Oooh Junsu! Junsu is HOT on the Oricon (Japan) charts with Intoxication. The single flirted with the 200,000 mark in its first week of release. The sexy song and sexier video was met with both surprise and delight by fans in Japan leading to 195,000 copies sold. Some entire albums in the US don’t sell that much in their debut week.

Check out this report from Oricon Style about the news:

It sold around 195,000 copies by the first week, a new record for 2010 for a solo single (Yuusuke’s “Lion”, released in March, sold about 92000 copies.)
