Emma Myers' continued interaction with SEVENTEEN through TV mentions and group photos
Emma Myers admiration for SEVENTEEN has been visible earlier as well. During her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in January 2023, she discussed being a fan of the group. The actress even broke down the meaning behind their name. The 23-year-old recommended the boy band's song To You to viewers, encouraging more people to check out their music.
In December 2023, Myers encountered members of the group directly. She later posted shots with SEVENTEEN’s unit BSS, which includes Seungkwan, Hoshi, and DK. Myers and her sister posed alongside them, even replicating the “Horanghae” hand sign popularized by Hoshi.
Shortly after, more pictures followed. This time, Myers was seen with twelve members of the full group, except Jeonghan. She stood in the center, pictured with the artists in a casual setting. Her caption read, “Say the name,” a phrase widely linked to the K-pop group's signature intro. It's the same image Myers showed in the latest Variety interview.
SEVENTEEN earns first triple platinum for a Japanese single
SEVENTEEN’s fourth Japanese track, Shohikigen, has officially reached triple platinum status, according to a statement from Pledis Entertainment on Thursday, April 9. The Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) granted the certification after shipments exceeded 750,000 units by March 2025.
The single dropped on November 27, 2024. Within weeks, it had already crossed 500,000 in sales, qualifying for double platinum recognition. Continued momentum led it to surpass the next milestone, making it the group’s first Japanese single to achieve this level.
As per the agency, this marks SEVENTEEN’s fifth overall release to earn triple platinum in the Japanese market, though it is the first among their singles to do so. The three-song album opened at No. 1 on Oricon’s daily chart and later dominated its weekly and combined album rankings.
In January 2025, the release reclaimed the top position on the daily chart. They will hold fan meet-and-greet events in Japan on April 24, 26, and 27 at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka. It will be followed by two events on May 10 and 11 at the Saitama Super Arena.
On the global front, SEVENTEEN recently made history as the first K-pop act to headline Tecate Pa’l Norte 2025. The performance took place last Friday, marking the group’s debut at the major Latin American music event.
