◀Part 2: ELF Priorities for 7집►
★ Physical Album Sales
For reasons outside of our control and changes to methods of counting albums, the ability of ELF to easily break records in physical album sales has diminished. But, we can’t let this stop us! It is now our responsibility to show SJ that ELF are still behind them. To do this, our goal is simple:
Make 7jib break 500,000 albums sold.
This puts us at the level of their best-selling album to date, Mr. Simple, and shows SJ and SM that ELF are still here at the same strength we’ve always been.
Remember: physical album sales are always top priority for ELF. This is still true.
★ Digital Sales
Super Junior and ELF have always struggled a bit with digital sales due to limitations on international fans. This year, we are attempting to use our energy more efficiently, first to help SJ on Korean digital charts by focusing our effort on Soribada English, then to have all fans who wish to purchase digitally for themselves to use iTunes. Please see the FAQ about using iTunes.
Our goals are therefore:
Soribada English support
Infiltrate Billboard charts via iTunes
◀︎Part 3: Information on How to Support►
Note: we understand not all ELF will be able to help in all these areas, especially when it comes to finances. This list contains all options for support, ELF should just choose as many options as they are able.
★ Online Purchasing
There are three ways you should be aware of in order to make purchases online.
Credit card
Paypal (recommended) [tutorial]
Bank transfer (usually only useful if joining a bulk order)
★ Physical Album
Check if a local fansite is doing bulk orders [list]
If you are in Korea, buy from a big Synnara Records store or Kyobo bookstore — small shops do not count toward Hanteo, so avoid these!
Order online at a shop that counts toward Hanteo:
DVD Heaven | Synnara | YesAsia | KpopTown | Leesmusic
★ Digital Single
Soribada is the only site accessible to international fans. Tutorials for information on how to register & buy the title track: [register] [buy]
Music portals that count toward K-charts:
MelOn | Mnet | Soribada | Olleh | Bugs
★ Digital Streaming
International fans can help with streaming 1min previews of the title track through the Korean digital music portals (we are still trying to verify if this will count, or if there is an alternative). To do this, you need to register on the site.
Tutorials for how to register: [MelOn - Mnet - Soribada - Olleh]
Tutorials for streaming: [MelOn - Mnet - Soribada - Olleh]
General precautions:
Downloading a song and playing it on your device’s exclusive player does not constitute streaming
Search for the song on the site’s player and play through that application
Play the full song, from start to finish (or at least, play full 1min preview)
Do not fast forward, mute, use shuffle, or press replay
To stream again, repeat from Step 2
Log out of the site (or close the app) before midnight KST each day in order for your streaming to be accurately reflected in the charts

★ iTunes
For fans who wish to own a copy of the album immediately after it is released, we recommend using iTunes instead of a local digital portal in your country. iTunes charts are very prestigious, so we can help improve the public perception of Super Junior by making sure these charts are prioritized over the local charts of other countries (except Korea).
If you are comfortable, we suggest buying the album through US iTunes by making an account there. This way your purchase supports SJ on the Billboard charts. See our tutorial to find out more.

How to create an Apple ID [tutorial]
How to purchase the album on iTunes [tutorial]
To purchase from iTunes you can use a credit card, or you can buy an iTunes gift card either online or at a local shop. This is also explained in the tutorial for purchasing.
It is also important to rate and review the album on iTunes, even if you don’t buy it. Positive ratings and reviews demonstrate the popularity of SJ to an international audience.

You may also watch using your own account, but try to use a few different methods to help increase views
Having a Twitter account is the easiest way to help with 7jib support. It allows you to follow fanbases or sites dedicated to 7jib support (like @Target_SJ), so information will be delivered to you right away. It is also the best way to see what the members are up to — they are already tweeting a lot about 7jib, so join in the excitement!
Tweet using official hashtags (to be confirmed). We recommend using English hashtags only since they count for both Korean charts and international charts.
Instructions: English title of song/artist name + link to Youtube official MV or iTunes. Can also include track sharing notations like #nowplaying or #np, along with various terms associated with song such as “song”, “music”, “track”, “listen”
Examples:
#nowplaying #SuperJunior new song #SorrySorry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6QA3m58DQw
#np Super Junior’s new track is great! Must listen! #SorrySorry https://itunes.apple.com/ca/album/ssoli-ssoli-sorry-sorry/id854890243
If in doubt, support the trending efforts of major fanbases.

★ Public Interest
It is possible to generate public interest in Super Junior by raising their profile on various Korean web portals. To do this, simply search keywords related to SJ in the search bar of the different sites.
There are three key times to do this searching that will give the biggest impact, so please try to focus on these times:
When teasers are released
On the comeback day
On music show broadcasting days, especially around the time that SJ is having their stage
Keywords: 슈퍼주니어, title track name
Sites: Naver | Daum | Nate
If you follow @Target_SJ, we will be providing simple links to direct your search so you only need to put minimal effort ^^. All you will need to do is click those links as many times as you can.
★ Other
Our general goal is also to raise Super Junior’s public profile in a positive way. If we can introduce SJ to more people, it means our fandom will grow stronger. Here are a few suggestions for doing this:
Request the title track on radio stations
Suggest the music video be used on TheFineBros “React” videos
Try to make big media personalities aware of the video, like Ellen Degeneres
Participate in Twitter trends that have a positive message about Super Junior
Avoid engaging in negative discussions or arguments as we don’t want Super Junior’s name associated with fanwars
