SEVENTEEN’s Jeonghan and Joshua’s new unit JxJ’s 1st mini album “DREAMSCAPE” received gold certification (100,000 copies or more) in the Gold Disc certifications for the October 2026 period announced today, November 11, by the Recording Industry Association of Japan. This work became No. 1 on the November 2, 2026-dated “Oricon Weekly Album Ranking” and “Oricon Weekly Combined Album Ranking” in its first appearance. In these two rankings, it is the first achievement this year for an album by a unit of overseas male artists to take No. 1. Furthermore, its momentum does not stop, as it also took first place in Billboard JAPAN’s weekly album sales chart “Top Albums Sales,” released on October 28, 2026 (aggregation period: October 19, 2026 to October 25, 2026). “DREAMSCAPE” is an album that contains a dreamscape in which the fantasy within the unconscious that blooms while sleeping and the ideals one wants to achieve in reality are constantly intertwined, collide, and unfold. JxJ removes the boundary between two dreams and leads the listener into sensory ecstasy. “12 o’clock” is a song based on dance rock, a modern reinterpretation of disco and funk from the 1970s and 1980s. A bouncy bass and rhythmic guitar performance harmonize, creating a light and dynamic atmosphere. The appearance of searching for the object of one’s dreams while moving back and forth between the day, when one pursues ideals in reality, and the night, when unconscious fantasies spread, was expressed through Jeonghan and Joshua’s relaxed vocals. In particular, the lyrics, which can be interpreted in various ways depending on the listener, stimulate the imagination and double the power to draw one in. JxJ is scheduled to hold “JEONGHAN X JOSHUA JOURNEY INTO [DREAMING] - JAPAN” at Belluna Dome in Saitama on the 21st and 22nd of this month. The POP-UP STORE for the same performance, “JEONGHAN X JOSHUA JOURNEY INTO [DREAMING] - JAPAN POP-UP STORE,” is also being held in Shibuya, Tokyo until November 23.
