The latest DVD that Avex Entertainment released of JYJ, Memories in 2010, has ranked #1 in sales on HMV, Japan’s premier record shop. HMV is an enormous chain of record stores in Japan, operating out of more than 50 physical locations and also selling online. Because of the large volume of sales that are generated through HMV, its sales charts are often used as measures of commercial success and warrant public confidence. Congratulations to our boys!
Junsu’s DVD of his Concert of his debut musical Mozart, Musical Concert- Levay with Friends, also sold very well, ranking #2. Hats off to our Junsu!
Unfortunately, Avex has refused to put the DVD on the Oricon Charts, saying that to do so would be to “promote” JYJ and that it does not wish to promote JYJ whatsoever.

Question: Is HMV a popular and important chart?
I think it’s pretty important since they are one of the major record shops in Japan so their sales may reflect the rest of the sales in the country, or it won’t differ much.
okay that’s good 🙂
Oh, AVEX, you don’t wish to promote them and be linked to these gangsters (as you have very publicly claimed) but you certainly have no problem raking in money under THEIR name. Hypocrisy at its finest indeed.
with SM.. bunch of hypocrites and greedy users..
Well-said!!! AVEX’s excuses are uber ridiculous.
OOO…still want to make money from our boys but dont want to promote JYJ.. AVEX you face soooo thick!!!!
AVEX you well surely regret abandoning JYJ cowardly to appease SM.
JYJ WILL COME BACK TO JAPAN AND SHOW YOUR WHAT YOU MISSED OUT ON!!!!!
MARK MY FUCKING WORD!!!!
I really don’t get the logic. By selling it they are still promoting JYJ. If they intend not to promote JYJ then why are they still selling their products.
they dont want people to know that JYJ could top Oricon without promotions.. It’ll tramp SNSD, DBSK2, SJ, Kara and all other KPOP releases who are spending tons of money with promotions.. but hey .. their squeezing last drop of money from the three like soulless vampires before their contract ends.. they can’t promote the 3 because they already had the deal with SM so they are just trying to earn part of what they could earn if there were no conflicts..
Well said! Refuse to promote, but still have their hands in JYJ’s pockets-Can u believe this! Avex=Hypocrisy!
Amen to that~! You spoke my mind bb~
Totally agree!
Because they are the greedy money hungry gangsters. Like SM, they think they are above everyone and so they do whatever they want. The sad thing about it is they get away with it. No consequences.
Simple, an Ojay’s tune…Money, money, money, money,…. money.
Just goes to show that real and pure talent (not to mention selling power) can never be cockblocked. What’s the matter AVEX/SM, afraid JYJ will outshine your latest products?
my babies better be getting some money outta of this!!
avex can burn for all i care :p
Congrats to JYJ! They can do this even without promotion. 😀
But wait! Is the musical concert dvd out already? Or is it only preorders, or what? *confused*
I dont care about these companies not promoting JYJ CAUSE TRUE TALENT DOESNT NEED IT, with the support and from us fans, they could become an international icon! Besides if this company Avex is profiting from them without promoting them, isnt a law suit in order, I think so!?
JYJ FIGHTING,
I would buy that DVD too, but they don’t have it here T__T
oh well, at least other fans are buying it out fast 😀
AH HA! Avex YOU MAD?
You use them to get money but won’t promote them
HOW BACKWARDS. But they still found some way to shine out of all this. Avex are some lames.
Stay mad!
I am happy with this news ^___^
Now we only need them to do another Tokyo Dome performance and be active in Japan again ^^
Avex you dirty piece of shit!!!
Kept using our boys because you know they can make you tons of money!
Why don’t you come up with stuffs by SM idols?
You greedy b@stards!!!!!!
that’s why i called JYJ as THE REAL IDOLS…the real idol doesn’t need spending tone of money just for promotions because like IDALMA DIMAS said, they have the true talent that even without the promotions, they still can be always number one and that’s the different of idol and the real idol….
and now who is the real greedy ?
A real idol is still an idol — a passive image that is worshipped because the “priests” said it was a good idea.
The difference is between an idol and an artist. The artist reaches out touches the soul. They are followed not because of the press they are getting, but because of what they produce. For reasons that have everything to do with themselves.
That is the bottom line. 🙂
uups… i choose wrong words…sorry about that…..
yeah that’s what i mean….
thanx for the correction….^^
@miaw Thanks for giving me an excuse to post the idol definition. I always hate when JYJ are called idols and I never found the right situation to show why. 🙂
@eliza

@nanatasya
I’m alltid5 on Twitter. But a couple of warnings: I don’t automatically follow back, I like to keep my following list small, and I haven’t been tweeting much lately.
@samvill
Thank you, and *kissu* back. Have a great day.
To add to part of the discussion…it will truly make my day if JYJ’s work manages to outsell ALL the acts combined coming back to AVEX from SME.
Lady Karma, if you are out there listening, this humble fan of JYJ’s is making a request for your personal attention to this matter.

@eliza
it’s okay. I follow whom I want to follow and to be followed back or not is not a big deal for me.
So, I just followed you!
YAY! hats off indeed!
but gawdammit AVEX! can you get any more selfish?!
The craziest thing is that SME is also pulling money out of the DVD!!!
how is sme getting money from it…the contents were made under jyjs other contract with avex that didn’t include sme
No, they aren’t.
avex its all about money.. damn that max matsura… i hateeee him sooo much..
yeah..and to think I used to feel grateful to that scheming bastard! My ultimate dream was for ayumi to take over avex..yeah..never will happen i know.. but still..
i think this will be their final sources of money frm jyj since their contract will expire soon…..
