BLACKPINK’s ‘Boombayah’ tops 800 mln YouTube views
February 24, 2020
The video for “Boombayah,” the debut single of K-pop girl band BLACKPINK, topped 800 million views on YouTube, making the quartet the only K-pop act with two music videos that have achieved the feat, the band’s management agency said Monday.
The video reached the milestone Monday morning, emulating the band’s earlier “Ddu-du Ddu-du,” according to YG Entertainment.
“With this, BLACKPINK got to own two music videos that have more than 800 million views as the first K-pop group,” according to YG.
BLACKPINK is also the only K-pop band that has a music video with more than 1 billion YouTube views, a feat achieved by “Ddu-du Ddu-du” in November last year.
“Boombayah” was released in August 2016.
Following its last EP, “Kill This Love,” dropped last year, the quartet will unveil a new album in the spring.
