I'm shocked that E-girls is making more money than Morning Musume dammit.
If we do have a MM album released this year I hope we can get it up to 100k.

Less than an hour after the release of their debut music video ‘Happiness‘, the new girl group from Korea’s SM entertainment Red Velvet began catching grief for featuring what is being described as “anti-Japanese imagery”.
The video contains a distinctive combination of live action and animation, making heavy use of digital collage. The anti-Japanese commotion stems from the old American WWII newspapers that are spread out in the background with headlines reading “Japs Hit by Atomic Bomb“, “Allies tells Japs Hiroito must obey our command” and “Bomb Blasts Hiroshima: States Secret Weapon“. Only for a second is the footage shown.

SM Entertainment has stated that they are working hard to fix the insensitive newspaper articles in the ‘Happiness’ music video. They claim the director used random pictures he found (that just happened to all be about the same topic).

Though their album is still being sold as donuts. Though on the other hand, since I became a fan (a bit after Headbanger's release), it's been 2 years already with only 2 releases , I agree that their production is incredibly good but that's perhaps too slow.
