ZE:A's Japanese version of their new single "Phoenix", released on August 24th,�has ranked number two on the Oricon daily chart!

Star Empire stated, "There is�a difference of about 500 albums sold�between Z:EA and girl group AKB48, who placed number one. Therefore, if ZE:A were to start promotions in Japan, they may be able to take the number one spot."

Leader Junyoung also expressed his own thoughts stating, "We hope the good results in Japan will continue on over to our Korean promotions as well. All of the members were so glad when�we gained more fans�through the promotions of 'Aftermath'. We will pay back our fans with 'Phoenix', which we have worked hard on."

ZE:A will return to Korea on the 28th to begin their domestic "Phoenix" promotions.
