TREASURE has officially earned their first-ever RIAJ certification with their second Japanese mini album “THE SECOND STEP : CHAPTER TWO“! The album has sold over 100,000 copies in Japan alone and is now certified gold.

Also earning their first-ever RIAJ album certification is LE SSERAFIM! The group’s debut Japanese single album “FEARLESS” has officially earned a platinum certification with over 250,000 units sold across Japan.

A platinum certification was also given to TXT’s latest release “The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION” for selling over 250,000 copies. While this marks TXT’s third overall album to reach this milestone, “The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION” is now TXT’s first Korean album to go platinum in Japan.
