&TEAM has done it again! The super talented group just scored a massive win, earning a ‘Double Platinum’ certification for their 2nd full-length album Yukiakari from the Japan Record Association.

On January 15 (KST), the Japan Record Association revealed that &TEAM (members EJ, Fuma, K, Nicholas, Yuma, Jo, Harua, Taki, and Maki) achieved this honor for selling over 500,000 copies of Yukiakari. The album, which dropped on November 18, has been a fan favorite since day one!

This new album isn’t just another release—it’s the epic finale of their seasonal album series inspired by the four seasons. The title Yukiakari means "the light reflecting off snow," perfectly capturing the album’s wintery vibe.

But wait, there’s more! The group already hit ‘Double Platinum’ with their earlier releases in this series—Samidare and Aoarashi. Their digital single Jyuugoya also created a buzz, making this series a huge success.

Yukiakari is packed with 22 tracks, including new bangers like Deer Hunter, Illumination, and Crescent Moon’s Wish. It also features Korean versions of their hits, giving fans plenty to love.

The album’s achievements are mind-blowing! It dominated Japan’s Oricon Daily Album Ranking for six days straight (Dec 17–22, 2024) and topped the Weekly Album Ranking on Dec 30. It even claimed the No. 1 spot on Billboard Japan’s Top Album Sales chart for the same week. Talk about unstoppable!

And the good news doesn’t stop there. &TEAM wrapped up 2024 with a bang, winning the Icon Award at the 9th Asia Artist Awards in Bangkok. Their stunning performances of the Korean versions of Yukiakari and Deer Hunter at the event left everyone in awe.

With their top-tier music and jaw-dropping performances, &TEAM is showing the world why they’re the group to watch. Keep an eye on these rising stars because this is just the beginning of their legendary journey.
