Album Milestones: TXT, NCT WISH, TWS, &TEAM and the Full Million Breakdown
Four groups cleared the top-tier Million threshold in the June 2026 batch, each certified for 1,000,000+ physical copies sold under Circle Chart's system. TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) reached Million with their mini album 7TH YEAR: A Moment of Stillness in the Thorns . A mini album crossing one million is a meaningful marker, since the shorter format typically carries fewer packaging variants than a full-length release, so the count reflects sustained sales velocity rather than a single peak.
NCT WISH's first full-length album, Ode to Love, earned two separate certifications from the same title: the regular version was certified Million (1M+ copies) while the SMC version reached Double Platinum (500,000+ copies) . Circle Chart counts distinct packaging editions independently, so a single release can populate more than one tier of the list.
TWS (투어스) took Million for their mini album NO TRAGEDY, confirming a rapid sales trajectory for a group still early in its career . &TEAM rounded out the Million tier with their Japanese EP We on Fire (1M+ copies) — one of the comparatively rare Japan-market releases to surface in a Circle Chart certification batch .
Below the Million line, the batch was dense with fourth-generation and emerging acts. PLAVE showed the versioned-edition effect clearly: their mini album Caligo Pt.2 reached Triple Platinum (750,000+ copies) in its regular version and Double Platinum (500,000+ copies) in its POCA version — two tiers drawn from one title . ILLIT collected two album certifications, Double Platinum for the 2025 mini album bomb (500,000+ copies) and Platinum for MAMIHLAPINATAPAI (250,000+ copies) .
- NEXZ — single album Mmchk certified Platinum (250,000+ copies)
- MODYSSEY — 1.Got Hooked: An Addictive Symphony certified Platinum (250,000+ copies)
Taken together, the album side of the June batch was carried almost entirely by newer groups, and the repeated appearance of regular, SMC and POCA editions under the same album title shows how packaging variants accumulate into these totals. Exact certified copy figures for every title are maintained on Circle Chart's official certification page.
Streaming Certifications: DAY6, BLACKPINK, LE SSERAFIM and Catalog Longevity
On the streaming side, the June 2026 batch rewarded songs that have accumulated plays over years rather than weeks, led by DAY6's "Time of Our Life," which was certified Double Platinum after surpassing 200 million domestic streams . Released in 2019, the track is the oldest title in this round — a roughly seven-year accumulation that reflects the band's sustained presence in the Korean market .
Two active-era hits reached the entry streaming tier of Platinum, set at 100 million streams: LE SSERAFIM's "Eve, Psyche & The Bluebeard's wife" and BLACKPINK's "Shut Down" were each certified at 100 million-plus streams .
The list also extends beyond idol releases. Veteran vocalists Park Hyo Shin ("Goodbye") and Tei ("Monologue") each earned streaming Platinum at 100 million-plus streams, showing ballad and OST-driven catalog titles reaching the threshold years after their original release .
The pattern is structural, not coincidental. Streaming certifications are eligible for titles released from January 1, 2018 onward, so a single track can be certified long after its original chart peak once its cumulative stream count clears the bar . The complete streaming list is maintained on Circle Chart's official certification page .
What Four Million Certifications in One Month Actually Signals
Four separate Million certifications in one monthly batch is an unusually dense result, and it points to a structural shift rather than a single strong release week. TOMORROW X TOGETHER, NCT WISH, TWS and &TEAM each cleared 1,000,000 copies to earn Circle Chart's top-tier album certification in the June 2026 round . That fourth-generation and emerging groups are sustaining physical sales at this scale — not just spiking on release day — is the clearest read from the batch.
Album-bundle culture directly feeds these totals. Versioned editions each count toward cumulative sales, and this batch makes that mechanic explicit: NCT WISH's "Ode to Love" certified Million in its regular version and Double Platinum in its SMC version, while PLAVE's "Caligo Pt.2" reached Triple Platinum (regular) and Double Platinum (POCA) as two distinct certifications .
The batch also shows K-pop's two engines running at once. Physical volume and streaming are now measured on separate tracks: active idol groups front-load album sales domestically, while catalog titles like DAY6's "Time of Our Life" accumulate streams long after release, crossing 200 million to certify streaming Double Platinum .
For fans tracking exact figures, the record to check is Circle Chart's official certification page, which issues announcements roughly monthly and covers eligible releases back to January 1, 2018 . The takeaway from June 2026 is simple: four Million albums in one month confirms that newer acts, powered by versioned packaging, now sit alongside veteran streaming catalog at the top of the certification list.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Circle Chart Million certification mean?
A Million certification is Circle Chart's top physical-sales tier, awarded when an album sells 1,000,000 or more physical copies as counted by Circle Chart (formerly Gaon) . The tiers below it are Platinum at 250,000 copies, Double Platinum at 500,000, and Triple Platinum at 750,000 . This scale applies only to physical album sales and is separate from streaming certifications.
Why did PLAVE and NCT WISH each receive two separate certifications for the same album?
Circle Chart counts each packaging edition of an album as a distinct product, so different versions of the same title accumulate separate sales tallies and can reach different tiers. NCT WISH's "Ode to Love" earned a Million certification for the regular version and Double Platinum for the SMC version, while PLAVE's "Caligo Pt.2" reached Triple Platinum for the regular version and Double Platinum for the POCA version .
How is streaming certification different from album (physical) certification on Circle Chart?
Streaming certifications track cumulative domestic stream counts rather than copies sold: a song earns Platinum at 100 million streams and Double Platinum at 200 million streams . This is entirely separate from the physical-sales system, so a release can earn both, one, or neither. For example, DAY6's "Time of Our Life" was certified streaming Double Platinum after passing 200 million streams .
When does Circle Chart release its certification announcements?
Circle Chart issues certification announcements roughly monthly, and they are retroactive: releases dating back to January 1, 2018 remain eligible . That eligibility window is why a 2019 song such as DAY6's "Time of Our Life" could be certified in the June 2026 batch. The complete, current list is maintained on Circle Chart's official certification page.
Why is &TEAM's Japanese EP on Circle Chart?
&TEAM is a Hybe Labels Japan group, and Circle Chart's physical-sales tracking can include K-pop acts releasing in the Japanese market. Their Japanese EP "We on Fire" earned a Million certification for surpassing 1 million copies .
