BEST-SELLING C-POP RELEASES
EXO continues to dominate the C-pop charts in the first half of 2014, filling a whopping four spots in the top ten bestsellers list with their latest album Overdose leading the pack. Coming in at number two is EXO's senior labelmate Super Junior M with Swing. Canto-pop veterans also have a strong showing with Sandy Lam's album Re: Workz slotting right after the SM youngsters, followed by fellow diva Sammi Cheng. Longtime mainstays Alan Tam, Hacken Lee, Priscilla Chan and Denise Ho round out the top ten.
BEST-SELLING J-POP RELEASES
Super Junior once again shows their appeal as Dong Hae and Eun Hyuk's Japanese album Ride Me – the only Super Junior-related Japanese CD release this year so far – topped our J-pop bestseller list for the first half of 2014. However, Arashi is the overall winner, occupying four out of ten spots on the chart. Like last year, the girls' side is represented by AKB48 and T-ara, with Girls' Generation joining in at eighth place.

EXO picked up where they left off last year with their album Overdose narrowly edging out Girls' Generation's Mr. Mr. for first place. EXO's First Box is also the only video release to make the K-pop bestsellers shortlist. B.A.P, 2NE1, TVXQ and CNBLUE are still top-selling favorites, but there are some hot new contenders leaping into the big leagues – GOT7 grabbed third place with their debut album, and BTS and Topp Dogg have broken into the top ten.
