Yoon Hyung Bin jokes that his insults may have helped increase TVXQ's album sales

Posted by kdramacrazy1 pt Thursday, June 23, 2011

Comedian Yoon Hyung Bin (more commonly known as 'Wang Biho') revealed on the latest episode of "Strong Heart" that he may have increased album sales for TVXQ after making a comment about their fanclub, 'Cassiopeia'. 'Wang Biho' took a jab at the TVXQ fanclub during 'Gag Concert', which resulted in his mini-homepage being bombarded by furious fans. Yoon Hyung Bin explained,

"When I mentioned TVXQ, people threw some worrisome glances towards me. I said at that time, ' They call their fan club Cassiopeia? Their fan club has 800,000 people in it, but their music records sale was only 100,000!' Usually when I insult celebrities, my mini homepage attracts 20,000 - 30,000 people. But when I insulted TVXQ, my number of visitors rose to 180,000 an hour after the broadcast. My mini-homepage became a field of insults, and as I looked through them, I told myself, 'Ah, so there are insults like these', 'All the world's insults are gathered here', 'Stars inspire star-like insults.' After insulting TVXQ, TVXQ's sold more than 500,000 albums. An article came out mentioning that my insult actually impacted the music sales in a good way."
