SG Wannabe Vol. 3 continues be the top selling album in May. But is it? Where is Shinhwa Vol. 8??? What about Kim Jong Kook Vol. 4?  I don’t know why MIAK did not list these albums but they have a tendency to omit some albums in the past.  Anyway, at least we know there are 2 albums selling over 200,000 copies already in 2006 – SG Wannabe Vol. 3 and Lee Soo Young Vol. 7. Hopefully there will be more in the 2nd half of the year.
