The result also includes the aggregate information of sales record from the international fans. Eventhough it’s only an informal record, however it still proves the special figure of TVXQ as Asia best group. Taking a look to TVXQ history in Korea for the last 5 years, the sales record of TVXQ 4th album ‘MIROTIC’ which broke 500,000 copies definitely stands out. For exact, the 4th album recorded sales for 540,000 copies.

It’s not only that. In total 16 DVDs that are released both in Japan and South Korea, it records total number 774.000 copies sales. If the entire total number of sales are calculated together, it results in 6.000.000 copies sold. While the calculation system is not thoroughly comparing all the album sales charts in Japan as well as considering the South Korea problem occurring, it’s believed that the sales number is likely to exceed 6 million. credit: wing@sportshankook.co.kr source + trans: sharingyoochun.net Shared; MsJaeyai 4Eva.
