Despite the current controversy between the girls of KARA and DSP Media, it is indisputable that the group has achieved great success during their Japan promotions, receiving praise from various Japanese celebrities and ranking on Oricon's Top 10 DVD Weekly Chart.



Since the group's issues with DSP Media were revealed on January 19, KARA's sales in Japan have risen. Most recently, their hit songs "Jumping" and "Mister" have received acclaim.


According to the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ), the association responsible for certifying gold and platinum albums and singles in Japan, "Mister" has achieved double platinum under the category "Chaku-Uta", Japan's master ringtone download service. This double platinum certification designates "Mister" as a master ringtone that has exceeded 500,000 sales.



"Jumping" has reached platinum certification--250,000 sales--for "Chaku-Uta Full", the download of full-length songs to mobile phones. "Mister" has also received a double platinum for "Chaku-Uta Full".
