Super Junior is well on their way to becoming the artist with the 'most sold albums' for their 3rd consecutive year! On December 13th, the Gaon Chart announced that Super Junior's "Mr. Simple" album, which was released back in August, has sold a total of 339,707 copies through November, placing them at the top of this year's album sales. Coming in second place is SNSD's October release, "The Boys", which has sold 293,042 copies through November. At this time, there is a 46,665 difference with Super Junior. With less than a month to go until the year's end, analysts have determined that because of the big gap, Super Junior is practically guaranteed to take home the crown this year. The boys have held onto the title for the past two years, with "Bonamana" selling 200,193 copies in 2010, and "Sorry Sorry" winning the 'Golden Disk Daesang' in 2009, an award given only to the top album sales of the year. Many believe that Super Junior's distinct musical style, which has been labeled as 'SJ Funky' by SM Entertainment music director Yoo Young Jin, is a factor behind their success. This combined with the members' activities in acting and MCing have created a powerful public presence that launched them to the top each year. One representative commented, "As the digital market continues to expand, Super Junior managed to show their power by dominating the album sales market for three years in a row. They shed all ideas of mystery and worked hard to get friendly with the public through mediums like variety shows, and that's one of the key factors to their popularity."
