With the release of 2PM's new Japanese single, they received another number one on the Oricon Charts.
On October 16, as stated by Japan's Oricon Charts, 2PM's seventh Japanese single titled, "Winter Games" retailed 65,696 copies on the day of its release, making it the number one spot on the Daily Single Chart.
The track, "Winter Games," is a song that allows the sorrow of love be felt from the six men. On their Japanese fan meeting, the group performed and received great response, making its way to the number one place on the ringtone chart of Recochoku a day before the release.
JYP Entertainment, 2PM's agency, explained that their wide album promotion in subways, record shops, signboards, panels was an outlet in making "Winter Games" popular.
Laterally with "Hate U" and "Tired of Waiting," "Winter Games" was produced by Super Changddai, making it even more significant that a song produced by a foreign songwriter makes it to the top spot.
2PM will be returning to Korea on October 17 after they are done promoting "Winter Games" in Japan.
