SHINee ranked 2nd on the Oricon single chart with their Japanese debut single.

SHINee’s Japanese debut single ‘Replay – 君は僕の everything (너는 나의 모든 것)’ ranked 2nd on the Oricon single chart on the day of its release(June 22) and it’s increasing expectation for their activity in Japan.

Especially, even though SHINee’s first single ‘Replay – 君は僕の everything (너는 나의 모든 것),’ is a debut ‘single,’ over 120,000 copies were produced for distribution in Japan. This is expected to only increase sales.

Also, the Oricon news published a special article on K-pop and introduced SHINee’s debut single by writing that “SHINee has been continuously expanding the fan base since their debut in 2008 and became a giant group with an absolute popularity in many Asian countries as a face of K-POP.” This article made people realize the high interest in SHINee.

In addition, SHINee had ‘JAPAN DEBUT PREMIUM RECEPTION in LONDON’ at Abbey Road Studios on 19th and aroused their audience to enthusiasm. SHINee will have ‘SHINee JAPAN DEBUT PREMIUM RECEPTION TOUR’ by touring cities in Japan such as Fukuoka (July 22), Kobe (July 23), Tokyo (July 27,28), Sapporo (August 8) and Nagoya (August 11).

Meanwhile, SHINee is planning to give great performance by attending “MTV Music Video Awards Japan(VMAJ)” which will be held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan on June 25th.

[Interview] SHINee Talk on TV Guide Magazine.

Onew: Finally we debut in Japan! I want to show our cool performances to all.

Taemin: We should be well-prepared to do so! I hope you look forward to it as we try to show perfect performances.

Key: Our debut song “Replay – you are my everything” is a Japanese version of our Korean debut song. I’m nervous how Japanese fans will think of it.

Jonghyun: There is this part, “She doesn’t know my true feelings~,” in the lyrics. It is my favorite part. It expresses the song’ s theme fully.

Key: I like that part too. It’s a totally “moving (in Japanese)” point (laugh). The M/V shows a story of five of us in love with the same girl…What if that really happens!?

Onew: Eh!? But our favorite types are different, so it won’t happen (laugh)!!

Jonghyun: If so, how would you appeal your charm? As for me, maybe frankness? But I’m not good at appealing to a girl I like. If I’d try to, I’d probably say, “I’ll sing a song for you”…

Key: Me too. Maybe frankness. I want to show the way I am to a girl I like as I do to my friends.

Minho: “Being sincere and sometimes playful” is maybe my charm (shy). And…being competitive? To a girl I like, I want to be by her side when she has some trouble.

Onew: I think my appeal point is “being friendly.” To a girl I like, I think I’ll try to strike up a conversation.

Taemin: Hmm, my strong point is maybe “working hard for whatever”? So to a girl I like, I will work hard to make her happy!

Key: Oh My God (laugh)!

Jonghyun: If I have to compete with Taemin, I’ll just give up (laugh).

Onew: (laugh) We are debuting in Japan. Do you have any memories of your birthday related to our debut?

Jonghyun: I remember everything about my birthday parties I celebrated with fans. Especially this year’s birthday party was an opportunity I was able to talk with fans after a 3~4 month term because of my leg injury.

Minho: When I turned 20, I got on a plane the day before my birthday. But when I arrived in Korea, it was the day after my birthday because of time difference. I realized how precious a birthday is! I’ll try to remember all your birthdays!!
