ARTICLE : Mom, Don't you even know Arashi?!

Comments

"it means they are the best of best amongst Japanese singers."

i guess this should be rephrased to "they are the best of best amongst Japanese performers"

the best of the best Japanese singers goes only to Riida coz he's the only guy in the group who can really sing (in Western standards).

Peace out.
wow...a Johnny's Korean company...i dont know what to say o__O
Whatchu talkin about. Nino has a great voice! It's not just Oh-chan XP

But yes, It makes me happy to see this kind of report :)
LOL your prediction at the very top was so true. I was quietly and intensely reading the whole thing and at the end I was like EHH?! XD

But besides that, reading this makes me such a happy Arashi fan *tear tear*

If Johnny's is expanding, it's not that late that they found out they popular in the Western ne?
Whoa! Not only does is praise Arashi, which I love to read about, but Johnny's Korean? Awesome!! Thanks for sharing!
just about all the songs they debut reach 1st place on the Oricon charts.

how about kinki kids XDDD

yay arashi for being praise
they're the best afterall XDDD
Uwaaa, I'm so so proud! T^T <3333

Power to Arashi! Yeah!

SM vs Johnny's Korean Company...Oh, hell. I don't even want to know the shit that's going to go down between these companies.

this kind of news really made me feel so proud of them! ^^
Sorry, but the entire article made me go "...?" xD
All their songs reached 1? I wasn't informed of it. And that's something I appreciate in Arashi because it's not like they were always the best of the best in all the charts they've been in. They weren't. Differently of some others JE groups that are used to it since debut.
And that's the point when we stop and say that it's true they are growing, and I'm SO happy about it and to be part of it.
Plus? Johnny's korean? o_________o for the love of god
lol ...although not all the info were accurate...I am still proud because they're simply the best!!!
it said "just about all" not all x:

very interesting; thanks for sharing. I think these guys are quite talented.

Uwa~ So happy and sad at the same time.. Really happy that Arashi is now known in a lot pf places.. They do improved and matured a lot compared from how they started.. Sad.. Because.. Johnny still haven't reached Philippines.. Lolz! Chotto.. JE in Korea?! -Thinks- Eh?!
OMG, so awesome!! I'm not a Korean fan, but this makes me so happy!!

Actually, this article makes me wonder, I know of those Korean bands that are trying to make their way into the Japanese entertainment world but other than Arashi, who else from Japan are at least known in Korea too?

i think out of the japanese IDOL groups arashi is probably most popular but that doesn't mean other groups aren't know. but people like hyde? gakt? i think miyavi? (i forget who held concerts in korea b ut i think those 2 might be it) x: i know winds has a strong following (of course not like arashi though x:) but yea. i guess korea and japan both want a piece of the other country x:
OMG REALLY!



EH?! GOSH ARASHI IS SO POPULAR IN KOREA?! wow didnt expect that popularity to be SO HIGH!

It is always easier for ROCK bands to venture out to other countries and be accepted than for an IDOL bands. That is why Johnny's have to pick countries where they are at least confirm of the following there. The rest of the world have to keep reminding them that they do have fans there too - just not as much yet.

With that said... COME HERE LAH ARASHI! XD

what's with arashi huh? *everything!!* LOL
omgoodness!! [jealous!] but woww. their rise in popularity isnt surprising, but the figures are still astounding!
Wow..I'm so proud being an Arashi fan x
Still hoping Arashi could perform in other countries as well T_T
This is quite amazing. Tickets sold out in such little time. But it must also be quite frustrating for Korean fans ^_^;;;
As for a Johnny's branch in Korea...Is it really possible? I'm having a hard time believing this ^_^;; Would Korean news have the exclusive of announcing this before the Jimusho itself said anything?

Well, I'm guessing with a Korean office it should be easier for the other groups to wander off on Asian tours as well ^__^ *has GOT to move to east Asia ><*

btw, been wanting to say this for a while. It's nice seeing you back ^__^ maybe you were posting only locked posts for a few months, that's why I couldn't read anything. But, it's really nice seeing you update often now ^___^ I know this feeling is weird, since I didn't visit often, but it's there ^_^
I guess it's a little late, but.. okaeri~
[this is good]
Will they have enough time to do more outside country activities? My friend who is TVXQ fan said that they seems don't want to go back to Korea. Japan has the biggest market for music industry in Asia.....

ARASHI is so AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! It makes me so happy to hear about the boys getting so big now. I´ll love them to see them here in Latinamerica because they have a lot of fans.

Arigatou for the article!

altho, some part of the article werent true...but I do proud of them ne and if it true then im so happy for Korean fans ^^
JOHNNY"S KOREAN???
uhmmmm......how about Johnny's USA then ......LOL
high five on that!
[this is good]
When i read this i could not believe it! After reading, i called my Korean friend (who had just recently returned from Korea). Until then i had never mentioned my love for Arashi and the very second i said the name she stared to scream and i was like.... O_O.......

....umm...sorry but this article REALLY made me go like.."what the heck?!"..
I mean, I REALLY LOVE Arashi, ok? But...I definitely would not call them "the best of best among Japanese singers"...I guess, I kind of agree with Chin in that they should be considered best among the best of JAPANESE PERFORMERS....

I mean, I know fans don't normally criticize their own fandom, but that are SO many singers out there who Arashi can not even compare to in terms of singing....well, Ohno can...but the rest...(don't take me wrong here, I mean, Nino is my ichiban and I LOVE his voice...but I don't think it can be compared to real musicians, that's all.) Hope no one's offended by this, that wasn't my intention. This is just what I think.
i think that's merely a misunderstanding.
they use the word "가수" which is kashu in japanese which means singer
but they use the word loosely.
i dont think they literally mean "singer" but probably 'group'
but essentially arashi debuted as a singing group so essentially that's what we would label them as.
[いいですね]
Lol.

I wish my mom knows 'em.
.....ARASHI GO>>>>...create more storm all ovet tthe world...we will support you all the way....
