TVXQ’s debut album ‘Hug’, which was released in 2004, is seeing a sudden increase in sales.
According to Hanteo Charts, TVXQ’s single ‘Hug’ ranked second on the real time charts on the 17th of February. This album was released on January, 2004 as TVXQ’s debut single and includes the songs ‘Hug’, ‘My Little Princess’ and ‘Oh Holy Night’, a song BoA collaborated in.
How is it that the album, which was released over 7 years ago, has ranked at the top of the charts?
Since their comeback as a duo in January, U-Know Yunho and Choikang Changmin have been actively approaching the public through various programs. As it has been a while since their last period of activity and as TVXQ had mostly been performing overseas before then, they haven’t had many opportunities to approach the public through variety programs like they are now.
It seems that TVXQ is planning to take this comeback as a new turning point for the group and hold activities for a long period of time while appearing on TV programs often. They have already appeared on various music programs, ‘Running Man’, ‘Strong Heart’ and ‘Happy Together’. By doing so, they’ve shown off charms that the public hadn’t seen much of before and have also talked of the scars they’ve received behind the extravagant facade of a star.
Though TVXQ already have a large fandom, their honest confessions on TV have brought in new fans. These new fans are probably curious of the birth of TVXQ, which would explain why ‘Hug’ has shot up on the album sales charts recently.
On the same day, the special edition of TVXQ’s new album ‘Why (Keep Your Head Down)” ranked alongside ‘Hug’ and proved that TVXQ’s popularity has not died down.
