Blackpink has reached another milestone.
This week, the South Korean all-girl group, which consists of Lisa, Rosé, Jennie and Jisoo, became the most-followed musical artist/group on YouTube, accruing a total of 75 million subscribers.
Since joining YouTube in 2016, the year the group debuted, Blackpink has accumulated more than 24 billion views with fewer than 300 videos on their channel. Their top hits such as “Ddu-Du Ddu-Du,” “Kill This Love” and “How You Like That” each have garnered more than 1 billion views each since their respective uploads, becoming the first music group and Korean female act to have five music videos with 1 billion views each.
Throughout their career, Blackpink has broken numerous online records. Their videos for “Kill This Love” and “How You Like That” set records for the most-viewed music video within the 24 hours of release at the time. The top spot is now held by BTS for their “Butter” music video, which was achieved in May 2021.
