TXT, ENHYPEN, RIIZE, and LE SSERAFIM Among Acts Certified by RIAJ in Japan

On September 25, 2026, the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) revealed its latest round of official certifications, and a number of K-pop acts were included in the announcement. The RIAJ awards certifications based on the number of units shipped within Japan, with an album certified gold at 100,000 units, platinum at 250,000, and million at 1,000,000. NCT WISH led this batch with a double platinum certification for its Japanese single album "YO-I-DON! / BOY MEETS GIRL," which surpassed 500,000 units shipped.

Several releases reached platinum status by passing the 250,000-unit threshold. TXT earned the certification for their Japanese single album "Setsuna Hanabi," while ENHYPEN was recognized for their Korean mini album "THE SIN : BLISS." RIIZE also reached platinum with their Japanese single album "Sunburst," alongside TWS's Japanese single album "SODA SODA" and NiziU's Japanese EP "GOOD GIRL BUT NOT FOR YOU."

A further group of releases was certified gold for shipping more than 100,000 units in Japan. Among them were ZEROBASEONE's Japanese EP "KAIKILOVE," LE SSERAFIM's Korean album "PUREFLOW" pt.1, and ALPHA DRIVE ONE's Korean mini album "UNBREAKABLE : 少年BEAST."

The mix of Japanese-language single albums and Korean releases earning certifications reflects the continued reach these acts have in the Japanese market, where both their local releases and their Korean catalog contributed to the shipment totals recognized by the RIAJ in this announcement.
