Group Tours (TWS) has obtained its first Gold Disc certification from the Japan Records Association.
According to the Japan Record Association today (15th), Tours' first single "Last Bell" has exceeded 100,000 cumulative shipments as of December 2024, and has been certified as "Gold" for gold discs. The Japan Record Association awards gold disk certification by dividing it into 'gold' (100,000 copies), 'platinum' (250,000 copies), and 'double platinum' (500,000 copies) according to the cumulative monthly album shipment.
This marks the first time Tours has had a gold disc-certified record since its debut. In particular, it is noteworthy that it was achieved through a Korean album even before its official debut in Japan.
Meanwhile, Tours' "Last Bell" was very popular in Japan upon its release in November last year. The single has topped the "Weekly Single Ranking" and "Weekly Total Single Ranking" (December 16) released by Japan's Oricon. In addition, Tours made an impression by appearing in popular year-end broadcasting programs in the region, such as "2024 FNS Song Festival" and "2042 Best Hit Song Festival."
