Kim Hyun Joong’s debut in Japan is taking his popularity in the country even higher.

Kim met with 20,000 of his fans in his Premium Live 2012 concert on February 5 in the Yokohama Arena. The concert came just 12 days after his debut album was released on January 25.

In the concert, Kim performed many of his hits including Kiss Kiss, Lucky Guy and Breakdown, and sat down with his fans to talk about his experiences in Japan.

Thousands of fans lined up in front of the Arena waiting for its doors to open five hours before the event was due to start, and some fans who weren’t able to get tickets appeared with pickets in the hope that they could get last-minute tickets.

Many prominent Japanese media outlets such as Fuji TV, Nihon TV, TV Asahi, Nikkan Sports and Sankei Sports rushed to cover the fans gathered in front of Yokohama Arena to see Kim, and showed their interest in the power of his popularity.

Kim made a successful solo debut in Korea with his first and second solo mini albums and his digital single album, and his success continued with his solo debut in Japan. His debut album ranked in the top 3 of the Oricon chart with its release on January 25 and blew through 100,000 sales in its first week.

Kim Hyun Joong plans to release his follow-up single Lucky Guy on February 6.
