That's another story. Japan has a tradition to like male groups like KAT-TUN and SMAP despite their music qualities. That's absolutely normal for them to get good sale figures. They're popular because of their appearances (mainly),and to make it simple, it's just a "tradition". We need not to pay much attention to them when we're taking about "real music", they're NOT lying in same 'area' of ayu or other "utahime".
