Wonder Girls host a special event to celebrate their Japanese debut

To celebrate their first major Japanese release, girl group Wonder Girls hosted a special fan event to showcase their debut single “Nobody” among other performances.

Prior to the event, a press conference was held for the girls to express their excitement to pursue their latest goal in their career; the breakthrough in the Japanese industry.

“We’re so nervous and excited to be promoting in Japan,” exclaimed Yenny, “It’s always exciting to perform in front of a new audience. We hope we can get to know our Japanese fans a lot better, and maybe even have our own concert for our Japanese fans in the near future.”

“I think it’s our first time performing at a venue where we can be this close to our fans,” said Sohee, “We have a lot of songs prepared for you guys, so I hope you will all join in to sing and dance.”

On the topic of Wonder Girls’ sound and performance, Sun answered, “Our music features addictive melodies with fun dance moves that are easy to follow. Our musical aim is to make music that’s not only fun to listen to, but fun to watch as well!”

Meanwhile, the girls released their debut Japanese album ‘Nobody for Everybody‘ on July 25th and managed to rank #7 on the Oricon charts just a day after release. The girls will also be busy preparing for their performances with their labelmates as a part of the upcoming concert, ‘JYP Nation‘ in Korea and Japan.

Wonder Girls’ “Nobody” secures #1 on Japanese chart, Recochoku!

The Japanese version of Wonder Girls‘ hit song “Nobody” has ranked #1 on the CM (TV commercial) and ringtone charts of prominent digital website Recochoku!

Back in April, the Wonder Girls endorsed Kowa‘s body powder ‘Marshpuff Kowa’ via a CM, in which the Japanese version of “Nobody” was used as background music. After having revealed a sneak peek of their single (although their official debut Japanese album will not be released until July), it was decided to make “Nobody” available for download earlier on June 25th. On the same day of its release, the single impressively claimed the number 1 spot on Recochoku’s CM and ringtone Daily charts.

JYP Entertainment commented, “[Even] before the release of the album, the Japanese version of ‘Nobody’, a work of [one of the] original idols the Wonder Girls, gained a lot of interest.“ In regards to the Wonder Girls’ future Japanese promotions, they added, “We ask for your unwavering support for the Wonder Girls who are promoting both domestically and overseas.”

On July 25th, the Wonder Girls will be releasing their first Japanese album ’Nobody for Everybody‘. The group will then follow up with a special event in Tokyo on July 26th for fans who purchase their album. Prior to their promotions in Japan, the Wonder Girls will also hold a solo concert in Seoul.

Wonder Girls release concept images for Japanese ‘Nobody for Everybody’

The Wonder Girls are getting ready for their Japanese debut with their hit track, “Nobody“, off their Japanese album ‘Nobody for Everybody‘. With their album release date slowly approaching, the group has unveiled concept photos on their official Twitter.
