120130 GIRLS’ GENERATION BREAKS INTO U.S. BILLBOARD CHART!


Following the announcement of some Stateside promotions for “The Boys,” it’s been revealed that Girls’ Generation has made an appearance on the Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart, which includes “the week’s top-selling albums by new or developing acts.”

“The Boys” currently sits at #22 as a debut track for Girls’ Generation. The album is also asterisked for having the greatest airplay and sales gains this week.

In addition to the Heatseekers Albums appearance, “The Boys’ also placed 2nd on Billboard’s World Albums chart. Even without any formal promotions for their album in the U.S., Girls’ Generations is rapidly climbing the charts and gaining recognition.

Although it isn’t an appearance on the main chart for Billboard, breaking out into any of the charts is a feat worthy of recognition. Other than when SM Town came to New York City and sold out Madison Square Garden, along with an exclusive interview for MTV K, the girls haven’t done many promotions for their U.S. debut album. With these accomplishments and a unexpected slew of promotions in the United States coming up this week, U.S. SONE’s have a lot to look forward to and cheer about.
