Popular group Shinhwa stood tall as the best singer even in Japan.

Shinhwa released their first Japanese single album “The Sun in Our Hearts” on June 14th last year and released their first official album “Inspiration #1 on August 16th.
Furthermore, they heated up Japan fever last year by holding solo concerts in Budokan Hall in Tokyo, Japan, and Osaka-jo Hall on September 24th and 26th as the part of their Asian Tour.
Shinhwa’s first single album and first official album each placed 9th and 4th on Oricon Chart and recorded a total album sale of over 100,000 albums sold.
Shinhwa made a display of their great influence as the best group in Asia by winning “21st Japan Golden Disk Awards” in which the award winners are decided depending on the amount of album sales as it is the case with Korean Golden Disk Awards.
“Best Asian Artist” Award winner Shinhwa expressed their impression by saying “We are very honored to be given such meaningful award this year after receiving so much love in Japan last year.
Meanwhile, Shinhwa is planning to be very vigorous in individual activities with dramas and solo albums, etc, during the first half of the year, and they are planning to release Shinhwa 9th album during the latter half of the year.
