Circle Chart (formerly known as Gaon Chart) has announced its latest batch of official certifications!
In 2018, the Korea Music Content Industry Association implemented a new certification system for album sales, song downloads, and online streaming. Starting with music released on or after January 1, 2018, Circle Chart now certifies albums platinum once they reach 250,000 sales, while albums that have sold a million copies or more receive a “million” certification.
This month, SEVENTEEN’s 2022 studio album “Face the Sun” earned a quadruple million certification for over 4 million copies sold since its release two years ago.
SEVENTEEN’s Jeonghan x Wonwoo also earned two separate Circle certifications for their unit debut single album “THIS MAN.” The regular version of the single album received a double platinum certification for over 500,000 copies sold, while the Weverse version was certified platinum for selling over 250,000 copies.
Meanwhile, RIIZE’s first mini album “RIIZING” was certified triple platinum for over 750,000 copies sold since its release in June.
NewJeans earned two separate Circle certifications this month: their Japanese single album “Supernatural” was certified triple platinum for selling over 750,000 copies, and their 2023 smash hit “Super Shy” was certified platinum in the streaming category after surpassing 100 million streams.
TWS’s new mini album “SUMMER BEAT!” also received a double platinum certification for over 500,000 copies sold.
Finally, both TWICE’s Nayeon’s new solo mini album “NA” and WayV’s latest mini album “Give Me That” were certified platinum after selling over 250,000 copies each.
Congratulations to all of the artists!
