The Blackpink single that set the template its own successor would beat: a record premiere audience, 56.7 million views in 24 hours, the fastest run to 100 million views at two days and 14 hours. It passed two billion views in September 2024. The record's entry for a record that lasted a year.
Every number attached to this video was broken by the same group's next one, roughly fourteen months later. That is how the premiere era worked.
The premiere figure is often quoted with a decimal place too many. The record gives the concurrent audience as roughly 979,000, not 979 million.
The choreography turned up in dance-studio showreels through 2019 and 2020, taught in eight-counts to classes who had learned it from a phone first.
