The Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) has announced its latest batch of official certifications!
In 2020, the RIAJ implemented a new certification system for online streaming of songs, as an addition to its pre-existing certification systems for physical album shipments and digital download sales. According to the new system, songs are certified silver once they reach 30 million streams, gold at 50 million streams, and platinum at 100 million streams.
Four groups earned official gold certifications for Korean songs this month. Stray Kids’ 2019 hit “MIROH,” NewJeans’ 2023 track “New Jeans,” ENHYPEN’s 2021 song “Drunk-Dazed,” and SEVENTEEN’s 2015 classic “Mansae” were all certified gold after surpassing 50 million streams each in Japan.
Congratulations to all of the artists!
