The beautiful ballad Bolero, the title soundtrack to the upcoming movie Subaru, also contains two other songs written by TVXQ members “Micky” Yoochun and “Youngwoong” Jaejoong.

The upbeat, feel-good song Kiss the Baby Sky was penned by Yoochun and the deep, heart-wrenching ballad Wasurenaide (Don’t Forget) was written by Jaejoong.

A few days ago, news broke that Bolero was #1 on the Oricon Daily chart. After seeing the sales figures for that day, many had already concluded that the single would be #1 for the week.

Tohoshinki are the first Korean artists to have 5 #1 songs on the Japanese weekly charts. They are the first non-Japanese artists to obtain that feat as well.

(Note: Oricon is like the Billboard charts in America in terms of importance to the Japanese music industry)
