"The Name Chapter: Freefall," released on Oct. 13, marks the band's tenth album to be certified by the RIAJ. Previous accolades include platinum certifications for Japanese singles "Magic Hour" (2020), "Drama" (2020), and the EP "The Name Chapter: Temptation." The band's third Japanese single, "Good Boy Gone Bad" (2022), and second Japanese full-length album, "Sweet," have been certified as double platinum.
The album claimed the top spot on Japan's Oricon weekly album chart as of the week of Oct. 9, solidifying Tomorrow X Together's streak of nine consecutive albums reaching No. 1 on the chart. Additionally, the album secured the third position on the Billboard 200 albums chart, making the group the sole K-pop artist with three albums on the chart this year.
Debuting in 2019 under BigHit Music, Tomorrow X Together is recognized for its "storytelling" albums. Comprising five members – Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and Hueningkai – the group released its debut single in Japan, "Magic Hour," in January 2020, shortly after its debut in Korea.
The band is set to hold encore concerts for its second world tour, "Act: Sweet Mirage," at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Guro District, western Seoul, on Dec. 2 and 3.
