This is a table of view counts for BLACKPINK’s official music videos. Many of their dance practice videos are also incredibly popular and have hundreds of millions of views, but that’s too much for me to keep track of right now.
NOTE FROM KATHERINE – BLACKPINK has had a LOT of achievements over the past couple years. Since there’s so much information, I decided to break everything down into separate pages. Here are the links for the other pages: Music Show Wins, Sales and Streaming, Billboard Achievements, Other Miscellaneous Achievements, and Awards.

Records:
- BLACKPINK currently holds all of the records for fastest girl group music video to hit a bunch of views, most notably 600 million with “How You Like That.” “DDU-DU DDU-DU” also holds the records for first and fastest K-pop group music video to reach 1 billion through 1.4 billion views. (I’m not going to list all of their records because they’re constantly changing and it’s hard to keep track.)
- “Boombayah” is the first K-pop debut music video to pass over 1 billion views.
- “SOLO” by Jennie is the first K-pop music video by a female soloist to pass 550 million views, which also makes it the most watched music video by a female soloist.
