In RIAJ’s latest batch of certifications, SEVENTEEN has made two separate achievements. The group’s ninth mini album “Attacca” is now certified RIAJ double platinum after surpassing 500,000 album sales in Japan. This marks SEVENTEEN’s fourth album to reach this milestone.
Additionally, SEVENTEEN’s first Japanese EP “DREAM” has become their first album to receive a million RIAJ certification! Following BoA, Girls’ Generation, and BTS, SEVENTEEN is now the fourth K-pop act in history to record a million-selling album in Japan.
