NewJeans And TWICE Earn Double Platinum And Gold Certifications For Streaming In Japan

Apr 23, 2024

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.

In the RIAJ’s newly announced batch of certifications, both TWICE and NewJeans earned double platinum certifications for streaming. NewJeans’ 2022 hit “Ditto” became their first song ever to go double platinum in Japan after surpassing 200 million streams.
