2PM, enters U.S. Billboard world chart at 13th place
QUOTE
Male group 2PM enters the U.S. Billboard charts.
Popular group 2PM, with their newest album entered the U.S. Billboard chart at 13th place on the 1st of this month. The Billboard chart combines record sales, music downloads, etc and is the world's most fair and prestigious music chart. 2PM has not officially sold albums or done showcases and other activities in the United States yet, but has already gotten such a good result from record sales and music downloads. Being on the same chart as Daniel O'Donnell, Irish group Celtic Thunder, and more really makes one surprised.
In the past, 2PM has also been at the top in Japan's Oricon chart for music and DVD presales, and Taiwan's biggest music charts, 5music, g-music, etc. Additionally, their title song 'I'll Be Back' MV has already passed 2 million hits on youtube. They are incredibly popular in many Asian countries, but entering the U.S. music chart has come at a great surprise.
2PM's company, JYP Entertainment's representatives have expressed: "We really could not have guessed this result, so we are very surprised and happy. From now on 2PM will display even better sides of them to everyone and will work their hardest."
