[purple1princess]

This year with the album "Miina" Korean idol group Super Junior (abbreviated SJ) were the most popular Asian singers for the second consecutive year in Taiwan.  Across the whole of Taiwan 57,000 copies were sold, which makes the beautiful girls of the Wonder Girls and SNSD etc bow their heads, while the Japanese singer Ayumi Hamasaki defeated Namie Amuro to take out top spot, but the sales volume for both these singers did not breakthrough 10,000 in Taiwan.

SJ's "Miina" sold 7,000 more copies that the Wonder Girls, third place for Korean album sales was the OST for the drama "You're Beautiful", which was an unexpected winner.
