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.
TREASURE earned a triple platinum certification this month for selling over 750,000 copies of their special mini album “PLEASURE.”
NMIXX’s “Fe3O4: FORWARD,” THE BOYZ’s “Unexpected,” LE SSERAFIM’s “HOT,” and BLACKPINK’s Jennie’s “Ruby” were all certified double platinum for selling over 500,000 copies each.
ITZY’s Yeji’s solo mini album “AIR,” SEVENTEEN’s HxW (Hoshi x Woozi)’s unit single album “BEAM,” and Park Ji Hyeon’s “OCEAN” all received platinum certifications for selling over 250,000 copies each.
In the streaming category, Jannabi’s 2019 hit “for lovers who hesitate” was certified triple platinum after surpassing 300 million streams.
Meanwhile, Younha’s 2022 hit “Event Horizon” was certified double platinum for reaching 200 million streams.
Finally, TWS’s “plot twist,” Lim Young Woong’s “If We Ever Meet Again,” and Christopher’s “Bad” were all certified platinum after hitting 100 million streams each.
Congratulations to all of the artists!
