SNSD (Shoujo Jidai in Japan) is scheduled to release a Japanese version of their popular hit track "Run Devil Run" in Japan. However, it's not going to be an official single like their previous releases. Universal Music Japan recently updated their SNSD news page stating that the Japanese version of "Run Devil Run" will be released as a Chaku-uta or mobile ringtone on January 18th. The song will also be available via digital download on January 25th. Although no official date or word was given for an official single release, fans can assume that a Japanese version of "Run Devil Run" will eventually hit stores sometime in the near future. In addition, the RIAJ has certified SNSD's December 22nd release of 'Hoot' as Gold. For reference, the RIAJ certifies Gold as 100,000 sales.
