Big Hit Music announced on September 4 that the music video for BTS's digital single "Dynamite" has surpassed 2 billion views on YouTube.
The "Dynamite" music video, which was released worldwide through the HYBE Labels YouTube channel on August 21, 2020, exceeded 2 billion views as of 9:16 a.m. on this day. This is the first time a BTS music video has reached 2 billion views. After hitting 1.9 billion views in December last year, it gained an additional 100 million views in about nine months.
"Dynamite" is BTS's first English-language single and is a bright and upbeat disco-pop track. The music video features an addictive rhythm, lively performances, and energetic group choreography.
The song recently ranked 34th on Apple Music's list of "Most-Streamed Songs Globally in the Past Decade." BTS is the only K-pop group to appear on the list, with both "Dynamite" and "Butter."
With "Dynamite," BTS became the first Korean artist to top the main Billboard singles chart, the "Hot 100," in the United States, holding the number one spot for a total of three weeks. The group also won "Best Song" at the 2020 MTV Europe Music Awards and "Top Selling Song" at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards, and received the fastest-ever diamond streaming certification (over 500 million streams) from the Recording Industry Association of Japan.
