Girls' Generation's 'THE BEST', which was released on July 23, maintained its #1 spot on the Oricon Daily Album Chart for 12 consecutive days. This translated into clenching the #1 spot on the Oricon Weekly Album Chart for 2 consecutive weeks, and the ladies have become the first Korean group to achieve such a feat.


Regarding the achievement, SM Entertainment stated, "This is the first time that a Korean group has achieved #1 on the Oricon Weekly Album Chart for two weeks straight, and the second time this has been achieved by a Korean artist (group and solo) since BoA with her 3rd Japanese full-length album 'LOVE & HONESTY' in 2004"


Congrats, Girls' Generation!
