‘The Terminators of Hallyu’ Super Junior has also created a ‘Miinah’ fever in Japan. Super Junior’s fist Japanese single ‘美人(BONAMANA)’ has reached 2nd on the Oricon Weekly Single Chart along with ranking in the Oricon Daily Chart only a week into the release of the single.

Especially, Super Junior did not have any special promotions nor events in Japan, and yet were able to rank 2nd, ranking higher than many Japanese singers such as Acid Black Cherry, AKB48, Kesimaisi (ケツメイシ), FUNKY MONKEY BABYS. The orders placed for this single were over 10,000 copies, setting a record as the first Korean group to reach that high for their first single. Super Junior’s Japanese fans’ interest has been proven. This single was the very first single that Super Junior released in Japan. It has Japanese version of ‘Miinah’ , which was a huge hit all over Asia in 2010.

Also, Super Junior was chosen as the models and singers for the CM song for Japan’s famous convenience store chain ‘Circle K Sunkoos’, captivating many audience all over Japan. Right now, Super Junior is getting ready for the 5th album.
