In any case, AKB 48 only enjoyed success in Japan, unlike the other girl group on the other side of the sea :-

It's quite a while since we last saw Europeans going gaga over Asian Idols.
Yeah, Girl's Generation performed on kouhaku last night for the first time, based on their 2011 success not only in Japan, but also Europe and America it was said.
There is one particluar song which is catch as hell otherwise not too bothered about them but korean groups seem to be doing pretty well.

It's always a mess for the mind to see the lyrics of their songs with a mish mash of korean hangul, japanese characters and randoma ass bits of english too, lol.
