and comfort, and everyone wanted to tell him a truth: you don't need to compare with others, and there is no point in comparison. That's quite a result!

Oh, yes. Since you have chosen the path of traditional singers, you should have been mentally prepared in advance. Whether it is the general environment of the record market or the new trend in the Korean music industry. It is no longer an era when one person can sell millions of dollars at every turn.

At that time, Kim Jong Kook's Turbo group was said to have been disbanded by the economic company because it did not reach one million sales. Looking back today, it feels like it's an unreasonable thing!

RB's record market ranks second in the world, and it has the potential to surpass Europe and the United States at any time. Although it sounds incredible, this is because RB's awareness of rights protection is among the best in the world. While other countries are still helpless against the rampant piracy, RB has enacted laws more than 100 years ago.

So RB is a pure land and a holy land, and countless exotic singers have come and gone to occupy the next place. BoA and Toshin are currently focusing on the RB market, and Younha's achievements in RB have also attracted domestic attention.

None of this is without reason.

Even later, the standard development route of Hallyu singers was to focus on RB and move to Europe and the United States. It is profitable to enter the RB market and enter the European and American markets. That's why only two versions of Korean and Japanese are released, while there are only a few singles in Chinese. The reasons behind this are worth pondering.

Therefore, in a sense, the Korean restriction order is indeed necessary for its birth. However, the strategies and games at the political and commercial levels should still be viewed separately from singers. If you can't generalize angrily, it would be too extreme.

Back to business. The results of the BoA are impressive, but that's the old stuff of '02. Even BoA himself would not have been able to achieve that kind of results. This was the Great Depression of the record market. And Toshin is a popular idol group, and the sales itself will crush traditional singers. This is again an indisputable fact.

Considering all the above factors, Cheon Myung-hoon's sales are not so unbearable. But there is a saying that is very true, there is no harm without comparison:

Li Xiuying, the pre-sale of 7 albums of "Grace" exceeded 200,000 copies!

Of course, Lee so-young is not unknown. And looking at the entire Korean song industry, she is also one of the hottest popular female singers in recent years. AND IT IS ALSO QUITE POPULAR IN RB, AND IS ALSO KNOWN AS THE K-POP PRINCESS.

03 and 04 For two consecutive years, the annual sales of her albums are close to 800,000 copies. It was precisely with such impressive results that she was able to stand tall in the storm of "10 minutes" that swept South Korea, and even beat Lee Hyo-ri to win the MBC Song Award. Let Lee Hyo-ri regret missing out on the triple crown.

This time, Lee so-young's MV has also been quietly planned. In collaboration with Lee Joon-gi, the hottest actor at the moment, it was divided into a trilogy and three songs released in turn, which whetted the appetite of the people and fans.

The number of playbacks of the album's tracks exceeded 3,000, setting a new record for radio broadcasting. The results of the sound source are even more impressive, and they have been in one position for several weeks.

In addition, Lee Hyori announced his return and is about to start singing and publicity. All of a sudden, the album's popularity soared wildly. As a result, Cheon Myung-hoon's title song "Dreamer" can only barely hold the top ten position. And there is a lack of follow-up publicity, and the ranking is also precarious.

After the college entrance examination season, the attention of the people has returned to normal. Without the help of these external forces to hype, he is not enough to compete with these two for the time being. So in the past two weeks in the singing show, Cheon Myung-hoon has always been defeated by Lee so-young.

There was no chance to turn over and counterattack, Qian Mingxun chose to end the song early, and there was no opposition within Loen. Because if nothing happens with this album, it should be the end of it.

But for the people who love to watch the excitement, it was just a warm-up before, and the real show has just begun!

In this comeback battle of Lee Hyori, the gimmick can no longer be sufficient. not only to wash away the negative impact of plagiarism, but also to complete the glorious revenge on Lee so-young in one fell swoop.

Is there anything more exciting than this? Where can I see this kind of plot on weekdays, it's almost the same as filming an inspirational TV series.

Lee Hyori has really been aggrieved during this time, and it is not her character to be submissive. Knowing that Cheon Myung-hoon had been in second place for two consecutive weeks, Lee Hyo-ri said on the phone before his comeback: Don't take it to heart, your time has not yet come. Let's see the anger that helps you vent your anger!

Lee Hyori's domineering declaration of war was not empty rhetoric. Although later on the singing stage, my movements and expressions were a little stiff because I was too hard. But Lee Hyo-ri still easily defeated Lee so-young and started another consecutive championship reign that belonged to her.

The hundred-legged insect is still dead but not stiff, not to mention just a rumor with no evidence. Lee Hyo-ri can't be knocked down just like that, and this incident will only turn into her nourishment in the end.

Although word of mouth and image will inevitably be lost, Lee Hyori is still the undoubted diva in the music industry. After this solo second event, Lee Hyori promised fans that he would definitely return again.

Later, she continued to play the heroine of "AnyStar", the third installment of the ANY series, in collaboration with Lee Joon-gi, following Samsung's promotional songs "AnyMotion" and "AnyClub". The number of Internet hits and topic popularity have surpassed the first two, and the value is also firmly in the absolute first place of the Samsung family.

Lee Hyori is not limited to the music industry, and film and television and variety shows are also in full bloom. In '07, with a sky-high signing fee of 2.2 billion won for 3 years, it was transferred to CJ Group Mnet. It can be said that it is a strong team, and the star journey is bright.

But just as Jiang Hudong had a hunch, although Lee Hyori can become a top star, the road may not be smooth. Her life story is legendary, no one can imagine it now, including herself.

And the only person who knows is already in a foreign land on the other side of the ocean.
