[NEWS] U-Kiss enters Oricon Top 5 chart with new EP


Group U-Kiss recently ranked fifth on the Japanese Oricon chart.

The group’s third Japanese EP Dear My Friend was released on July 25 and ranked fifth on the Oricon chart on the first day of its release.

Since Japanese national groups EXILE and AAA also released their new EPs on the same day, the result is a lot more meaningful to U-Kiss.

Their new EP includes the title song “Dear My Friend,” “Beautiful,” and the live version of “Believe.” A music video for the title song features members living their everyday lives and it drew a lot of attention even before it was released.

Their agency says, “U-Kiss is working with Avex, one of the best Japanese agencies, following a star marketing plan. They have made TVXQ and BoA successful in Japan and U-Kiss is also selected as the most promising artist in Japan as a Hallyu star.”

U-Kiss will hold their last concert of their Japanese tour in Tokyo. They will hold their exclusive concert on September 5 at Budokan and return to performing in Korea in mid-September.

[NEWS] U-Kiss eyes local comeback in mid-September


Seven-member boy band U-Kiss is eyeing their return to the local music scene in two months. 

"The members have been working on a new album which we are aiming to drop around mid-September," an official with their agency NH Media told the magazine in a phone interview today. 

When asked about their forthcoming concept and format of the album, the NH rep said, "Everything is under wraps right now and we will start to release hints once the date comes closer." 

The group’s last release in the country was their special mini-album "The Special to KissMe” dropped in June, and they promoted the title track “Believe” ahead of their activities in Japan. 

Meanwhile, U-Kiss is concurrently staying in Japan for their first Japanese tour "A Shared Dream," which kicked off its 25-day run on July 5. After wrapping up the tour, the boys will perform at Japan's "a-nation stadium fest" alongside popular artists from Asia.

U-Kiss' third Japanese single “Dear My Friend,” which was released yesterday, managed to rank at No. 5 on the prestigious Oricon daily singles chart right after its release. 

Additionally, U-Kiss is scheduled roll out their fourth Japanese single “One of You” and open a concert at the coveted Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, which will both be held on September 5.

It was a big week for U-Kiss as they not only released their new Japanese single, "Dear My Friend," but also held a very successful fan meet with over 8,000 people.

The fan meet was held in celebration of this release. Held in Lazona in Kawasaki, the event was a huge success as the crowd of 8,000 gathered at the venue at the crack of dawn to wait for U-Kiss. For this event, U-Kiss held a special Q&A corner. After the fun times, the group took the stage and performed their song "Dear My Friend," the ending song for the anime "Arashi no yoru ni~Himitsu no tomodachi," as well as their second single, "Forbidden Love." Their performances were high energy and intense. At the end of the day, there were about 6,500 fans who attended the high touch event to create summer memories with U-Kiss.

Soohyun said, "Even though the weather was bad, seeing so many fans here for us really moved me. As a group, U-KISS hopes to always be close to our fans. Being able to partake in such an event really makes me happy. Next week, we will be continuing with our promotions in Sapporo, Niigata, and NHK Hall in Tokyo. I can't wait to see you all again. Thank you, as always!"

[NEWS] U-KISS sells out 80,000 seats for their Japan tour and places 5th on Oricon Daily Chart



Back in June, U-KISS wrapped up their activities in Korea and began to focus on their Japanese promotions. It seems that their efforts have paid off as they have sold out 80,000 seats for their Japan tour!

After having earned a high rank on the Oricon charts with their album ‘A Shared Dream’ back in March, this marks the group’s most recent accomplishment in Japan. Although U-KISS still trails behind other internationally successful idols such as TVXQ, it looks as if they are receiving attention as Hallyu stars on their own, as the anticipation for U-KISS’s future activities is increasing.

Throughout the month of July, U-KISS will be performing a total of 16 concerts in 9 cities, which will include Osaka, Fukuoka, Sapporo, and Tokyo. On the 28th and 29th, they will be concluding their tour at Tokyo’s NHK Hall.

In other news, on the 25th, U-KISS’s third Japanese single, “Dear My Friend”, became available for sale and placed 5th on the Oricon Daily Chart.

As for the group’s future activities, on September 5th, U-KISS will give a performance in the highly esteemed Nippon Budokan before returning to Korea in the middle of the month.
