It seems that K-pop sensation BTS is poised to create new records ahead of the release of their latest album this week. The boy band has created another record by collecting over 600 million views on YouTube for their Billboard Hot 100 song, Dynamite.
The song was his first full track in English that was loved worldwide by his fans known as Army. The BTS Army has been relentlessly streaming the music video on YouTube and has helped South Korean artists reach this milestone.
With this, they have beaten fellow K-pop group BLACKPINK to reach the 600 million views milestone. Dynamite is also No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week of November 21, making it its 12th week in the Top 20.
BTS has now set a new record for being the longest-running song on the Hot 100 by a South Korean group, which they broke last week. The Hot 100 is a coveted chart that ranks the most popular songs in the United States across all genres, and Dynamite became the first song by any South Korean artist to rule for three non-consecutive weeks at the No. 1 position.
The seven-member group is set to treat their fans to their latest album BE, due out on November 20, 2020. The group also released their first teaser on Tuesday, called Life Goes On. The teaser has garnered more than 11 million views within fifteen hours of its release.
This will be the first time that a music video will be directed by band member Jeon Jungkook. Fans are excited to see how the group’s “golden maknae” will make his directorial debut. The music video teaser shows the band members sitting in a cozy atmosphere in their pajamas. Some fans also pointed to whether the video was filmed in his bedroom, giving off those quarantine vibes.
Fans are eagerly waiting and are already planning their streaming strategies to set a new record for the next album.
