Date of Release: July 13, 2010
The shipping date may change according to the conditions of the distributor.
Shot to No.1 the day of pre-order release on Hanteo!!
NOTES
- For vendors whose album sales count towards Hanteo, all numbers will be submitted to those charts irrespective of the order confirmation number (which means if you buy three, it will count as three).
- For sites that are offering posters along with the EP, two posters will be in one single case and will be shipped to all the pre-orderers.
Many of you have expressed a desire to help support Jay in every way possible, including in helping boost his chart numbers. So hopefully this guide will help. It will be updated as we get feedback and more information. Here is a list and comparison of sites where you can purchase Jay’s EP. Tutorials for purchasing from AladdinUS and Yes24 are included as well.
ADDITIONAL INFO
The Hanteo charts are generally considered the more established and influential charts which count album sales in Korea, primarily taking into consideration domestic vendors. Their sales numbers are updated every five minutes. The Music Industry Association of Korea’s Gaon charts also calculate album sales and include sales from both Korean and international vendors. The Gaon charts are updated weekly and thus, less frequently.
