BEAST is Third in a Survey for 'Korean Artists Who is Most Likely to Succeed in Japan'




Over the next few months, a representative contingent of Korea’s top idol singers and stars will be crossing the East Sea towards the land of the rising sun in order to try their hand in the increasingly-competitive Japanese music market.

With all these stars heading over to Japan around the same time, one might begin to wonder, who’s really going to be successful?

In a survey conducted by 'Monkey3", a Korean music site, they found that 18% of the total votes from the respondents believe that BEAST is the 3rd artist who is most likely to succeed in Japan.

Netizens have commented, “The way to succeed in Japan is through singing“. And BEAST has more than this to offer.

Recently, they have released the music video of Shock "Japanese Version", which was well received by the Japanese fans.

Last November, they were able to fill up a showcase venue in Tokyo with 10,000 audience. And this happened even without any prior debut.

They are set to launch their first Japanese album next week and start their hallyu journey in the land of the rising sun.

Other Korean artists who appeared in the Monkey3 survey were Lee Seung Gi at No. 1, 2ne1 at No. 2, 2PM came in 4th place, and SECRET and After School came in 5th and 6th places.
