Third to earn platinum this month is rookie group TREASURE‘s second single album released on September 18, 2020, The First Step: Chapter Two. This is a huge accomplishment for such a young group, as they debuted just over a year ago on August 7, 2020!

The last album to be awarded a platinum certification this August is MONSTA X‘s most recent album, One of a Kind. Released just a couple months ago on June 1, 2021, the album has actually surpassed 350,000 sales, 100k more than it needed to earn this certification!

Two albums have received a triple platinum certification this month as well! The first is TXT‘s latest album, The Chaos Chapter: Freeze. Released on May 31 this year, it has sold over 800,000 copies so far, and is well on its way to earning a million certification in the future!

The other album that has now been triple platinum certified is NCT DREAM‘s recently repackaged album, Hello Future. It was released not long ago on June 28, 2021, and it has done remarkably well for a repackaged album to surpass the necessary 750k sales!

Finally, two albums have amazingly earned the million certification this August. The first is EXO‘s most recent, long-awaited comeback album, Don’t Fight The Feeling. No one should be surprised to hear that it has sold about 1.3 million units since it came out on June 7 this year!
