New Jeans and LE SSERAFIM

Celebrate as the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) unveils its latest round of official certifications!

In a digital age where streaming reigns supreme, the RIAJ introduced a brand-new certification system in 2020 specifically for online song streaming. This system complements their existing certification methods for physical album shipments and digital download sales. According to this fresh system, songs earn a silver certification upon hitting 30 million streams, turn to gold at 50 million streams, and reach platinum glory at a whopping 100 million streams.

In the recent certification reveal by RIAJ, it’s a momentous occasion for LE SSERAFIM and NewJeans as they both receive their first-ever platinum certifications for streaming—talk about an electrifying achievement! What’s even more remarkable is that both rookie girl groups accomplished this feat with their Korean tracks. LE SSERAFIM’s captivating tune “ANTIFRAGILE” and NewJeans’ enchanting track “Ditto” have now crossed the incredible threshold of 100 million streams each in Japan.

But that’s not all! NewJeans has an extra reason to celebrate as they also snatch a shiny gold certification for their sensational debut song “Attention.” With over 50 million streams in Japan, it’s safe to say they have indeed captured the attention of music lovers.

Joining the party, we have aespa making their mark with their first-ever gold streaming certification for the sizzling track “Savage.” The fiery energy of this song has resonated with fans, and its success is now officially recognized.
