[News] KARA becomes 1st foreign artist to top two Oricon Charts

Hallyu girl group KARA continue to sweep overwhelming popularity in Japan, adding up another feat to their impressive list of achievements in the country.

According to Oricon on March 6th, KARA became the first foreign artist in the history to place in first on two of Japan's Oricon charts. The group’s DVD, Blu-ray disk, "KARA Best Clips II & Shows" topped Oricon’s DVD and Blu-ray charts at the same time.

This makes KARA the first foreign artists to place atop two charts at once and the fifth after Japanese singers Amuro Namie, AKB48, Mr. Children and RADWIMPS.

KARA’s first DVD "KARA Best Clips" also previously topped the DVD chart when it was released last year, meaning all of the DVDs in the series managed to top an Oricon Chart.

"KARA Best Clips II & Shows" contains the music video of "Jet Coaster Love", the group’s first no. 1 single in Japan, and clips from their fan meeting at the Yokohama Arena last August. Sharing is sexy
