BLACKPINK, BTS's Jimin, And OH MY GIRL Earn RIAJ Platinum And Gold Certifications For Streaming In Japan
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.
This month, BLACKPINK earned an official platinum certification for the Korean version of their 2017 hit “AS IF IT’s YOUR LAST,” which surpassed 100 million streams in Japan.
Meanwhile, BTS’s Jimin’s solo song “Who” and OH MY GIRL’s beloved 2020 B-side “Dolphin” were both certified gold for reaching 50 million streams each in Japan.
Congratulations to BLACKPINK, Jimin, and OH MY GIRL!
