Hoot Achieves Gold Status in Japan

Whoever doubted SNSD could sell 100,00 copies of their Korean repackage album Hoot in Japan in less than a month is in trouble trouble trouble now!!

The chart reveals all…

 

translation from left to right: certification – gold; title – HOOT; artist – SNSD; release date – December 22nd, 2010; label – Universal Music

Congratulations to the girls for another spectacular achievement!! And if you think these results are amazing, just wait until they release their first full Japanese album In addition to gold the other certifications in the Western Album category include platinum and double platinum. If the success of Hoot is any indication, I foresee RIAJ having to come up with a new certification that goes beyond nine double platinum, just for SNSD. I think ‘Pastel Rose (Quartz)’ might do them justice. What do you guys think?

*Psst…Pastel Rose Pink is the official fan club color ^^
