Let's just think it this way, without Jaejoong Ayu should still get #1 faring the same amount as MOON/blossom.

With Jaejoong, she could possibly get her highest #1 week sales since Mirrorcle World or Days/GREEN. Either way she would still get #1 just that Jaejoong's participation would probably skyrocket the sales and totally secure her #1 weekly.

Jaejoong isn't God & Ayu isn't all that feeble if she's alone.

If this was Avex plan, they would put Toho members on the 2 singles of 2 of their biggest solo starts that are going to be released on that same week, and make the most money of it

That would be big, Ayumi and Koda releasing singles on the same day with Toho members! They would make the most money of their fanbases with the competition, the most money of Toho fangirls and the most money of the competition of the 2 toho members fangirls xD

I wasn't really saying if it was avex's or Ayu's idea, I just said that Rhythm Zone and Ku's management tried it before although they prolly wanted to leech of Ku's popularity and market DBSK back at the time.

I think Kuu's collab with Toho back then not really a success yet probably because Toho back then was still not that POPULAR in Japan if compared to right now...and they just really started to gain the recognition in Japan started from Dome back in 2009~

Yup, that's what I was saying, they tried to use Ku to make them more popular.

I agree with it all. And I think it was a very smart move I hope they don't blame ayu though, kuu had a feat. single with the guys, and so then why ayu couldn't do something with one of them at least??

anyone making a big fuss out of it or saying how ayu is using jaejoong can go and suck on a dirty sock I'm pretty sure this is gonna benefit the boy and help him with his acting career too

yep, i think you're right about that~ benefit for both Kuu and the boys

it's not liked the boys have never used someone to boost their fame up LOL~~~
so everything with this featuring/collaborating thing has benefits for both parties~

Yeah, well I think it was more their management, I mean they debuted in a Triangle lol with BoA and the Trax and BoA was the hottest Korean artist back at the time and then AVEX more or less tried to do the same with LAST ANGEL.

^ True2..
so as Ayu's fans, we shouldn't be so sad bout that..
with Ayu waving their towel at last year's a-nation and this year's as well...
that also helps the boys gain more recognitions...Toho fans are really grateful bout that too
and, all in all, it's also the talents that each artists have that make people love and fall for

^ yes she is still ABLE to get no. 1 without JJ~
but she won't be able to have sales like 100 K for the 1st day sales~
and JJ probably will help her to achieve that amount of sales~
take a note too

I don't see anything wrong with that article. It's the truth face it, her sells will boost as never before mostly because of Jaejoong.
And actually, I don't care if she will become a sort of evil witch who use Jaejoong for her purpose for TOHO fangirls.
I never really cared about sales an positions at all too, but I'd be happy if she will can break Seiko Matsuda's record.
I mean, c'mon guys every fan would be happy for that .

Well this truth didnt hurt me at all. I just thought that Ayu/Avex did a smart move to secure the #1 streak. Lol.
And I love all the JJ fans who helps Ayu in this too.
