Asia's hottest idol group Super Junior set a new record, becoming the top artist to sell the most albums over the past 3 years. The '2011 Singer Awards' reflects the artists that sold the most albums according to sales data from Hanteo, and Super Junior sold 355,900 albums between January 1st, 2011 and December 27th, 2011. Super Junior's cumulative album sales (of all 32 singles and albums they've released to date) for 2011 amounted to 350,000 units. This was the highest number of sales since the 'Singer Awards' were established back in 2009. Seo Taiji boasted 248,800 units in 2009, while Girls' Generation set a new record last year by moving 309,400 units. Super Junior's full length album 'Mr.Simple' was a big factor that contributed to their impressive sales numbers. 'Mr Simple' Type A alone sold 199,300 copies while Type B sold 53,500 copies and their repackaged album sold 73,900 copies. All together, their fifth album alone sold 326,800 units. Behind Super Junior was TVXQ who sold 230,000 units and Girls' Generation who sold 226,700 units. The two names that stood out on the list, however, were INFINITE and IU. The boys of INFINITE came in at 7th place selling 124,100 units while singer IU was the only soloist to break the top 10, selling 92,900 units at #9. Hanteo charts calculates the data by collecting 85% of their information from nationwide music sales and 15% from accumulations in their own information database along with national sale estimates.
