The newly debuted song called “Colors ~ Melody and Harmony” has been selected as Hello Kitty’s 35th anniversary theme song, according to translated reports.
Colors was written by Jaejoong and Yoochun and debuted in their very first solo concert at the massive Tokyo Dome.
Fan accounts coming in after Tohoshinki’s (DBSK / TVXQ) first ever solo concert at Tokyo Dome confirm that the 5 member group rocked the house.
Many fans were proud and happy for them, and got a chance to experience all the hard work they put into their performances.
One fan was touched at seeing a ‘sea of red’ in Japan. Red, in this case, is a symbol for Cassiopeia.
Cassiopeia is DBSK’s enormous fan club with almost a million registered members throughout Asia; the red coming from glowing sticks they hold up during DBSK performances.
According to ORICON Style daily rank released on July 1st, Tohoshinki’s 28th Japanese single “Stand by U” has been sold for 94,838.
That number placed Tohoshinki as ORICON daily single chart 2nd after Arashi’s “Everything” which is sold for 135,053 on its first day.
Eventhough for this time Tohoshinki missed to get the number 1 spot in ORICON daily, but to compete in local music shares at the same day with idol group Arashi yet still getting a successful result is not easy.
