Not really, The only western artists to cross 3 million sales with a single were LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem and Maroon 5/XTina's Moves Like Jagger IIRC.
Let me get some sales
LMFAO Party Rock Anthem 3757552 (#10 best selling song of all time in Korea)
Maroon 5 Moves Like Jagger 4542613 (#2 best selling song of all time in Korea)
Maroon 5 One More Night 1981371
Maroon 5 Payphone 2333252
Carly Rae Jepsen Call Me Maybe 1600413
These are the only western songs I tracked sales
(and I only tracked while they were in the overall top 200, they can still be found selling 10K- weekly in the international chart)
And Maroon 5 is BY FAR the biggest western artist in Korea.
