When it comes to K-Pop music videos, it’s always exciting to see your favorite artist or song reach big milestones in views.

Here are the latest milestones for K-Pop MVs, by the 100 million mark.
12. “Kill This Love” by BLACKPINK
“Kill This Love” came out on April 4, 2019, and quickly became one of the most-watched K-Pop music videos within the first 24 hours. On September 2, 2020, it became BLACKPINK’s 2nd music video to reach an incredible 1 billion views! It also has 16.2 million likes.
11. “DDU-DU DDU-DU” by BLACKPINK

10. “How You Like That” by BLACKPINK
“How You Like That” came out earlier this year, on June 26. Fans had been waiting forever for the group to have a comeback, and they flocked to the MV when it was released to give it tons of views very quickly! On September 7, 2020, the MV reached the 500 million mile mark in record-breaking time.
9. “WANNABE” by ITZY
“WANNABE” came out on March 9 earlier this year, and the MV from this killer rookie group was an instant hit. It has already surpassed the 100 million views mark, and now, as of September 8, it’s reached over 200 million views as well!
8. “Shine” by PENTAGON
“Shine”, released on April 2, 2018, is by far PENTAGON’s most popular and most-watched music video. On September 21, it finally reached 200 million views, which were very well-deserved — this song is a total bop!
