GIRLS’ GENERATION TAETISEO HAS DEBUTED ON BILLBOARD’S 200!

On May 3rd, Billboard published the new weekly charts for the U.S. Billboard 200. On this chart, Taetiseo’s ‘Twinkle‘ charted at number 126. This record is significant in that the Billboard 200 is known as the definitive chart for album sales in the United States.



This accomplishment is impressive as Taetiseo is a Korean language album and besides a release on iTunes, they didn’t have any official promotions in the United States. This is the second time a Korean language album has been listed on Billboard’s 200, Big Bang also accomplished this feat back in March with ‘Alive‘.


Taetiseo’s ‘Twinkle’ also appeared as #1 on the World Album, #2 on the Heatseeker, and #21 on the Independent Album charts respectively.
