A New Milestone for BLACKPINK: First K-Pop Act with Two Videos Surpassing 1.8 Billion Views

BLACKPINK consistently demonstrates their extensive global reach, continuing to set all-time records on various music charts and platforms such as YouTube and Spotify, despite not releasing any group music this year.

Recently, "Kill This Love," one of BLACKPINK's most significant hits, crossed the threshold of 1.8 billion views on YouTube. This achievement makes it the group's second music video, following "DDU-DU DDU-DU," to accomplish this feat. Consequently, BLACKPINK has solidified their position as the first K-pop artist to have two videos surpass 1.8 billion views in YouTube's history, underscoring their unrivaled digital presence.
